Abstract
Methods and apparatus for anonymizing neuromuscular signals used to generate a musculoskeletal representation. The method comprises recording, using a plurality of neuromuscular sensors arranged on one or more wearable devices, a plurality of neuromuscular signals from a user, providing as input to a trained statistical model, the plurality of neuromuscular signals and/or information based on the plurality of neuromuscular signals; and generating, the musculoskeletal representation based, at least in part, on an output of the trained statistical model, wherein the musculoskeletal representation is an anonymized musculoskeletal representation from which at least one personal characteristic of the user has been removed.
