Abstract

In this paper, a feature vector is extracted from an elec-tromyography (EMG) signal at a wrist, and the EMG signals based on 7 motions are recognized. In order to perform good pattern recognition, it is desirable that the distance in feature vector between classes is far, and that the variance in a class is small. In consideration of these, important frequency bands of EMG signals are selected by using a genetic algorithm. We use the selected frequency band to perform the recognition experiment of EMG signal by a neural network. Finally, the effectiveness of this method is demonstrated by means of computer simulations.
