Abstract 

This study explores the potential of electromyography (EMG) decoding to enhance motor function outcomes, focusing on developing an innovative EMG-based hand movement classification system. Leveraging advanced signal processing and machine learning techniques, our objectives are twofold: (1) optimize EMG decoding performance through time-domain windowing, feature selection, and classifier optimization, and (2) assess the system's effectiveness in classifying 15 distinct finger movements. With a validation accuracy of 99.98%, this research contributes to the development of more accurate myoelectric control systems, improving rehabilitation outcomes and quality of life for individuals with neurological disorders.

Instructions: 

A computer-based system utilizing the Delsys Trigno Avanti EMG system recorded EMG signals from 15 distinct finger movements. The system features wearable, wireless EMG sensors with a proprietary electrode configuration, enabling high-resolution muscle activity detection. Key features include adjustable EMG bandwidth, on-board signal processing, and seamless integration with IMU data. The compact, durable Trigno Avanti sensor is ideal for movement sciences, physical therapy, and sports science applications. Participants completed a brief screener survey to assess eligibility.
