Abstract

In this paper, we suggested the combination of HMM(Hidden Markov Model) and MLP (Multi-Layer Perceptron) with GA(genetic algorithm) for a recognition of EMG signals. To describe EMG signal's dynamic properties, HMM algorithm was adapted and due to its outstanding abilities in static signal classification MLP was connected as a real processor. We also used GA( Genetic Algorithm) for improving MLP's learning rate. Experimental results showed that the suggested classifier gave higher EMG signal recognition rates with faster learning time than other one.
