[4] [5] [6] However, since GDF provides a superset of features from many different file formats, it could be also used for many other domains. The free and open source software BioSig library provides implementations for reading and writing of GDF in GNU Octave/MATLAB and C/C++. [7]

Depiction of myoelectric control of an ankle exoskeleton. Proportional myoelectric control can be used to (among other purposes) activate robotic lower limb exoskeletons.A proportional myoelectric control system utilizes a microcontroller or computer that inputs electromyography (EMG) signals from sensors on the leg muscle(s) and then activates the corresponding joint actuator(s ...
Rectification is the translation of the raw EMG signal to a signal with a single polarity, usually positive. The purpose of rectifying the signal is to ensure the signal does not average to zero, due to the raw EMG signal having positive and negative components. Two types of rectification are used: full-wave and half-wave rectification. [27]
EMG measures action potentials, called Motor Unit Action Potentials (MUAPs), created during muscle contraction. A few common uses are determining whether a muscle is active or inactive during movement (onset of activity), assessing the velocity of nerve conduction, and the amount of force generated during movement.
In signal processing, sampling is the reduction of a continuous-time signal to a discrete-time signal. A common example is the conversion of a sound wave to a sequence of "samples". A sample is a value of the signal at a point in time and/or space; this definition differs from the term's usage in statistics, which refers to a set of such values ...
An electromyogram (EMG) is an electrical recording of the activity of a muscle or muscle group. An EMG study can be combined with a nerve conduction study to diagnose neuromuscular diseases such as peripheral neuropathy and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
Sample synchronized biosignals from a human subject. A biosignal is any signal in living beings that can be continually measured and monitored.The term biosignal is often used to refer to bioelectrical signals, but it may refer to both electrical and non-electrical signals.
