In this article the characteristics of traditional and novel algorithms for the detection of the onset (and offset) of muscle contraction using EMG signals have been briefly summarized. As is evident from these descriptions, many studies have been carried out in the last few years in order to improve the accuracy of the detection and to make the performance of the algorithm less dependent on the skill of the operator
