A review on EMG-based motor intention prediction of continuous human upper limb motion for human-robot collaboration

TL;DR: A comprehensive review of EMG-based motor intention prediction of continuous human upper limb motion, which will cover the models and approaches used in continuous motion estimation, the kinematic motion parameters estimated from EMG signal, and the performance metrics utilized for system validation.

The role of muscle synergies in myoelectric control: trends and challenges for simultaneous multifunction control

TL;DR: The role of muscle synergies in myoelectric control schemes is reviewed by dissecting each component of the scheme with respect to associated challenges for achieving robust simultaneous control of myoelectedric interfaces.

Single-Channel EMG Classification With Ensemble-Empirical-Mode-Decomposition-Based ICA for Diagnosing Neuromuscular Disorders

TL;DR: The present work focuses on a classification method for neuromuscular disorders that deals with the data recorded using a single-channel EMG sensor that decomposes the single-Channel EMG signal into a set of noise-canceled intrinsic mode functions, which in turn are separated by the FastICA algorithm.

The Use of Surface Electromyography in Biomechanics

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored the various uses of surface electromyography in the field of biomechanics, including those involving the activation timing of muscles, the force/EMG signal relationship, and the use of the EMG signal as a fatigue index.

Data on the distribution of fibre types in thirty-six human muscles: An autopsy study

TL;DR: In this paper, the mean fibre type proportions of each muscle were examined and the spatial distribution of the fibre types was examined in order to determine whether this was random or not, and the number of closed fibers observed in the actual samples was compared statistically with the number expected to occur in a hexagonal lattice model, assuming a random distribution.

Muscles alive, their functions revealed by electromyography

TL;DR: The first logical deduction of muscle-generated electricity was first documented by Italian Francesco Redi in 1666 as discussed by the authors, who suspected that thenshock of the electric ray fish was muscular in origin and wrote, lIt appeared to me as if the painful action was located innthese two sickle-shaped bodies, or muscles, more than any other part of the body.

Physiological types and histochemical profiles in motor units of the cat gastrocnemius.

TL;DR: Intracellular stimulation of individual motoneurones ensured functional isolation of the muscle units innervated by them in pentobarbitone‐anaesthetized cats.

The extraction of neural strategies from the surface EMG

TL;DR: The review describes the limitations of techniques used to infer the level of muscle activation, the type of motor unit recruited, the upper limit ofMotor unit recruitment, the average discharge rate, and the degree of synchronization between motor units.
