Different sEMG and EEG Features Analysis for Gait phase Recognition

摘要

This research focuses on the gait phase recognition using different sEMG and EEG features. Seven healthy volunteers, 23-26 years old, were enrolled in this experiment. Seven phases of gait were divided by three-dimensional trajectory of lower limbs during treadmill walking and classified by Library for Support Vector Machines (LIBSVM). These gait phases include loading response, mid-stance, terminal Stance, pre-swing, initial swing, mid-swing, and terminal swing. Different sEMG and EEG features were assessed in this study. Gait phases of three kinds of walking speed were analyzed. Results showed that the slope sign change (SSC) and mean power frequency (MPF) of sEMG signals and SSC of EEG signals achieved higher accuracy of gait phase recognition than other features, and the accuracy are 95.58% (1.4 km/h), 97.63% (2.0 km/h) and 98.10% (2.6 km/h) respectively. Furthermore, the accuracy of gait phase recognition in the speed of 2.6 km/h is better than other walking speeds.
