Learning outcomes |
At the end of this curricular unit, the student shall be able to understand the theoretical foundations of recording biomedical signals, understand its scope of application and its limitations. He/she will be able to apply analytical methods the biomedical signals collected in laboratory context or made available in online libraries, in particular to electrocardiographic, electromyographic, electroencephalographic and accelerometry signals.
