Improved resolution of pulse superpositions in a knowledge-based system EMG decomposition

We have improved the accuracy (sensitivity x specificity) of a knowledge-based system from 90% to well above 95% in decomposing complex EMG 3-channel data into its constituent motor unit action potential (MUAP) trains. The key to achieving this improvement is our use of a probabilistic framework for resolving pulse superpositions through the application of utility maximization at the suprasegmental level.
