“…In this research, six wavelet functions ("dmey", "bior5.5", "db4", "sym1", "bior1.3", and "db1") are proposed in the WDFR algorithm as shown in Figure 3. Assume that the shape of three wavelet functions is similar to that of one heartbeat [18] and the shape of six remaining wavelet functions is different from that of the heartbeat. All of the wavelet functions will be applied in the WDFR for removing noise and artifact components in ECG signal in order to choose the best wavelet function.…”

“…Moreover, the wavelet algorithm can use different wavelet functions dependent on types of signals. In [18], Supriya Goel et al applied five types of wavelet functions including daubechies, coiflet, haar, biorthogonal, and symmlet, and each wavelet function also has a lot of its sub-functions for calculating de-noise in ECG signals. In particular, the Daubechies family wavelets used in this paper have ten sub-functions (from db1 to db10) for the de-noise of ECG signal with the high performance.…”

Electrocardiogram signal is the electrical actvity of the heart and doctors can diagnose heart disease based on this electrocardiogram signal. However, the electrocardiogram signals often have noise and artifact components. Therefore, one electrocardiogram signal without the noise and artifact plays an important role in heart disease diagnosis with more accurate results. This paper proposes a wavelet transform with three stages of decomposition, filter, and reconstruction for eliminating the noise and artifact in the electrocardiogram signal. The signal after decomposing produces approximation and detail coefficients, which contains the frequency ranges of the noise and artifact components. Hence, the approximation and detail coefficients with the frequency ranges corresponding to the noise and artifact in the electrocardiogram signal are eliminated by filters before they are reconstructed. For the evaluation of the proposed algorithm, filter evaluation metrics are applied, in which signal-to-noise ratio and mean squared error along with power spectral density are employed. The simulation results show that the proposed wavelet algorithm at level 8 is effective, in which the with the "dmey" wavelet function was selected be the best based power spectrum density.

“…The standard filters are: band pass filter (bandpass, dashed with marked pentagon), low pass filter low-pass (solid with marked hexagon), median (medfilt, dotted with marked point), and notch (notchfil, dashed with marked point). At these stage, we compare performances of the UFIR smoother relying on q opt (21) and (21) and several other available filters. To test estimators, we generate a signal s(n) = sin(n) corrupted by an additive zero mean white Gaussian noise (WGN) having the variance σ 2 = 0.0625 and sketch the results in Fig.…”

Denoising and Features Extraction of ECG Signals in State Space Using Unbiased FIR Smoothing

The electrocardiogram (ECG) signals bear fundamental information for making decisions about different kinds of heart diseases. Therefore, many efforts were made during decades to extract features of heartbeats via ECG records with high accuracy and efficiency using different strategies and methods. In this paper, we solve the problem in discrete-time state-space using a novel q-lag unbiased finite impulse response (UFIR) smoother, which we adapt to the ECG signal shape via the time-varying optimal averaging horizon. It is shown that the adaptive UFIR smoother performs better in applications to ECG signals than the standard techniques such as the Savitsky-Golay, wavelet-based, low-pass, band-pass, notch, and median filters. Applications are given for the PhysioBank data benchmark, which contains several records taken from different databases such as the MIT-BIH Arrhythmia (MITDB). A complete statistical analysis is provided via normalized histograms and statistical classifiers. It is shown in a comparison with other methods that the adaptive UFIR smoother has a higher accuracy in denoising, features extraction, and features classification for ECG records with normal rhythm and atrial fibrillation (AF).INDEX TERMS Biomedical signal processing, electrocardiogram (ECG) signal denoising, ECG features extraction, unbiased finite impulse response (UFIR) filtering.

“…Linear and adaptive filtering techniques have been used for the removal of baseline wander, muscle activity, and motion artifact noise [11,12]. Variations in wavelet transform have proven to overcome other time-frequency methods since they allow the ECG noise factors to be analyzed at multiresolution [13,14]. Statistical methods such as principal component analysis [15,16], independent component analysis [16], and deep neural networks [17] have also been used to extract a noise-free signal from the original ECG recording.…”

Extended Segmented Beat Modulation Method for Cardiac Beat Classification and Electrocardiogram Denoising

et al. 2020

Beat classification and denoising are two challenging and fundamental operations when processing digital electrocardiograms (ECG). This paper proposes the extended segmented beat modulation method (ESBMM) as a tool for automatic beat classification and ECG denoising. ESBMM includes four main steps: (1) beat identification and segmentation into PQRS and TU segments; (2) wavelet-based time-frequency feature extraction; (3) convolutional neural network-based classification to discriminate among normal (N), supraventricular (S), and ventricular (V) beats; and (4) a template-based denoising procedure. ESBMM was tested using the MIT–BIH arrhythmia database available at Physionet. Overall, the classification accuracy was 91.5% while the positive predictive values were 92.8%, 95.6%, and 83.6%, for N, S, and V classes, respectively. The signal-to-noise ratio improvement after filtering was between 0.15 dB and 2.66 dB, with a median value equal to 0.99 dB, which is significantly higher than 0 (p < 0.05). Thus, ESBMM proved to be a reliable tool to classify cardiac beats into N, S, and V classes and to denoise ECG tracings.
