Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Rehabilitation Technology
  • Wearable Sensor Technology

Background:

  • Lower limb activity recognition is crucial for daily living assistance for the elderly, weak, disabled, and sick.
  • Current methods require effective monitoring of ambulatory activities.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the feasibility of using surface electromyography (sEMG) and inertial measurement units (IMUs) for daily ambulation mode recognition.
  • To determine optimal fusion features and machine learning classifiers for this purpose.

Main Methods:

  • Recorded sEMG and IMU signals from 18 participants across four ambulatory activities using wearable sensors.
  • Extracted and selected features using the Markov Random Field based Fisher-Markov feature selector.
  • Evaluated four machine learning classifiers with feature combinations using sensitivity, precision, and accuracy.

Main Results:

  • Selected features showed statistically significant differences across the four ambulation modes.
  • Principal Component Analysis reduced feature dimensions for an input to a Support Vector Machine classifier.
  • The fusion feature input Support Vector Machine achieved good classification performance for ambulatory activities.

Conclusions:

  • Machine learning classification models are feasible for recognizing daily ambulatory activities.
  • This approach offers a novel method to improve recognition rates and monitoring effectiveness.
  • The findings support enhanced monitoring and care for individuals with mobility limitations.
