Abstract
We propose a method of pattern classification of electromyographic (EMG) signals using a set of self- organizing feature maps (SOFMs). The proposed method is simple to apply in that the EMG signals are directly input to the SOFMs without preprocessing. Experimental results are presented that show the effectiveness of the SOFM based classifier for the recognition of the hand signal version of the Korean alphabet from EMG signal patterns.
