| Abstract | We propose a new framework for extracting information from extrinsic muscles in the forearm that will allow a continuous, natural and intuitive control of a neuroprosthetic devices and robotic hands. This is achieved through a continuous mapping between muscle activity and joint angles rather than prior discretisation of hand gestures. We instructed 6 able-bodied subjects, to perform everyday object manipulation tasks. We recorded the Electromyographic (EMG) and Mechanomyographic (MMG) activities of 5 extrinsic muscles of the hand in their forearm, while simultaneously monitoring 11 joints of hand and fingers using a sensorised glove. We used these signals to train a Gaussian Process (GP) and a Vector AutoRegressive Moving Average model with Exogenous inputs (VARMAX) to learn the mapping from current muscle activity and current joint state to predict future hand configurations. We investigated the performances of both models across tasks, subjects and different joints for varying time-lags, finding that both models have good generalisation properties and high correlation even for time-lags in the order of hundreds of milliseconds. Our results suggest that regression is a very appealing tool for natural, intuitive and continuous control of robotic devices, with particular focus on prosthetic replacements where high dexterity is required for complex movements. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
