Motion artifacts. An example of one amputee of the Biceps Femoris EMG with a motion artifact. On the left the data is high-pass filtered at 10Hz, as in all trials without motion artifacts, but this does not remove the artifacts. On the right the data is high-pass filtered at 50Hz, which did remove the motion artifact. Trials with this type of artifact that was removed by a 50Hz HP filter, but not by a 10Hz Hp filter were removed from the data. Most trials did not show this type of artifact and therefore the trials with artifacts were removed from the analysis and the original filtering was used.
