dimensionality of values

Main Forum

Hi,

i would like to output a scalar value for the maximum muscle activity of a certain group of muscles. I know that there is a AnySearchFun:

AnyFolder MuscleMeasure = {AnySearchFun MuscleList = {
[INDENT] Search = “…Trunk...*.Activity”;
[/INDENT] };
AnyVar SSM = max(MuscleList());
};

My problem now is, that MuscleMeasure.SSM is a scalar (1 x 1), even when nStep is larger than 1. All the other values i output are vectors with a length of nStep (1 x nStep). How can i manage to get the max value for each step?

Alternatively i would be satisfied with the absolute maximum (1x1) but AB does not even show the scalar value in the tree (and does not provide a warning that the dimensionalities are different). Any clue for that?

Thanks,

Thomas

Hi Thomaz,

Something similar (without search function though) was done in the example GaitVaughan in the repository. A MaxMuscleActivity was created in the EMGComparison.any to compare muscle activity of a muscle group with EMG data. In this example it required to create a poststudy. The study is very quick, you wont even notice it timewise.

PLease have a look there and see if it helps you!
