Hello,
I am using 4th Grand Challenge data for my research.
I have some question of using the EMG Data to validate the calculated Muscle Forces of an inverse dynamics model. Which processing I have to perform to use the data to calculate an activation signal out of the EMG raw data? Do you know recommended matlab functions for this?
Thank you

Re: EMG Data processing for force validation
I'm unfamiliar with the data set you mentioned, but Arnold et al. describe their method for processing EMG in the following paper:

Journal of Experimental Biology 216:2150–2160. http://nmbl.stanford.edu/publications/p ... ld2013.pdf (page 2152, "Experimental data" section, paragraph 2).
