BACKGROUND: The swift and accurate identification of motor unit spike trains (MUSTs) from surface electromyography (sEMG) is essential for enabling real-time control in neural interfaces. However, the existing sEMG decomposition methods, including bl...
Reduced fetal movement (RFM) can indicate that a fetus is at risk, but current monitoring methods provide only a "snapshot in time" of fetal health and require trained clinicians in clinical settings. To improve antenatal care, there is a need for co...
