Myoelectric pattern recognition has been traditionally used for the control of robotic prosthetic hands by amputee patients [Scheme, 2011, JRRD]. This technique could also be leveraged as a control paradigm for assistive devices such as neuroprostheses or exoskeletons in people with incomplete paralysis. Recently, pilot demonstrations of gesture recognition based on residual forearm EMG activity have been performed in patients with stroke [Meyers, 2024, JNER] and spinal cord injury (SCI) [Lu, 2019, JNE; Ting, 2021, J Neurophysiol.] using either standard bipolar EMG electrodes or a high-density
