This repository aims to publish a sEMG database for hand gesture recongnition, which is suitable for intra-session, inter-session, inter-day and inter-subject tests. Six subjects were involved in data collection on ten days, and two sessions a day with the interval of half an hour. In each session, one trial (10 secondes) for each geature was conducted. The electrode sleeve did not reweared between two sessions in a day. The utilised sEMG device was customised by the Intelligent System and Biomedical Robotics Group, which was discussed in [1].
# ISRMyo-I: A Database for sEMG-based Hand Gesture Recognition
## Introduction
The published sEMG database was captured by the Intelligent System and Biomedical Robotics Group at University of Portsmouth, leaded by Prof. Honghai Liu.
Six subjects were volunteered for data capturing, and the sEMG data were captured in ten separate days. We manually separated the whole database into two parts: training dataset (the first 7 days) and testing dataset(the last 3 days). For each subject, two folders exist, one for training and the other for test.
