I am recruiting volunteers to serve as experts in a study regarding the
interpretation of muscle activation states from surface EMG. Experts
will be required to evaluate a series of electromyograms and mark the
onset and cessation of muscle activity under various filter conditions.
These evaluations will then be used to evaluate the results obtained from
an algorithm for automated detection of changes in activation state. The
EMG recordings represent a variety of movement and activation conditions.
Evaluations will be performed using an interactive computer program that
has been designed to automatically present the EMG and collect and store
the data as the expert marks onsets and cessations by moving a marker
along the EMG on a computer monitor. Total time involved should be
less than 1 hour. An IBM compatible microcomputer with a 3.5" HD floppy
disk drive is required. Minimum processor would be a 25MHz 80386.
If you are interested, please respond with your address via US Postal
Service and a brief description of your experience interpreting EMGs. A
variety of experience levels will be required. All those participating
will receive a copy of the results when complete, including a descrition
of the algorithm used.
Thanks,
Leon.
