Abstract

Robotic hand control systems based on biological signals aim to improve the accuracy, robustness and naturalness of motion analysis. In the article, the classification of finger movements and the provision of robotic hand control with motion estimation using attribute variables are discussed. It is ensured that the performance values of the models are increased by comparing the machine learning models for multi-DOF finger control and training the data set created using the hybrid model data collection system. The developed models are used in multi-DOF control, which is specially designed for certain amputees users to use robotic hands effectively. The movements of servo motors are provided by using the prediction outputs of machine learning models for multi-DOF control with advanced methods. MLP and SVM machine learning algorithms are used for control models with accuracy rates of 99.15% and 97.47%, respectively. Vector filtered motion data of each movement applied externally to the data set is provided with robotic hand movements with the operation of the developed models. Finger movements in the range of 0-128 degrees of motion, such as closing towards the wrist and opening outward from the wrist with a metal toothed servo motor from each finger, are provided by the developed interpolation control method.

Özet

Biyolojik sinyallere dayalı robotik el kontrol sistemleri hareket analizinin doğruluğunu, sağlamlığını ve doğallığını iyileştirmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Makalede parmak hareketlerinin sınıflandırılmasını ve öznitelik değişkenlerini kullanarak hareket tahmini ile robotik el kontrolü konu edinilmektedir. Çoklu DOF parmak kontrolü için makine öğrenme modellerinin karşılaştırması ve hibrit model veri toplama sistemi kullanılarak oluşturulan veri setinin eğitilmesi ile modellerin performans değerlerinin yükseltilmesi sağlanmaktadır. Geliştirilen modeller, belirli ampute birey kullanıcılarının etkili bir şekilde robotik el kullanabilmesi için özel olarak tasarlanmış çoklu DOF kontrolünde kullanılmaktadır. Gelişmiş yöntemlerle makine öğrenme modellerinin tahmin çıktıları kullanılarak servo motorların hareketleri sağlanmaktadır. Doğruluk oranları sırasıyla %99,15 ve %97,47 olan kontrol modelleri için MLP ve SVM makine öğrenmesi algoritmaları kullanılmaktadır. Veri setine haricen uygulanan her bir hareketin vektörel filtrelenmiş hareket verisi, geliştirilen modelerin çalışması ile robotik el hareketleri sağlanmaktadır. Her bir parmaktan metal dişli servo motor ile el bileğine doğru kapanma ve el bileğinden dışa doğru açılma gibi 0-128 derece hareket aralığında parmak hareketleri geliştirilen interpolasyon kontrol yöntemi ile sağlanmaktadır.
