用Transformer+U-Net提升肌电图去噪效果,适应多种干扰场景。

TrustEMG-Net: Using Representation-Masking Transformer with U-Net for Surface Electromyography Enhancement

  • 融合U-Net与带表征掩码的Transformer,构建自编码去噪网络。
  • 在五类干扰下均提升20%以上,信噪比低至-14 dB仍有效。
  • 适合医疗康复、人机交互等需高精度肌电信号的应用。

表面肌电图(sEMG)通过皮肤电极捕捉肌肉活动,但非侵入式测量使其易受多种干扰影响。现有去噪方法多依赖启发式优化,对干扰类型敏感。本文提出新型神经网络方法TrustEMG-Net,结合U-Net与基于表征掩码的Transformer,利用深度网络的非线性映射能力实现数据驱动去噪。在Ninapro数据库上,针对五类常见干扰和信噪比(SNR)范围从-14到2 dB的条件进行评估,相比已有方法,在五个评价指标上均实现至少20%的性能提升,且在各类干扰和噪声水平下表现一致稳定。消融实验验证了模型设计的有效性,证明其可为医疗与人机交互等应用提供高效、鲁棒、通用的sEMG去噪方案。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Surface electromyography (sEMG) is a widely employed bio-signal that captures human muscle activity via electrodes placed on the skin. Several studies have proposed methods to remove sEMG contaminants, as non-invasive measurements render sEMG susceptible to various contaminants. However, these approaches often rely on heuristic-based optimization and are sensitive to the contaminant type. A more potent, robust, and generalized sEMG denoising approach should be developed for various healthcare and human-computer interaction applications. This paper proposes a novel neural network (NN)-based sEMG denoising method called TrustEMG-Net. It leverages the potent nonlinear mapping capability and data-driven nature of NNs. TrustEMG-Net adopts a denoising autoencoder structure by combining U-Net with a Transformer encoder using a representation-masking approach. The proposed approach is evaluated using the Ninapro sEMG database with five common contamination types and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) conditions. Compared with existing sEMG denoising methods, TrustEMG-Net achieves exceptional performance across the five evaluation metrics, exhibiting a minimum improvement of 20%. Its superiority is consistent under various conditions, including SNRs ranging from -14 to 2 dB and five contaminant types. An ablation study further proves that the design of TrustEMG-Net contributes to its optimality, providing high-quality sEMG and serving as an effective, robust, and generalized denoising solution for sEMG applications.
