Recent work demonstrated that it is possible to identify motor unit discharge times from high-
density surface EMG (HDEMG) decomposition. Since then, the number of studies that use …

Amputation of the upper limb brings heavy burden to amputees, reduces their quality of life,
and limits their performance in activities of daily life. The realization of natural control for …

Modern computation based on von Neumann architecture is now a mature cutting-edge
science. In the von Neumann architecture, processing and memory units are implemented …

Key points Previous studies have indicated that several weeks of strength training is
sufficient to elicit significant adaptations in the neural drive sent to the muscles. There are …

Key points We propose and validate a method for accurately identifying the activity of
populations of motor neurons during contractions at maximal rate of force development in …

Objective. The study of motor unit behavior has been classically performed by selective
recording systems of muscle electrical activity (EMG signals) and decomposition algorithms …

Despite not recording directly from neural cells, the surface electromyogram (EMG) signal
contains information on the neural drive to muscles, ie, the spike trains of motor neurons …

The journey of a prosthetic user is characterized by the opportunities and the limitations of a
device that should enable activities of daily living (ADL). In particular, experiencing a bionic …

Invasive electromyography opened a new window to explore motoneuron behavior in vivo.
However, the technique is limited by the small fraction of active motoneurons that can be …

Designing efficient and labor-saving prosthetic hands requires powerful hand gesture
recognition algorithms that can achieve high accuracy with limited complexity and latency. In …
