Dear biomch-l members,
I am looking for a method to simulate the effect of the skin
artifact on the marker position.
The references that I have found (e.g., Che`ze et al.,
1995; Lu and O’Connor, 1999; Roux et al., 2002) used A sin
(w*t+Q) formulation to simulate skin movement artifacts,
where A is the amplitude of the noise, w is the frequency, t
is the simulated time, and Q is the phase angle. For a
given trial, the values of A, w and Q for each marker were
taken randomly to lie between zero and a set upper limit.
My question is whether this the standard way, or are there
different methods to simulated this effect?
Thank you very much for your help!
