    This study introduces a novel channel selection method using fast orthogonal search (FOS) to enhance force estimation from surface electromyogram (sEMG) signals. The technique successfully reduces data dimensionality and improves force prediction accuracy.

    Area of Science:

    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Rehabilitation Engineering
    • Signal Processing

    Background:

    • Surface electromyogram (sEMG) signals are crucial for non-invasive biomechanical analysis.
    • Accurate force estimation from sEMG is vital for prosthetic control and rehabilitation.
    • High-dimensional sEMG data can pose challenges for real-time processing and accuracy.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To propose and evaluate a novel channel selection method for improving force estimation accuracy.
    • To reduce the dimensionality of sEMG data while preserving essential information.
    • To leverage fast orthogonal search (FOS) and principle component analysis (PCA) for optimal channel selection.

    Main Methods:

    • Acquisition of sEMG signals from biceps brachii and brachioradialis during isometric contractions.

    • Dimensionality reduction was achieved while enhancing the accuracy of estimated wrist-induced force.
    • Selected channels showed the highest contribution to the first principal component (PC).

    Conclusions:

    • The developed channel selection technique significantly improves force estimation accuracy from sEMG.
    • This method offers a computationally efficient approach for real-time biomechanical applications.
    • The integration of PCA and FOS provides a robust framework for sEMG-based force prediction.
