Self-Correcting Pattern Recognition System of Surface EMG Signals for Upper Limb Prosthesis Control

Pattern recognition methods for classifying user motion intent based on surface electromyography developed by research groups in well-controlled laboratory conditions are not yet clinically viable for upper limb prosthesis control, due to their limited robustness in users' real-life situations. To address this problem, a novel postprocessing algorithm, aiming to detect and remove misclassifications of a pattern recognition system of forearm and...
