EMG AMPLITUDE ESTIMATION TOOLBOX

A Matlab toolbox for EMG amplitude estimation using single or multiple channels of EMG, with or without signal whitening.

Alpha Version 0.07

DOCUMENTATION: Click here to go to the cover page of the HTML version of the User's Manual. You can then navigate through the remaining manual pages using the links provided.

DOWNLOAD: Click here to download the latest version of the EMG Amplitude Estimation Toolbox. The toolbox is offered free to the research community, subject to the Aladdin Free Public License. Notes on installing the toolbox are included in the User's Manual. (Look for the page titled "Installing and Uninstalling the EMG Amplitude Estimation Toolbox," near the front of the manual.) The User's Manual is provided with the source distribution and can also be accessed from the "DOCUMENTATION" link above.

It would seem best to cite the toolbox in one or two of the following manners:

The primary steps in the amplitude estimation algorithm implemented by the toolbox are described in the following review paper:
Edward A. Clancy, Evelyn L. Morin and Roberto Merletti, "Sampling, Noise-Reduction and Amplitude Estimation Issues in Surface Electromyography," Journal of Electromyography and Kinesiology, Vol. 12, No. 1, pp. 1–16, 2002.
It may also help to cite the toolbox directly via its web address. Here is an example used in one of my own journal papers (you would need to update the toolbox version and access date, at least):
