Abstract :
We have developed a new method using the expansion matching technique to separate compound electromyographic (EMG) potentials based on template matching. This technique has been integrated as part of a software package for EMG signal decomposition. It has been tested using actual EMG recordings, which were composed of more than 10 different single motor unit potentials
