Hand Gesture Recognition (HGR) using electromyography (EMG) signals is a challenging problem due to the variability and noise in the signals across individuals. This study addresses this challenge by examining the effect of incorporating a post-processing algorithm, which filters the sequence of predictions and removes spurious labels, on the performance of a HGR model based on spectrograms and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN). The study also compares CNN vs CNN-LSTM to assess the influence of the memory cells on the model. The EMG-EPN-612 dataset, which contains measurements of EMG signals for 5 hand gestures from 612 subjects, was used for training and testing. The results showed that the post-processing algorithm increased the recognition accuracy by 41.86% for the CNN model and 24.77% for the CNN-LSTM model. The inclusion of the memory cells increased accuracy by 3.29%, but at the cost of 53 times more learnables. The CNN-LSTM model with post-processing achieved a mean recognition accuracy of 90.55% (SD=9.45%). These findings suggest new paths for research in HGR architectures beyond the traditional focus on the classification and feature extraction stages. For reproducibility purposes, we made publicly available the source code in Github. |
