Investigating reduction of dimensionality during single-joint elbow movements: a case study on muscle synergies

A long standing hypothesis in the neuroscience community is that the CNS generates the muscle activities to accomplish movements by combining a relatively small number of stereotyped patterns of muscle activations, often referred to as muscle synergies. Different definitions of synergies have been g...
