EMG technology finds diverse applications including enhancing human–computer interaction, enabling muscle-controlled devices for hand gesture recognition, facilitating prosthetic control for individuals with disabilities and elder care. Hand gestures are crucial for human–computer interaction, bridging the gap between human intent and machine control. Their significance has obtained considerable attention, leading to the development of advanced detection systems. These systems facilitate effective interaction between humans and computers, thereby enhancing various applications across different domains. Current research on EMG-based hand gesture classification encounters challenges such as inaccurate classification, and limited generalization ability. To encounter these problems, an automated multi-class hand gestures identification model is proposed via machine intelligence. A publicly accessible UCI2019 EMG dataset obtained from 8-channels MYO thalmic bracelet for surface EMG data acquisition is used to demonstrate the work. Initially, the multivariate EMG channels data are pre-processed and then fed to machine learning classifiers. Six classifiers are evaluated for the proposed predictive model, with ensemble bagged tree (EBT) consistently outperforming (overall highest accuracy of 98.4%) than other classification approaches. The superior performance of EBT classifier in overall classification and class wise classification are exhibited through receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. Hence, this computer-assisted decision-making model minimizes the limitations of prior studies by offering gesture based human–machine interaction and smart device control for elder care. The proposed research can also offer valuable contributions to manufacturing by facilitating tasks in the industry such as remote operation, quality control, and maintenance by enabling hands-free control and reducing the physical strain on workers.</p>","PeriodicalId":14359,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Precision Engineering and Manufacturing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142195155","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, identification of circuit parameters usually requires specialized equipment (such as an electrochemical workstation) to perform impedance measurements, which are cost and time consuming. In this study, an equivalent circuit model of ECM was established, and a simple method was adopted to identify the circuit parameters by analyzing time variation of the voltage and current waveforms between the workpiece and tool. The obtained circuit parameters were applied to the equivalent circuit model in the circuit simulation software, and the simulated current waveforms were compared with the experimentally obtained waveforms to verify the reliability of parameter identification. Furthermore, the established model was applied to ECM with a diode, which was usually inserted to the circuit to suppress the reverse current and reduce the tool wear in PECM.

The results show that the accuracy of the prediction model is better than that of ANN and GA-BP neural networks. The single factor prediction results of abrasive belt wear height show that the wear height of abrasive belt increases with the increase of driving wheel cylinder pressure and decreases with the increase of tension cylinder pressure. The wear height increases first and then decreases with the increase of the linear speed of the abrasive belt, and increases with the increase of the axial feed speed of the abrasive belt. The improved AO algorithm to optimize BP neural network prediction model can provide a theoretical basis for selecting process parameters of screw rotors in grinding belt.

An effective method for dynamic characteristic prediction and analysis of various tools is receptance coupling substructure analysis. Precision receptance coupling substructure analysis requires a frequency response function for the rotational degrees of freedom. Although computing the full receptance matrix, which includes rotational degrees of freedom, is possible through mathematical methods or finite element method, it is time-intensive and impractical for industrial applications due to the need for additional sensor attachments or other attachments on machinery. This study proposes a new approach for the receptance coupling substructure analysis of cutting tools and holders, aiming to efficiently predict and couple the full receptance matrix of cutting tools under free-free condition. The proposed methodology divides the cutting tool into several substructures and employs receptance coupling based on Euler–Bernoulli beam theory, thereby estimating the full receptance matrix of the subassembly. This approach also enables the prediction of dynamic characteristics of the system through inverse receptance coupling with a holder. We validated the accuracy of the methodology using the finite element method and experimental methods. The full receptance matrix of the machine tool and the estimated cutting tools were coupled and experimentally verified. In addition, the applicability of the proposed methodology is ensured by performing receptance coupling for various tool overhang lengths.

Muscle activity in the thoracic/lumbar erector spinae and multifidus muscles was measured using electromyography. The study also assessed the usability of the exoskeleton.
