目的:估计肘关节角度和提高模型的速度和精度。方法:建立并研究基于表面肌电信号(Surface electromyogram,sEMG) 的 Elman 神 经 网 络(Elman neural network,ENN), 通 过 在 肱 二 头 肌(Biceps muscle,BM)和肱三头肌(Triceps muscle,TM)的皮肤表面上放置电极来采集 sEMG 信号,并通过惯性测量单元(Inertial measurement unit,IMU)记录实际的肘关节角度。结果:通过实验结果以及基于模型阶数和隐层神经元数量的参数讨论, 进一步证明了 ENN 可达到的最小均方根(Root mean square,RMS)误差为 18.1899 度。结论:在最优的参数下应用ENN估计肘关节角度时,均方根误差达到了可控范围。理论分析和实验结果都证明 ENN在估计关节角度方面是有效的。

Objective: To estimate the elbow joint angle and improve the rapidity and precision of the model. Methods: The elman neural network (ENN) based on surface electromyogram (sEMG) was established and investigated. The sEMG signals were collected by the electrodes placed on the skin surfaces of biceps muscle (BM) and triceps muscle (TM), and the actual elbow joint angle was recorded by an inertial measurement unit (IMU). Results: Theoretical analysis indicates that the ENN is feasible to be employed for estimating the elbow joint angle. Experimental results and the parameter discussion based on the model order and the number of hidden layer neurons further indicate that the minimum RMS error of ENN is 18.1899 degree. Conclusion: The RMS error is controllable when the ENN is used to estimate the elbow joint angle under the optimal parameter. Theoretical analysis and experimental results shows that the ENN is effective in estimation of joint angles.
