Abstract

An electromyography processing apparatus 1 includes a storage device 10 that stores electromyography data 11 of a predetermined muscle, and a balance indicator processing unit 28 that calculates a root-mean-square value of the electromyography for each predetermined time, repeats a process for each of pieces of electromyography data of each of a plurality of muscles, the process being of outputting, as a balance evaluation value of the predetermined muscle, a value acquired by subjecting, to time differentiation, the time course of an average value of the root-mean-square value in a sliding window for calculating balance evaluation value, and outputs a balance indicator based on a balance evaluation value of each of the plurality of muscles.

Claims (20)

1 .- 3 . (canceled)

4 . An electromyography processing apparatus configured to process electromyography data indicating a time course of an electromyography acquired from an electrode set to a predetermined muscle of an athlete, the electromyography processing apparatus comprising:

a storage device configured to store electromyography data of a plurality of muscles; and

a balance indicator processing unit configured to output a balance indicator based on a degree of synchronization of a transition of an electromyography of each of the muscles.

5 . The electromyography processing apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein

the balance indicator processing unit is configured to output the balance indicator based on a degree of divergence of a differential value of the electromyography of each of the muscles at a predetermined time.

6 . (canceled)

7 . An electromyography processing method of processing electromyography data, performed by a computer, indicating a time course of an electromyography acquired from an electrode set to a predetermined muscle of an athlete, the electromyography processing method comprising:

storing electromyography data of a plurality of muscles; and

outputting a balance indicator based on a degree of synchronization of a transition of an electromyography of each of the muscles.

8 . (canceled)

9 . The electromyography processing apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein

the balance indicator processing unit is configured to calculate a root-mean-square value of the electromyography for each predetermined time, repeats a process for each of pieces of electromyography data of each of a plurality of muscles, the process being outputting, as a balance evaluation value of the predetermined muscle, a value acquired by subjecting, to time differentiation, the time course of an averaged value of the root-mean-square value in a sliding window for calculating balance evaluation value and outputs the balance indicator based on a balance evaluation value of each of the plurality of muscles.

10 . The electromyography processing apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein

the balance indicator processing unit is configured to output, if a difference between a maximum value and a minimum value among the balance evaluation values of individual muscles at a predetermined time is large, a balance indicator indicating that a balance of the muscle is inappropriate at the predetermined time.

11 . The electromyography processing apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein

the balance indicator processing unit is configured to output a balance indicator indicating that a muscle having a smaller balance evaluation value than balance evaluation values of other muscles does not move appropriately based on the balance evaluation value of each of the muscles at the predetermined time.

12 . A recording medium storing an electromyography processing program, where executing of the electromyography processing program causes one or more computers to perform operations comprising:

storing electromyography data of a plurality of muscles; and

outputting a balance indicator based on a degree of synchronization of a transition of an electromyography of each of the muscles.
