Abstract
In this paper a new neural network model, time delayed counterpropagation neural networks (TDCPN) which have high recognition rate and short total learning time, is proposed for electromyogram(EMG) recognition. Signals the proposed model increases the recognition rates after learned the regional temporal correlation of patterns using time delay properties in input layer, and decreases the learning time by using winner-takes-all learning rule. The ouotar learning rule is put at the output layer so that the input pattern is able to map a desired output. We test the performance of this model with EMG signals collected from a normal subject. Experimental results show that the recognition rates of the suggested model is better and the learning time is shorter than those of TDNN and CPN.
