The objective of this study is to develop a method for alleviating a novel pattern interference toward achieving a robust myoelectric pattern-recognition control system. To this end, a framework was presented for surface electromyogram (sEMG) pattern classification and novelty detection using hybrid neural networks, i.e., a convolutional neural network (CNN) and autoencoder networks. In the framework, the CNN was first used to extract spatio-temporal information conveyed in the sEMG data recorded  via  high-density (HD) 2-dimensional electrode arrays. Given the target motion patterns well-characterized by the CNN, autoencoder networks were applied to learn variable correlation in the spatio-temporal information, where samples from any novel pattern appeared to be significantly different from those from target patterns. Therefore, it was straightforward to discriminate and then reject the novel motion interferences identified as untargeted and unlearned patterns. The performance of the proposed method was evaluated with HD-sEMG data recorded by two 8 × 6 electrode arrays placed over the forearm extensors and flexors of 9 subjects performing seven target motion tasks and six novel motion tasks. The proposed method achieved high accuracies over 95% for identifying and rejecting novel motion tasks, and it outperformed conventional methods with statistical significance ( p  &amp;lt; 0.05). The proposed method is demonstrated to be a promising solution for rejecting novel motion interferences, which are ubiquitous in myoelectric control. This study will enhance the robustness of the myoelectric control system against novelty interference.
