Surface electromyogram (sEMG) dataset recorded from forearm for 9 hand movements and three electrode array positions

<p>This repository contains raw surface Electromyography signals termed surface Electromyograms (<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromyography">sEMG</a>) recorded with 8 circular surface Ag/AgCl pairs of electrodes placed circumferentially around the forearm of the dominant arm in 10 able-bodied individuals (5 Females and 5 Males). The proposed method for processing sEMG data with subjects&#39; characteristics and protocol can be found in <a href="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bspc.2020.102292">Miljković &amp; Isaković 2021</a>.</p> <p>For each subject, sEMG was recorded from <strong>three recording electrode array positions</strong> termed P1, P2, and P3 for 9 hand movements. We provide a compressed .7z folder with 10 sub-folders for each subject named by <strong>subject ID</strong> (ID1, ID2, ... ID10). Each sub-folder contains 27 .txt data files (for 9 movements &times; 3 electrode array positions), except for subject&nbsp; ID7 (there are 24 .txt records, since three records for wrist extension EX in P1, P2, and P3 positions got corrupted in subject ID7).

Attempted Arm and Hand Movements can be Decoded from Low-Frequency EEG from Persons with Spinal Cord Injury

<p>We show that persons with spinal cord injury (SCI) retain decodable neural correlates of attempted arm and hand movements. We investigated hand open, palmar grasp, lateral grasp, pronation, and supination in 10 persons with cervical SCI. Discriminative movement information was provided by the time-domain of low-frequency electroencephalography (EEG) signals. Based on these signals, we obtained a maximum average classification accuracy of 45% (chance level was 20%) with respect to the five investigated classes. Pattern analysis indicates central motor areas as the origin of the discriminative signals. Furthermore, we introduce a proof-of-concept to classify movement attempts online in a closed loop, and tested it on a person with cervical SCI. We achieved here a modest classification performance of 68.4% with respect to palmar grasp vs hand open (chance level 50%).</p>

Calibrated kinematic Ninapro hand movements data

<p>The kinematic data of the Ninapro (Non Invasive Adaptive Prosthetics) database&nbsp; includes calibrated kinematic data from 77 subjects, performing 40 hand movements and grasps. The whole database aims at allowing worldwide research groups to study hand kinematics. As well the dataset allows also to study the relationship between hand kinematics and muscle activity, since it is linked to sEMG datasets. The final goal of this work is to aid the progress in rehabilitation, physiotherapy, medicine, neuroscience and prosthetics. Therefore, the kinematic database improves the state of the art, being the most accurate, comprehensive and advanced reference for the largest kinematic database existing at the time of writing.&nbsp;<br> <br> <strong>Acquisition protocol</strong>:<br> Hand kinematics was measured using a 22-sensor CyberGlove II dataglove (CyberGlove Systems LLC,&nbsp;<a href="http://www.cyberglovesystems.com/">www.cyberglovesystems.com</a>). The CyberGlove is a motion capture data glove, instrumented with joint-angle measurements. It uses proprietary resistive bend-sensing technology to transform hand and finger motions into real-time digital joint-angle data.<br> <br> The calibrated kinematic Ninapro database includes 40 different movements of 77 intact subjects.<br> The subjects have to repeat several movement represented by movies that are shown on the screen of a laptop.<br> The experiment is divided in two exercises:<br> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &bull; Isometric, isotonic hand configurations and basic wrist movements<br> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &bull; Grasping and functional movements<br> Joint angles from raw data were calculated according to a very detailed calibration protocol. The protocol was previously applied to 10 different intact subjects and consists in recording 64 different poses or guided movements to obtain the gains and also some corrections because of cross-coupling effects for specific anatomical angles.</p> <p>Gracia-Ib&aacute;&ntilde;ez, V., Vergara, M., Buffi, J.
