Ankle Torque Estimation With Motor Unit Discharges in Residual Muscles Following Lower-Limb Amputation

IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON NEURAL SYSTEMS AND REHABILITATION ENGINEERING, 31, 4821–4830.

By: N. Rubin*, R. Hinson*, K. Saul n, X. Hu* & H. Huang* 

author keywords: Amputation; EMG; motor unit; neural-machine interface; prosthesis control
TL;DR: Results suggest MUDrive significantly outperforms EMG and ND methods in muscles of NON, as well as both intact and residual muscles of AMP, and integrating MU discharges with modeled biomechanical outputs may provide a more accurate torque control signal than direct EMG control of assistive, lower-limb devices.

Finger Force Estimation Using Motor Unit Discharges Across Forearm Postures

IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING, 69(9), 2767–2775.

By: N. Rubin n, Y. Zheng *, H. Huang n  & X. Hu n

Contributors: N. Rubin n, Y. Zheng *, H. Huang n  & X. Hu n

author keywords: Electromyography; Force; Fingers; Firing; Muscles; Electrodes; Decoding; Biosignal processing; Finger force estimation; Forearm posture; Motor unit decomposition; Neural decoding
MeSH headings : Electromyography / methods; Fingers; Forearm; Humans; Isometric Contraction; Muscle, Skeletal; Posture; Upper Extremity
TL;DR: The results suggest that MU firings can be extracted reliably with little influence from forearm posture, highlighting its potential as an alternative decoding scheme for robust and continuous control of assistive devices. (via Semantic Scholar)

2021 article

Common Neural Input within and across Lower Limb Muscles: A Preliminary Study

2021 43RD ANNUAL INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE OF THE IEEE ENGINEERING IN MEDICINE & BIOLOGY SOCIETY (EMBC), pp. 6683–6686.

By: N. Rubin n, W. Liu, X. Hu n & H. Huang n 

Contributors: N. Rubin n, W. Liu, X. Hu n & H. Huang n 

MeSH headings : Electromyography; Lower Extremity; Muscle, Skeletal
TL;DR: This preliminary study characterized levels of common inputs to MUs in three muscle groups: MUs within a muscle, between bilateral homologous pairs, and between agonist/antagonist muscle pairs. (via Semantic Scholar)
