Finger Movement Recognition based on Muscle Synergy using Electromyogram

Motor functions of human hand during daily living activities involve multiple finger movements, which has not yet been fully explored for electromyogram (EMG) based prosthesis control. This paper presents a framework based on forearm muscle synergy for recognition of finger movement using four channel EMG. With five normal-limbed subjects, synergy of four forearm muscles was estimated for five finger movements through non-negative matrix...
