Abstract:
Classification of electromyography (EMG) signals using machine learning has been studied for a long time. Today, this classification is tried to be made more accurate, fast and applicable by using the methods developed. However, beside this effort, it is suspected that researchers are using features without taking into account the effects on the classification performance, but often by influence of other researches. From this point of view, the effects of some features used in studies published in recent years on classification performance were tested and the results obtained were shared. In the experiments performed using a common method support vector machine (SVM), it was found that increasing the number of features does not always provide an increase in performance, even in some cases, it causes a decrease in accuracy rates.
