Although LPs alone can not be used as a predictor of arrhythmic events and sudden cardiac death, there is a 95% probability that there will be no more complications for patients who do not have LPs in their ECG signals. Last 40 msecs of the QRS segment is fed to an artificial neural network (ANN) along with the three time domain parameters, which are used as a standard of predicting LPs. Fourier transform of last 80 msecs of the QRST segment is fed to another ANN along with these three criteria in order to overcome the problem of locating QRS endpoint, and performances of these two networks are compared in the case of misdetection of QRS end points.","PeriodicalId":403026,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 44th IEEE 2001 Midwest Symposium on Circuits and Systems.

The updating of coefficient of the filter is determined based on assuming that the error signal is a t-distribution with a degree of freedom. Small weighting is assigned to the signal portion with large amplitude, while large weighting factor is used for the signal part with small amplitude. By doing so, the effect of large amplitude signal parts to the performance of the adaptive filter is suppressed. To obtain fast convergence, the RLS-like approach is applied to solve the updating step. To reduce the calculation burden, the calculation to determine the updating step is done in four sampling instants. Decomposing the updating algorithm into four steps does it. Our simulation results show that by doing so, we can obtain fast convergence and high throughput algorithm. Thus, the algorithm can be implemented by using a limited number of low-cost processor elements while preserving the throughput.","PeriodicalId":403026,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 44th IEEE 2001 Midwest Symposium on Circuits and Systems.
