Detrended fluctuation analysis of electromyography signal to identify hand movement

TLDR
Examination of the use of Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (DFA), a novel parameter, to study the properties of sEMG signal and to use these properties to identify the hand movements shows that DFA is suitable to feature extraction for multifunction myoelectric control.
Abstract
Recent advances in nonlinear analysis techniques are essential to understand the complexity of surface Electromyography (sEMG) signal. This research examines the use of Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (DFA), a novel parameter, to study the properties of sEMG signal and to use these properties to identify the hand movements. The experimental results of mean and standard deviation show that the scaling exponents of DFA in various hand motions have the significant difference values and small experimental variation. Cluster-to-cluster distance and scatter plot between scaling exponents of hand movements were demonstrated that DFA is suitable for sEMG feature extraction to characterize the sEMG signal. The application of this parameter is use to feature extraction for multifunction myoelectric control.

Quantification of scaling exponents and crossover phenomena in nonstationary heartbeat time series

TL;DR: A new method--detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA)--for quantifying this correlation property in non-stationary physiological time series is described and application of this technique shows evidence for a crossover phenomenon associated with a change in short and long-range scaling exponents.

Effect of trends on detrended fluctuation analysis.

TL;DR: It is shown how to use DFA appropriately to minimize the effects of trends, how to recognize if a crossover indicates indeed a transition from one type to a different type of underlying correlation, or if the crossover is due to a trend without any transition in the dynamical properties of the noise.

Classification of surface EMG signal with fractal dimension

TL;DR: The results showed that the fractal dimensions of filtered FS surface EMg signals and those of filtered FP surface EMG signals distribute in two different regions, so the Fractal dimensions can represent different patterns of surfaceEMG signals.
