EEG and sEMG Decoding of Gait Spatiotemporal Parameters Based on Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory Neural Network
To solve the problem of low correlation between continuous gait trajectory decoding results and actual trajectory by electroencephalography(EEG)signals
a gait parameter decoding method based on bidirectional long short-term memory(BiLSTM)neural network is proposed. Firstly
a gait spatiotemporal parameter decoding model based on this neural network is constructed
and the hyperparameters of the decoding model are designed according to the characteristics of EEG and surface electromyography(sEMG). Secondly
EEG
lower limb movement-related sEMG and lower limb joint movement signals are collected synchronously
and gait features of EEG and sEMG signals are analyzed. Thirdly
multi-channel EEG and lower limb movement-related sEMG signals are used as input of the decoding model
and gait related features are extracted automatically from EEG and sEMG fusion signals
and the nonlinear regression model between ankle joint motion and gait related features is constructed. Finally
a nonlinear regression model between gait related EEG signals and sEMG signals is constructed with multi-channel EEG as the input of the decoding model. The results show that compared with traditional support vector machines
the Pearson correlation coefficient of shape similarity between decoded trajectory and measured trajectory is improved by 0.12. Compared with the decoding methods using EEG
sEMG and fusion average absolute value of EEG-sEMG
the proposed method improves the Pearson correlation coefficient of shape similarity between decoded trajectory and measured trajectory by 0.81
0.19 and 0.63
respectively. Our decoding method can realize decoding of part of sEMG waveform
the average Pearson correlation coefficient of decoded waveform and measured waveform is close to 0.5. It shows that the sEMG signals can be decoded from EEG signal which provides a new idea for the application of active continuous control of lower extremity exoskeleton
