VAF to determine the number of synergies. Top: The global VAF as a function of the number of synergies used for reconstruction was based on the original (black solid line) and shuffled (gray dashed line) EMG datasets. In all cases, the VAF values for the reconstruction of the original data using the identified number of synergies (indicated by red circle) were higher than the VAF values for the shuffled datasets. Bottom: The VAF across 11 muscles, bilaterally. Different lines indicate the different numbers of muscle synergies. VAF, variability accounted for. Syn, synergy.
