This study introduces a novel method for recognizing sketching gestures using surface electromyographic (sEMG) signals. Gene Expression Programming (GEP) achieved high accuracy in identifying basic shapes from muscle activity, offering a promising new approach for design and human-computer interaction.

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Human-Computer Interaction
  • Machine Learning

Background:

  • Sketching is crucial in early design stages, but analyzing associated muscle signals (sEMG) is underexplored.
  • Previous research focused on sketching outcomes, neglecting the underlying physiological data.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate a method for identifying basic one-stroke sketching shapes using sEMG signals.
  • To compare the effectiveness of Gene Expression Programming (GEP) against other machine learning models for this task.

Main Methods:

  • Extracted time-domain features from sEMG data of forearm and upper arm muscles during sketching.
  • Utilized Principal Component Analysis for dimensionality reduction.
  • Classified eleven basic sketching shapes using GEP, comparing its performance with Back Propagation Neural Network (BPNN) and Elman Neural Network (ENN).

Main Results:

  • A shorter analysis window (250 ms) improved recognition rates by approximately 6.4% compared to a longer window (2500 ms).
  • The GEP classifier achieved an average recognition rate of 96.26% on the training set and 95.62% on the test set.
  • GEP outperformed both BPNN and ENN classifiers, demonstrating robustness across different analysis window lengths.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed GEP model shows significant promise for accurately recognizing sketching gestures based on sEMG signals.
  • This approach offers a new avenue for understanding and potentially augmenting the design process through physiological data analysis.
