Abstract

Several methods have been developed in biomedical signal processing to extract the envelope and features of electromyography (EMG) signals and predict human motion. Also, efforts were made to use this information to improve the interaction of a human body and artificial protheses. The main operations here are envelope acquiring, artifacts filtering, estimate smoothing, EMG value standardizing, feature classifying, and motion recognizing. In this paper, we employ EMG data to extract the envelope with a highest Gaussianity using the rectified signal, where we deal with the absolute EMG signals so that all values become positive. First, we remove artifacts from EMG data by using filters such as the Kalman filter (KF), H1 filter, unbiased finite impulse response (UFIR) filter, and the cKF, cH1 filter, and cUFIR filter modified for colored measurement noise. Next, we standardize the EMG envelope and improve the Gaussianity. Finally, we extract the EMG signal features to provide an accurate prediction.
