The gait analysis has been applied in many fields, such as the assessment of falling, force evaluation in sports, and gait disorder detection for neuromuscular diseases. Its main recording techniques include video cameras and wearable sensors. Howeve...

Multilevel attention mechanism for motion fatigue recognition based on sEMG and ACC signal fusion.

PloS one
This study aims to develop a cost-effective and reliable motion monitoring device capable of comprehensive fatigue analysis. It achieves this objective by integrating surface electromyography (sEMG) and accelerometer (ACC) signals through a feature f...

From Simulation to Reality: Predicting Torque With Fatigue Onset via Transfer Learning.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Muscle fatigue impacts upper extremity function but is often overlooked in biomechanical models. The present work leveraged a transfer learning approach to improve torque predictions during fatiguing upper extremity movements. We developed two artifi...

MEFFNet: Forecasting Myoelectric Indices of Muscle Fatigue in Healthy and Post-Stroke During Voluntary and FES-Induced Dynamic Contractions.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Myoelectric indices forecasting is important for muscle fatigue monitoring in wearable technologies, adaptive control of assistive devices like exoskeletons and prostheses, functional electrical stimulation (FES)-based Neuroprostheses, and more. Non-...

A Novel Approach to Detecting Muscle Fatigue Based on sEMG by Using Neural Architecture Search Framework.

IEEE transactions on neural networks and learning systems
Muscle fatigue detection is of great significance to human physiological activities, but many complex factors increase the difficulty of this task. In this article, we integrate several effective techniques to distinguish muscle states under fatigue ...

Soft pneumatic elbow exoskeleton reduces the muscle activity, metabolic cost and fatigue during holding and carrying of loads.

Scientific reports
To minimize fatigue, sustain workloads, and reduce the risk of injuries, the exoskeleton Carry was developed. Carry combines a soft human-machine interface and soft pneumatic actuation to assist the elbow in load holding and carrying. We hypothesize ...

On the Impact of Biceps Muscle Fatigue in Human Activity Recognition.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Nowadays, Human Activity Recognition (HAR) systems, which use wearables and smart systems, are a part of our daily life. Despite the abundance of literature in the area, little is known about the impact of muscle fatigue on these systems' performance...

Adaptive robot mediated upper limb training using electromyogram-based muscle fatigue indicators.

PloS one
Studies on improving the adaptability of upper limb rehabilitation training do not often consider the implications of muscle fatigue sufficiently. In this study, electromyogram features were used as fatigue indicators in the context of human-robot in...

Identification of the best strategy to command variable stiffness using electromyographic signals.

Journal of neural engineering
OBJECTIVE: In the last decades, many EMG-controlled robotic devices were developed. Since stiffness control may be required to perform skillful interactions, different groups developed devices whose stiffness is real-time controlled based on EMG sign...

Muscle endurance time estimation during isometric training using electromyogram and supervised learning.

Journal of electromyography and kinesiology : official journal of the International Society of Electrophysiological Kinesiology
UNLABELLED: Constant-force isometric muscle training is useful for increasing the maximal strength , rehabilitation and work-fatigue assessment. Earlier studies have shown that muscle fatigue characteristics can be used for evaluating muscle enduranc...
