사용자가 제스처를 통해 입력을 할 수 있는 방안들 중에서 근전도(EMG, Electromyography)를 통한 제스처 인식은 근육 내 작은 전극을 통해 사용자의 움직임을 감지하고 이를 입력 방법으로 사용할 수 있는 방법이다. EMG 데이터를 통해 사용자 제스처를 분류하기 위해서는 사용자로부터 수집된 EMG Raw 데이터를 머신러닝으로 학습하여야 하는데 이를 위해서는 EMG 데이터를 전처리 과정을 통해 특징을 추출하여야 한다. EMG 특성은 IEMG(Integrated EMG), MAV(Mean Absolute Value), SSI(Simple Sqaure Integral), VAR(VARiance), RMS(Root Mean Square) 등과 같은 수식을 통해서 나타낼 수 있다. 또한, 제스처를 입력으로 사용하기 위해서는 사용자가 입력하는 데 필요한 지각, 인지, 반응에 필요한 시간을 기준으로 제스처 분류가 가능한 시간을 알아내야 한다. 이를 위해 최대 1,000ms에서 최소 100ms까지 세그먼트 사이즈를 변화시켜 특징을 추출 후 제스처 분류가 가능한 세그먼트 사이즈를 찾아낸다. 특히 데이터 학습은 overlapped segmentation 방법을 통해 데이터와 데이터 사이 간격을 줄여 학습 데이터 개수를 늘린다. 이를 통해 KNN, SVC, RF, XGBoost 4가지 머신러닝 방식을 통해 이를 학습하고 결과를 도출한다. 실험 결과 실시간으로 사용자의 제스처 입력이 가능한 최대 세그먼트 사이즈인 200ms에서 KNN, SVC, RF, XGboost 4가지 모든 모델에서 96% 이상의 정확도를 도출하였다.

The purpose of this study was to compare the muscle activities of Double Legged Jump (DLJ) and Single Legged Jump (SLJ) by the normalization of muscle activity. Eight college students without the lower extremity injuries were selected as subjects for collecting EMG data of vastus medialis and gastrocnemius. The entire section of motion was established as eccentric and concentric contractions, and each of the contractions was divided into three sections with equal timing intervals, which becomes a total of 6 phases. The EMG data of each phase was integrated and normalized. The muscle activities of the vastus medialis for both eccentric and concentric contractions were significantly different between DLJ and SLJ(p<.05). The increase in overall muscle activity of SLJ was 33.6%. Approximately, there was an increase of 25.9% in eccentric contraction and 40% in concentric contraction. Moreover, the data of the muscle activity of gastrocnemius was similar to the data of the muscle activity of vastus medialis. In conclusion, this research suggests muscle activity of a certain motion can be normalized for an analysis of another motion.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of forefoot rocker shoes equipped with a metatarsal bar on lower extremity muscle activity and plantar pressure distribution. Ten healthy women in the age of twenties were participated in this study as the subjects. All subjects walked on a treadmill(Gait Trainer, BIODEX, USA) wearing normal shoes and metatarsal bar shoes, during which the plantar pressure distribution and muscle activity were measured. Using Pedar-X system(Novel Gmbh, Germany), the plantar pressure was measured for six regions of the foot: forefoot, midfoot, rearfoot, 1st metatarsal, 2-3th metatarsal, and 4-5th metatarsal, and for each sub-region, 4 features such as maximum force, contact area, peak pressure, and mean pressure were analyzed based on the plantar pressure. EMG(Electromyography) activity was measured by attaching surface electrodes to the rectus femoris, biceps femoris, tibialis anterior, and gastrocnemius medial head, and magnitude of muscle contraction was analyzed in IEMG(Integrated EMG) value. The results show that the maximum force, contact area, peak pressure, and mean pressure in the midfoot all increased while maximum force, peak pressure, contact area, mean pressure in the 1st metatarsal and 2-3th metatarsal all decreased when wearing functional shoes. Also, muscle activities in the four muscles were all decreased when wearing the functional shoes. This paper suggests that forfoot rocker shoes equipped with a metatarsal bar can help disperse the high pressure and absorb the shock to the foot as well as give positive influence on gait pattern and postural stability by reducing muscle fatigue during walking.
