Physiological modules for generating discrete and rhythmic movements: Component analysis of EMG signals.

Physiological modules for generating discrete and rhythmic movements: Component analysis of EMG signals.

A central question in Neuroscience is that of how the nervous system generates the spatiotemporal commands needed to realize complex gestures, such as handwriting. A key postulate is that the CNS builds up complex movements from a set of simpler motor primitives or control modules. In this study we...
