用可穿戴传感器数据,用Transformer模型实时预测步态中下肢关节角度和力矩。

A Novel Transformer-Based Method for Full Lower-Limb Joint Angles and Moments Prediction in Gait Using sEMG and IMU data

  • 设计双Transformer网络,分别预测运动学与动力学参数。
  • 相关系数超0.96,决定系数超0.92,误差比基准方法降低一个数量级。
  • 适合可穿戴设备、假肢控制等实时生物力学应用。

本研究提出一种基于Transformer的深度学习框架,利用表面肌电(sEMG)和惯性测量单元(IMU)信号,实现对步态中全下肢关节角度和关节力矩的长时程预测。设计了两个独立的Transformer神经网络:一个用于运动学预测,另一个用于动力学预测。模型以实时应用为目标,仅使用适用于实验室外环境的可穿戴传感器。评估了短时与长时两种预测时域表现。在两项任务中均达到高精度,所有关节的斯皮尔曼相关系数均超过0.96,决定系数高于0.92。值得注意的是,该模型在关节角度预测上显著优于近期基准方法,均方根误差(RMSE)降低了一个数量级。结果证实了sEMG与IMU信号在捕捉运动学与动力学信息方面的互补性。本工作展示了基于Transformer模型在可穿戴与机器人应用中实现实时全肢体生物力学预测的潜力,未来方向包括输入最小化与模态特定加权策略,以提升模型效率与精度。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

This study presents a transformer-based deep learning framework for the long-horizon prediction of full lower-limb joint angles and joint moments using surface electromyography (sEMG) and inertial measurement unit (IMU) signals. Two separate Transformer Neural Networks (TNNs) were designed: one for kinematic prediction and one for kinetic prediction. The model was developed with real-time application in mind, using only wearable sensors suitable for outside-laboratory use. Two prediction horizons were considered to evaluate short- and long-term performance. The network achieved high accuracy in both tasks, with Spearman correlation coefficients exceeding 0.96 and R-squared scores above 0.92 across all joints. Notably, the model consistently outperformed a recent benchmark method in joint angle prediction, reducing RMSE errors by an order of magnitude. The results confirmed the complementary role of sEMG and IMU signals in capturing both kinematic and kinetic information. This work demonstrates the potential of transformer-based models for real-time, full-limb biomechanical prediction in wearable and robotic applications, with future directions including input minimization and modality-specific weighting strategies to enhance model efficiency and accuracy.
