EMG and Joint Angle-Based Machine Learning to Predict Future Joint Angles at the Knee [PDF]
Sensors, 2021 Electromyography (EMG) is commonly used to measure electrical activity of the skeletal muscles. As exoskeleton technology advances, these signals may be used to predict human intent for control purposes. This study used an artificial neural network trained and tested with knee flexion angles and knee muscle EMG signals to predict knee flexion angles ...

Gait Recognition Using Joint Moments, Joint Angles, and Segment Angles [PDF]
Journal of Forensic Biomechanics, 2010 Recognition of gait patterns has been studied only moderately during the last decades. Different gait strategies have been described by applying different waveform anal- ysis techniques to biomechanical gait data and it has been shown that individuals can be identified using joint angles in the sagittal plane.
