Compressed Sensing (CS) attempts to acquire and reconstruct a sparse signal from a sampling much below the Nyquist rate. In this paper, we proposed novel CS algorithms for reconstructing under-sampled and compressed electrocardiogram (ECG) signal. In the proposed CS-ECG scheme, the ECG signal was first sub-sampled randomly and mapped onto a two-dimensional (2D) space by using Cut and Align (CAB), for the purpose of promoting sparsity. A nonlinear optimization model was then used to reconstruct the 2D signal. In the compression scheme, the ECG signal was mapped into the frequency domain, and the compression was achieved by a series of multiplying and accumulating between the original ECG and a Gaussian random matrix. For the reconstruction, two matching pursuits (MP) methods and two blocks sparse Bayesian learning (BSBL) methods were implemented and evaluated by the percentage rootmean-square difference (PRD). Based on the test with real ECG data, it was found that the proposed CS scheme was capable of faithfully reconstructing ECG signals with only 30% acquisition.INDEX TERMS Compressed sensing (CS), compression, electrocardiogram (ECG), reconstruction, subsampling.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
