synsNMF: Non-negative matrix factorisation

In musclesyneRgies: Extract Muscle Synergies from Electromyography

Non-negative matrix factorisation

Description

Non-negative matrix factorisation

Usage

synsNMF(
  V,
  R2_target = 0.01,
  runs = 5,
  max_iter = 1000,
  last_iter = 20,
  MSE_min = 1e-04,
  fixed_syns = NA
)

Arguments

V	EMG data frame to be reconstructed, usually filtered and time-normalised
R2_target	Threshold to stop iterations for a certain factorisation rank
runs	Number of repetitions for each rank to avoid local minima
max_iter	Maximum number of iterations allowed for each rank
last_iter	How many of the last iterations should be checked before stopping?
MSE_min	Threshold on the mean squared error to choose the factorisation rank or minimum number of synergies
fixed_syns	To impose the factorisation rank or number of synergies

Details

The first column of V must always contain time information.

Value

Object of class musclesyneRgies with elements:

• syns factorisation rank or minimum number of synergies
  

• M motor modules (time-invariant coefficients)
  

• P motor primitives (time-dependent coefficients)
  

• V original data
  

• Vr reconstructed data
  

• iterations number of iterations to convergence
  

• R2 quality of reconstruction (coefficient of determination)

• rank_type was the rank fixed or variable?
  

• classification classification type (e.g., none, k-means, NMF, etc.)

Examples

# Note that for bigger data sets one might want to run computation in parallel
# Load some data
data(FILT_EMG)
# Extract synergies (careful, rank is imposed here!)
SYNS <- lapply(FILT_EMG, synsNMF, fixed_syns = 4)
