Comparing EMG-Based Human-Machine Interfaces for Estimating Continuous, Coordinated Movements

Electromyography (EMG)-based interfaces are trending toward continuous, simultaneous control with multiple degrees of freedom. Emerging methods range from data-driven approaches to biomechanical model-based methods. However, there has been no direct comparison between these two types of continuous EMG-based interfaces. The aim of this study was to compare a musculoskeletal model (MM) with two data-driven approaches, linear regression (LR) and...
