Spasticity assessment based on the Hilbert–Huang transform marginal spectrum entropy and the root mean square of surface electromyography signals: a preliminary study

Abstract Background Most of the objective and quantitative methods proposed for spasticity measurement are not suitable for clinical application, and methods for surface electromyography (sEMG) signal processing are mainly limited to the time-domain. This study aims to quantify muscle activity in th...
