Abstract

Recently, obesity that is increasingly becoming a major cause of various diseases is emerging as a serious social problem. In order to solve this problem, the necessity of measurement systems for overweight management has increased. This paper is a study on the measurement system for obesity management that can offer right medical services everywhere and allways by analyzing EMG (electromyograph) of the abdomen and then checking one's health state. For analyzing EMG signals of the abdomen, algorithms for energy detection, signal feature extraction, classification and recognition are presented. This paper proposes a system that provides an appropriate an estimation on the health status by evaluating the obesity degree and muscular strength of the abdomen through the system applying these algorithms.
