Forthcoming articles have been peer-reviewed and accepted for publication but are pending final changes, are not yet published and may not appear here in their final order of publication until they are assigned to issues. Therefore, the content conforms to our standards but the presentation (e.g. typesetting and proof-reading) is not necessarily up to the Inderscience standard. Additionally, titles, authors, abstracts and keywords may change before publication. Articles will not be published until the final proofs are validated by their authors.

Forthcoming articles must be purchased for the purposes of research, teaching and private study only. These articles can be cited using the expression "in press". For example: Smith, J. (in press). Article Title. Journal Title.

  • Research on lower limb action classification under different windows based on neural network   Order a copy of this article
    by Zhisheng Wang, Hongsheng Liu, Xianyu Meng, Guohua Cao 
    Abstract: In the evolving field of human-computer interaction technology for intelligent prosthetics, the utilisation of Electromyography (EMG) signals for lower limb action recognition has garnered significant interest. This study focuses on classifying lower limb actions by capturing EMG signals from two leg muscles across varying window sizes. The process involves collecting these signals through a specialised signal acquisition system, followed by data processing using MATLAB to create datasets of lower limb actions corresponding to different window durations. Subsequently, these datasets are analysed using a Backpropagation (BP) neural network, facilitating the determination of average resolution accuracy for lower limb actions across diverse window sizes. Notably, a truncated window size of 90, integrating four key eigenvalues, yields an accuracy rate of 89.6%in resolving lower limb actions.
    Keywords: lower limb action; signal acquisition system; MATLAB; BP neural network; prosthetics; EMG.
