This paper presented a new ant colony optimization (ACO) feature selection method to classify hand motion surface electromyography (sEMG) signals. The multiple channels of sEMG recordings make the dimensionality of sEMG feature grow dramatically. It is known that the informative feature subset with small size is a precondition for the accurate and computationally efficient classification strategy. Therefore, this study proposed an ACO based feature selection scheme using the heuristic information measured by the minimum redundancy maximum relevance criterion (ACO-mRMR). The experiments were conducted on ten subjects with eight upper limb motions. Two feature sets, i.e., time domain features combined with autoregressive model coefficients (TDAR) and wavelet transform (WT) features, were extracted from the recorded sEMG signals. The average classification accuracies of using ACO reduced TDAR and WT features were 95.45±2.2% and 96.08±3.3%, respectively. The principal component analysis (PCA) was also conducted on the same data sets for comparison. The average classification accuracies of using PCA reduced TDAR and WT features were 91.51±4.9% and 89.87±4.4%, respectively. The results demonstrated that the proposed ACO-mRMR based feature selection method can achieve considerably high classification rates in sEMG motion classification task and be applicable to other biomedical signals pattern analysis. |
