EMG Decomposition and Artefact Removal
نویسندگان
چکیده
Traditionally, in clinical electromyography (EMG), neurophysiologists assess the state of the muscle by studying basic units of an EMG signal, which are referred to as motor unit action potentials (MUAPs). Information regarding themorphology and rate of occurrence ofMUAPs is often used for diagnosis of neuromuscular disorders. In addition, recent studies have shown that the analysis of the energy content of MUAPs is a possible way for discriminating among normal, neurogenic, and myopathic MUAPs [38], illustrating, thus, the clinical value of the interpretation of MUAP information.

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...
متن کاملNoise Removal from Surface Respiratory EMG Signal
The aim of this study was to remove the two principal noises which disturb the surface electromyography signal (Diaphragm). These signals are the electrocardiogram ECG artefact and the power line interference artefact. The algorithm proposed focuses on a new Lean Mean Square (LMS) Widrow adaptive structure. These structures require a reference signal that is correlated with the noise contaminat...
متن کاملHigh-pass filtering to remove electrocardiographic interference from torso EMG recordings.
UNLABELLED Removal of electrocardiographic (ECG) contamination of electromyographic (EMG) signals from torso muscles is often attempted by high-pass filtering. This study investigated the effects of the cut-off frequency used in this high-pass filtering technique on the resulting EMG signal. Surface EMGs were recorded on five subjects from the rectus abdominis, external oblique, and erector spi...
متن کاملECG Artifact Removal from Surface EMG Signal Using an Automated Method Based on Wavelet-ICA
This study aims at proposing an efficient method for automated electrocardiography (ECG) artifact removal from surface electromyography (EMG) signals recorded from upper trunk muscles. Wavelet transform is applied to the simulated data set of corrupted surface EMG signals to create multidimensional signal. Afterward, independent component analysis (ICA) is used to separate ECG artifact componen...
متن کاملA Combined Wavelet Packet-blind Source Separation Approach for Identification and Removal of Muscle Artifacts from Electroencephalogram
Electromyogram (EMG) induced electrical activity is an undesirable interference in cerebral electroencephalogram (EEG) data. We propose an efficient algorithm for automatic detection and removal of EMG artifact, while preserving most of the true cerebral activity in the EEG. First, the EEG data are decomposed into independent components (IC) using canonical correlation based blind source separa...
