This paper illustrates the classification of EMG signals of hand grasps namely
coin, cylinder, tripod and ball hand grasps through design and optimization of
Artificial neural networks by considering various combination of 2, 3 and 4 hand
grasps at its output, different hidden neurons and training data . ANN models of
different types are structured with many interconnected network elements with
multiple neurons in the intermediate layer simulating low level functions of
biological neurons which can develop pattern classification strategies based on set
of input/output training data. With comparison to traditional classifiers, ANN
models provide higher computational performance because they operate in parallel
compared to functioning sequentially. This paper describes a novel approach to
know the amount of training data and hidden neurons to be required for the
artificial neural network in achieving higher classification accuracy for classifying
different hand grasps. The EMG signals collected for different hand grasps, which
further conditioned by optimized EMG onset detection algorithm with window size
of 25 and then processed to extract temporal features such as Mean absolute value
(MAV), Zero crossings (ZC), Waveform length (WL) and Slope sign changes
(SSC). These extracted features are then used to train the artificial neural network.

Levenberg-Marquardt back propagation training algorithm has been used for
classification of EMG signals of different hand grasps. The results of this study
shows that the classification accuracy of the neural networks in classifying hand
grasps when considered 2, 3 and 4 hand grasps at its output has been increased by
increasing the training data within certain limit and also observed that the number
of hidden neurons to be used in the neural networks depend upon the number of
hand grasps to classify and training data.
