Title
High-Density Surface Electromyogram-Based Biometrics For Personal Identification
Abstract
Surface electromyogram (sEMG) has been widely applied in neurorehabilitation techniques such as humanmachine interface (HMI). The individual difference of sEMG characteristics has long been a challenge for multi-user HMI. However, the individually unique sEMG property indicates its high potential as a biometrics modality. In this work, we propose a novel application of high-density sEMG (HD-sEMG) for personal identification. HD-sEMG can decode the high-resolution spatial patterns of muscle activations, besides the widely studied temporal features, thus providing more sufficient information. We acquired 64-channel HD-sEMG signals on the dorsum of the right hand from 22 subjects during finger muscle isometric contractions. We achieved an accuracy of 99.5% to recognize the identity of each subject, demonstrating the excellent performance of HD-sEMG for personal identification. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to employ HD-sEMG for personal identification.
