In the field of noncontact human-computer interaction, it is of crucial importance to distinguish different surface electromyography (sEMG) gestures accurately for intelligent prosthetic control. Gesture recognition based on low sampling frequency sEMG signal can extend the application of wearable low-cost EMG sensor (for example, MYO bracelet) in motion control. In this paper, a combination of sEMG gesture recognition consisting of feature extraction, genetic algorithm (GA), and support vector machine (SVM) model is proposed. Particularly, a novel adaptive mutation particle swarm optimization (AMPSO) algorithm is proposed to optimize the parameters of SVM; moreover, a new calculation method of mutation probability is also defined. The AMPSO-SVM model based on combination processing is successfully applied to MYO bracelet dataset, and four gesture classifications are carried out. Furthermore, AMPSO-SVM is compared with PSO-SVM, GS-SVM, and BP. The sEMG gesture recognition rate of AMPSO-SVM is 0.975, PSO-SVM is 0.9463, GS-SVM is 0.9093, and BP is 0.9019. The experimental results show that AMPSO-SVM is effective for low-frequency sEMG signals of different gestures.

This paper presents the application of Gaussian blur filters and Support Vector Machine (SVM) techniques for greeting recognition among the Yoruba tribe of Nigeria. Existing efforts have considered different recognition gestures. However, tribal greeting postures or gestures recognition for the Nigerian geographical space has not been studied before. Some cultural gestures are not correctly identified by people of the same tribe, not to mention other people from different tribes, thereby posing a challenge of misinterpretation of meaning. Also, some cultural gestures are unknown to most people outside a tribe, which could also hinder human interaction; hence there is a need to automate the recognition of Nigerian tribal greeting gestures. This work hence develops a Gaussian Blur – SVM based system capable of recognizing the Yoruba tribe greeting postures for men and women. Videos of individuals performing various greeting gestures were collected and processed into image frames. The images were resized and a Gaussian blur filter was used to remove noise from them. This research used a moment-based feature extraction algorithm to extract shape features that were passed as input to SVM. SVM is exploited and trained to perform the greeting gesture recognition task to recognize two Nigerian tribe greeting postures. To confirm the robustness of the system, 20%, 25% and 30% of the dataset acquired from the preprocessed images were used to test the system. A recognition rate of 94% could be achieved when SVM is used, as shown by the result which invariably proves that the proposed method is efficient.

AbstractA three-descriptor quantitative structure–activity/toxicity relationship (QSAR/QSTR) model was developed for the skin permeability of a sufficiently large data set consisting of 274 compounds, by applying support vector machine (SVM) together with genetic algorithm. The optimal SVM model possesses the coefficient of determination R2 of 0.946 and root mean square (rms) error of 0.253 for the training set of 139 compounds; and a R2 of 0.872 and rms of 0.302 for the test set of 135 compounds. Compared with other models reported in the literature, our SVM model shows better statistical performance in a model that deals with more samples in the test set. Therefore, applying a SVM algorithm to develop a nonlinear QSAR model for skin permeability was achieved.

In this paper, a customizable wearable 3D-printed bionic arm is designed, fabricated, and optimized for a right arm amputee. An experimental test has been conducted for the user, where control of the artificial bionic hand is accomplished successfully using surface electromyography (sEMG) signals acquired by a multi-channel wearable armband. The 3D-printed bionic arm was designed for the low cost of 295 USD, and was lightweight at 428 g. To facilitate a generic control of the bionic arm, sEMG data were collected for a set of gestures (fist, spread fingers, wave-in, wave-out) from a wide range of participants. The collected data were processed and features related to the gestures were extracted for the purpose of training a classifier. In this study, several classifiers based on neural networks, support vector machine, and decision trees were constructed, trained, and statistically compared. The support vector machine classifier was found to exhibit an 89.93% success rate. Real-time testing of the bionic arm with the optimum classifier is demonstrated.

This paper presents a method that combines Shuffled Frog Leaping Algorithm (SFLA) with Support Vector Machine (SVM) method in order to identify the fault types of rolling bearing in the gearbox. The proposed method improves the accuracy of fault diagnosis identification after processing the collected vibration signals through wavelet threshold denoising. The global optimization and high computational efficiency of SFLA are applied to the SVM model. Simulation results show that the SFLA-SVM algorithm is effective in fault diagnosis. Compared with SVM and Particle Swarm Optimization SVM (PSO-SVM) algorithms, it is demonstrated that the SFLA-SVM algorithm has the advantages of better global optimization, higher accuracy, and better reliability of diagnosis. Its accuracy is further improved through the integration of the wavelet threshold denoising method.

In order to effectively improve the accuracy of Consumer Price Index (CPI) prediction so as to more truly reflect the overall level of the country’s macroeconomic situation, a CPI big data prediction method based on wavelet twin support vector machine (SVM) is proposed. First, the historical CPI data are decomposed into high-frequency part and low-frequency part by wavelet transform. Then a more advanced twin SVM is used to build a prediction model to obtain two kinds of prediction results. Finally, the wavelet reconstruction method is used to fuse the two kinds of prediction results to obtain the final CPI prediction results. The wavelet twin SVM model is used to fit and predict CPI index. Experimental results show that compared with the similar prediction methods, the proposed prediction method has higher fitting accuracy and smaller root mean square error.

A hybrid support vector machine (SVM) and hidden Markov model (HMM) model was introduced into the fault diagnosis of pump. This model had double layers: the first layer used HMM to classify preliminarily in order to get the coverage of possible faults; the second layer utilized this information to activate the corresponding SVMs for improving the recognition accuracy. The structure of this hybrid model was clear and feasible. Especially the model had the potential of large-scale multiclass application in fault diagnosis because of its good scalability. The recognition experiments of 26 statuses on the ZLH600-2 pump showed that the recognition capability of this model was sound in multiclass problems. The recognition rate of one bearing eccentricity increased from SVM’s 84.42% to 89.61% while the average recognition rate of hybrid model reached 95.05%. Although some goals while model constructed did not be fully realized, this model was still very good in practical applications.

Support Vector Machine (SVM) is one of the most popular and effective data mining algorithms which can be used to resolve classification or regression problems, and has attracted much attention these years. SVM could find the optimal separating hyperplane between classes, which afford outstanding generalization ability with it. Usually all the labeled records are used as training set. However, the optimal separating hyperplane only depends on a few crucial samples (Support Vectors, SVs), we neednt train SVM model on the whole training set. In this paper a novel SVM model based on K-means clustering is presented, in which only a small subset of the original training set is selected to constitute the final training set, and the SVM classifier is built through training on these selected samples. This greatly decrease the scale of the training set, and effectively saves the training and predicting cost of SVM, meanwhile guarantees its generalization performance.

Research on human motion gesture recognition has been widely used for several technological devices to support monitoring of human-computer interaction, elderly people and so forth. This research area can be observed by conducting experiments for several body movements, such as hand movements, or body movements as a whole. Many methods have been used for human motion gesture recognition in previous studies. This paper attempted to collect data of performance evaluation of support vector machine algorithms for human motion recognition. We developed research methodology that is adapted PRISMA. This methodology is consisted of four main steps for reviewing scientific articles, including identification, screening, eligibility and inclusion criteria. After we obtained result of systematic literature review. We also conducted pilot study of SVM implementation for human gesture recognition. Based on the previous study result, the accuracy performance of vector machine algorithms for body gesture dataset is between 82.88% - 99.92% and hand gesture dataset 88.24% - 95.42%. Based on our pilot experiment, recognition accuracy with the SVM algorithm for human gesture recognition achieved 94,50% (average) accuracy.
