- Abstract:
-
To achieve accurate pattern recognition of hand motions, in this study, we first denoised collected electromyogram (EMG) signals, and then used a variance algorithm in the time domain to extract features from the collected signals. After normalizing the characteristic signal, in the experiment, we found that the general BP neural network classifier has a slow learning rate, poor generalization ability, and large differences in its accuracy of recognizing diverse motions. To address the above problems, we propose an improved BP neural network that processes its input data by artificially increasing the dimensions. It then theoretically determines the reason for the slow network learning rate, and introduces a cross-entropy cost function to regularize it, thereby improving the network’s generalization ability and increasing its reaction speed. Experimental results show that the improved BP neural network has a better learning speed, generalization ability, and accuracy in hand motion classification than the ordinary neural network, with an average recognition accuracy of 94.34%.
