Abstract

Electromyography (EMG) is the bio-signal generated in muscles during their activities. EMG is used by clinicians to examine and diagnose the muscles activity, for commanding myo-prosthesis to help amputees overcome their disabilities as well as for human machine interaction applications. These fascinating applications require the classification of the EMG signals into categories depending on the targeted application. In this paper, we tackle hand gesture recognition based on EMG signal, which may be used for different tasks. We design two deep convolutional neural networks, evaluate and compare their performances on the NinaPro dataset. The proposed models show interesting results.
