Abstract

The application discloses a surface electromyogram signal action recognition method based on transfer learning and a support vector machine in the technical field of upper limb action recognition, and aims to solve the problems that the accuracy is poor when the prior art recognizes upper limb actions, and the generalization ability of the model is poor. It comprises the following steps: collecting surface electromyogram signals corresponding to actions, and pre-processing the collected surface electromyogram signals; converting the pre-processed surface electromyogram signals into corresponding frequency spectrum graphs through short-time Fourier transform, and splicing the corresponding frequency spectrum graphs along the vertical direction to obtain a data set; inputting the obtained data set into a pre-trained classification model based on transfer learning and a support vector machine, outputting a classification result corresponding to the surface electromyogram signals through the classification model; the application is suitable for action recognition, and the method has high accuracy when recognizing upper limb actions, strong model generalization ability, and high practicability.
