Description
Developments and Applications for ECG Signal Processing: Modeling, Segmentation, and Pattern Recognition covers reliable techniques for ECG signal processing and their potential to significantly increase the applicability of ECG use in diagnosis. This book details a wide range of challenges in the processes of acquisition, preprocessing, segmentation, mathematical modelling and pattern recognition in ECG signals, presenting practical and robust solutions based on digital signal processing techniques. Users will find this to be a comprehensive resource that contributes to research on the automatic analysis of ECG signals and extends resources relating to rapid and accurate diagnoses, particularly for long-term signals.
Chapters cover classical and modern features surrounding f ECG signals, ECG signal acquisition systems, techniques for noise suppression for ECG signal processing, a delineation of the QRS complex, mathematical modelling of T- and P-waves, and the automatic classification of heartbeats.
Key Features
- Gives comprehensive coverage of ECG signal processing
- Presents development and parametrization techniques for ECG signal acquisition systems
- Analyzes and compares distortions caused by different digital filtering techniques for noise suppression applied over the ECG signal
- Describes how to identify if a digitized ECG signal presents irreversible distortion through analysis of its frequency components prior to, and after, filtering
- Considers how to enhance QRS complexes and differentiate these from artefacts, noise, and other characteristic waves under different scenarios
Readership
Researchers and postgraduate resarchers in electrical engineering and computing; researchers workong on digital processing and biological signals, artificial intelligence and pattern recognition; industry-based researchers developing microprocessable medical equipment (including electrical engineers, developers working on operating systems and diagnostic-aid software); cardiologists interested in pre-processing techniques for ECG signal feature extraction
