Abstract

In this paper, we propose the use of Collaborative based Representation in Spectral Domain to recognize the postures and gestures from the Electromyography (EMG) recordings acquired by a recently introduced sensor; Thalmic Labs' MYO armband. The recognition accuracy obtained for a set of six hand gestures and postures is promising with an accuracy over 97 % which is a competent result in the related literature. The algorithms are developed for creating an intuitive human machine interface for navigating a robotic wheelchair.
