Abstract :
The proposed signal processing technique uses Fast Independent Component Analysis (ICA) algorithm to improve the quality of the original biosensors recordings, which can be used as valuable pre-processing technique such as cross talk removal, artefact reduction etc. Initially, the ill conditioned original surface Electromyography (sEMG) recordings were separated using ICA methods and later they were reconstructed using modified un-mixing matrix. The simulation results showed huge improvement of the original recorded signal after reconstruction. The proposed method has potential applications in various biomedical signal processing techniques.
