Extraction and analysis of multiple time window features associated with muscle fatigue conditions using sEMG signals

作者:

Highlights:

• Applicability of MTW features in muscle fatigue analysis is studied.

• sEMG signals under fatigue and non-fatigue conditions are recorded and are found to be distinguishable.

• The features represent non-stationary and time-dependant energy variations of sEMG signals associated with fatigue.

• Feature values are distinct in both the conditions.

• MTW features provides better classification accuracy than currently employed time and frequency domain features.
