Electromyographic (EMG) signals have been used to control active prosthetic arms for amputees. One of the obstacles in making such prosthetic arms is the timed estimation of posture, because EMG signals and muscle movements are not necessarily synchronized. We estimated the finger motions for trumpet players by using both surface EMG (sEMG) and the timing information using body motion. The algorithms...
Frequency domain analyses of changes in electromyographic (EMG) signals over time are frequently used to assess muscle fatigue. Fourier based approaches are typically used in these analyses, yet Fourier analysis assumes signal stationarity, which is unlikely during dynamic contractions. Wavelet based methods of signal analysis do not assume stationarity and may be more appropriate for joint time-frequency...
In this paper, we present a novel approach for decoding electromyographic signals from an amputee and for interfacing them with a prosthetic wrist. The model for the interface makes use of electromyographic signals from electrodes placed in agonistic and antagonistic sides of the forearm. The model decodes these signals in order to control both the position and the stiffness of the wrist.

This paper presents a silent-speech interface based on electromyographic (EMG) signals recorded in the facial muscles. The distinctive feature of this system is that it is based on the recognition of syllables instead of phonemes or words, which is a compromise between both approaches with advantages as (a) clear delimitation and identification inside a word, and (b) reduced set of classification...
