Article Abstract

Objective: To assess the advantage of using the sEMG signal for establishing the mathematical model of lower limb movement and evaluating the improvement in the jumping ability of basketball players as the ultimate target strength. Also, to evaluate its use it in the training of lower limb strengthening of basketball players.

Methods: In this study conducted from March 1, 2019 to June 1, 2019, 30 professional male basketball players were selected as the subjects, gait analysis was carried out when they finished the three-step layup in 15 minutes. Acquisition and noise reduction process of the collected sEMG signals were first filtered by band-pass filter to eliminate the noise outside the frequency, then suppressed by the spectral interpolation method, and finally subjected to wavelet transformation.

Results: The lower limb muscle group was activated once in a cycle. The anterior and posterior thigh muscle groups, and anterior Tibial muscles were activated in the early stage, increased to the maximum value and then decreased gradually; the long and short muscles attached to the fibula were activated in the middle stage, and decreased rapidly.

Conclusions: The research results of sEMG signal showed that the torque intensity of the front and back thigh muscles is greater than that of other muscle groups. Strengthening the training is helpful to enhance the jumping ability of basketball players.

Recognizing hand gestures from surface electromyography (sEMG) signals is crucial for neural interfaces and human-machine interaction. However, developing subject-generic models remains challenging due to substantial inter-subject variability. Complicating matters further, the muscle groups driving gestures with varying degrees of freedom (DoFs) often overlap, producing highly convoluted feature distributions across subjects and DoFs.

Force prediction is crucial for functional rehabilitation of the upper limb. Surface electromyography (sEMG) signals play a pivotal role in muscle force studies, but its non-stationarity challenges the reliability of sEMG-driven models. This problem may be alleviated by fusion with electrical impedance myography (EIM), an active sensing technique incorporating tissue morphology information.

Surface electromyography (sEMG) holds great potential in walking function evaluation. Compressed sensing (CS) leverages the sparsity of signals to decrease the number of samples required. In this study, a sEMG CS algorithm for spinal cord injury (SCI) patients based on regularized orthogonal matching pursuit (ROMP) was introduced.

Understanding muscle synergy variability and its clinical relevance in rotator cuff tear (RCT) patients is crucial for elucidating motor control mechanisms and informing rehabilitation. This study uses non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) to assess the influence of age and pathological factors on synergy patterns during abduction (ABD) and flexion (FL) tasks. Fifteen young controls (YC), fifteen elderly controls (EC), and twenty elderly RCT patients were recruited.

Limb loss affects millions globally, impairing physical function and reducing quality of life. Most traditional surface electromyographic (sEMG) and semi-autonomous methods require users to generate myoelectric signals for each control, imposing physically and mentally taxing demands. This study aims to develop a fully autonomous control system that enables a prosthetic hand to automatically grasp and release objects of various shapes using only a camera attached to the wrist.
