Comparison of Machine Learning Techniques for Activities of Daily Living Classification with Electromyographic Data.

Advances in data science and wearable robotic devices present an opportunity to improve rehabilitation outcomes. Some of these devices incorporate electromyography (EMG) electrodes that sense physiological patient activity, making it possible to develop rehabilitation systems able to assess the patient's progress when performing activities of daily living (ADLs). However, additional research is needed to improve the ability to interpret EMG signals.
