In this paper, we present an evaluation of an adaptation of the Antonyan Vardan Transform (AVT) used in combination with an Extreme Learning Machines (ELM) classifier to process surface electromyography (sEMG) data used to classify six finger movements and a rest state. A total of 12 assays formed by three repetitions performed by four volunteers is analyzed. Additionally, a sample-by-sample output label comparison was performed to make a more comprehensive analysis of the system which was tested on a PC and embedded on a Rasp.berry Pi platform. Compared to literature papers, our system was capable to match or outperform similar solutions even using a simpler model, reaching mean accuracy rates above 94.
