MOTOR MODULES OF HUMAN LOCOMOTION: INFLUENCE OF EMG AVERAGING, CONCATENATION AND NUMBER OF GAIT CYCLES

Locomotion can be investigated by factorization of electromyographic (EMG) signals, e.g. with non-negative matrix factorization (NMF). This approach is a convenient concise representation of muscle activities as distributed in motor modules, activated in specific gait phases. For applying NMF, the E...
