A new method for detection of T-waves in 12-lead Electrocardiogram (ECG) using Support Vector Machine (SVM) is presented in this paper. Digital filtering techniques are used to remove power line interference and base line wander present in the ECG signal. SVM is used as a classifier for the detection of T-waves. The performance of the algorithm is evaluated using 50, original simultaneously recorded 12-lead ECG records from the standard CSE ECG database. Significant detection rate of 91% is achieved. The performance of the algorithm compares favorably with other algorithms reported in literature.
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.
