Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) A surface EMG (sEMG) is useful to evaluate muscular activity. In my previous works, I proposed the signal power feature and the frequency feature calculated with redundant wavelet coefficients of an sEMG, and estimated muscular activity by the composite of those feature. And in the other previous work, I proposed the fatigue coefficient which denotes the influence quantity of muscular fatigue. If we can directly estimate the fatigue influence, we may also estimate the effective power of the muscular activity under the fatigue influence. In this paper, I define the basic factors based on the features proposed in my previous works. Those features denote the quantity or quality of the muscular tissues or nervous system. And I propose the systematization of those factors and the coefficients (e.g. the effective power coefficients including the fatigue influence) which are composites of some or all of the factors.
