Today, human-computer interfaces are increasingly more often used and become necessary for human daily activities. Among some remarkable applications, we find: Wireless-computer controlling through hand movement, wheelchair directing/guiding with finger motions, and rehabilitation. Such applications are possible from the analysis of electromyographic (EMG) signals. Despite some research works have addressed this issue, the movement classification through EMG signals is still an open challenging issue to the scientific community -especially, because the controller performance depends not only on classifier but other aspects, namely: used features, movements to be classified, the considered feature-selection methods, and collected data. In this work, we propose an exploratory work on the characterization and classification techniques to identifying movements through EMG signals. We compare the performance of three classifiers (KNN, Parzen-density-based classifier and ANN) using spectral (Wavelets) and time-domain-based (statistical and morphological descriptors) features. Also, a methodology for movement selection is proposed. Results are comparable with those reported in literature, reaching classification errors of 5.18% (KNN), 14.7407% (ANN) and 5.17% (Parzen-density-based classifier).
