چکیده

AbstrartWavelet analysis is a new method for analyzing t h e and frequency contents of signals. We present the Fast Wavelet Transform (FWT) implemented using Rwavelets and non-circular convolutions in the analysis of Motor Unit Action Potentials (MUAPs). This method allows for the fast extraction of localized frequency components of MUAPs that may prove to be valuable in the early and accurate diagnosis of neuromuscular disorders.

Comparative Analysis of Wavelet-based Feature Extraction for Intramuscular EMG Signal Decomposition

Background: Electromyographic (EMG) signal decomposition is the process by which an EMG signal is decomposed into its constituent motor unit potential trains (MUPTs). A major step in EMG decomposition is feature extraction in which each detected motor unit potential (MUP) is represented by a feature vector. As with any other pattern recognition system, feature extraction has a significant impac...

Can Wavelet Denoising Improve Motor Unit Potential Template Estimation?

Background: Electromyographic (EMG) signals obtained from a contracted muscle contain valuable information on its activity and health status. Much of this information lies in motor unit potentials (MUPs) of its motor units (MUs), collected during the muscle contraction. Hence, accurate estimation of a MUP template for each MU is crucial. Objective: To investigate the possibility of improv...
