EMG Signal Classification Using Reflection Coefficients and Extreme Value Machine

Electromyography is a promising approach to the gesture recognition of humans if an efficient classifier with high accuracy is available. In this paper, we propose to utilize Extreme Value Machine (EVM) as a high-performance algorithm for the classification of EMG signals. We employ reflection coefficients obtained from an Autoregressive (AR) model to train a set of classifiers. Our experimental results indicate that EVM has better accuracy in comparison to the conventional classifiers approved in the literature based on K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM).
