S-Convnet: A shallow convolutional neural network architecture for neuromuscular activity recognition using instantaneous high-density surface EMG images
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The recent progress in recognizing low-resolution instantaneous high-density surface electromyography (HD-sEMG) images opens up new avenues for the development of more fluid and natural muscle-computer interfaces. However, the existing approaches employed a very large deep convolutional neural network (ConvNet) architecture and complex training schemes for HD-sEMG image recognition, which requires learning of ˃5.63 million(M) training parameters only during fine-tuning and pre-trained on a very large-scale labeled HD-sEMG training dataset, as a result, it makes high-end resource-bounded and computationally expensive. To overcome this problem, we propose S-ConvNet models, a simple yet efficient framework for learning instantaneous HD-sEMG images from scratch using random-initialization. Without using any pre-trained models, our proposed S-ConvNet demonstrate very competitive recognition accuracy to the more complex state of the art, while reducing learning parameters to only ≈ 2M and using ≈ 12 × smaller dataset. The experimental results proved that the proposed S-ConvNet is highly effective for learning discriminative features for instantaneous HD-sEMG image recognition, especially in the data and high-end resource-constrained scenarios.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
