This paper represents a syntactic peak detection algorithm which detects peaks in the ECG signal. In the algorithm, the input waveform is linearly approximated by "split-and-merge" method, and then each line segment is symbolized with primitive set. The peeks in the symbolized input waveform are recognized by the finite-state automata, which the deterministic finite-state language is parsed by. This proposed algorithm correctly detects peaks in a normal ECG signal as well as in the abnormal ECG signal such as tachycardia and the contaminated signal with noise.

This study sought to develop clothing for a companion animal that can provide stable ECG measurements. A pattern for the smart clothing of a companion dog was manufactured using the replica method to select a location and method that best suited the stable measurement of ECG and improved the clothing's fitness. The smart clothing was developed as the following three types: strap type, top type, and combined top and vest type with a detachable wireless ECG monitor. The detection abilities of these were observed using the PQRST rate taken after ECG measurements while the three companion dogs were tested while resting and moving. The results revealed that apart from using an electrode, applying a gel pad is the most effective way to achieve stable ECG measurements, and the central chest region is more reliable than the left armpit for providing steady readings. The combined top and vest type showed the highest average ECG PQRST detection number, meaning that the ECG signal measurement was steady. These results may contribute to the measurement of ECG in smartwear for U-Healthcare to measure other biometric data of a companion dog.

A non-intrusive ECG and BCG measurement system is introduced. The system is built on a auxiliary backrest of a chair. The developed system is aimed to non-intrusive assessment of cardiovascular dynamic indices such as pulse arrival time(PAT) and pre-ejection period (PEP). In the system, capacitive active electrodes and capacitive grounding were used for the non-intrusive indirect-contact ECG measurement, and EMFi pressure sensor was used for the non-intrusive BCG measurement. The capacitive active electrodes and the EMFi sensor were attached on the backrest. Using the system, ECG and BCG were successfully acquired. The measured BCG showed peaks that following ECG R peaks. It was shown that the time interval between Q wave in ECG and first peak in BCG correlates Pre-ejection period measured by impedance-cardiogram. The results showed that the introduced system can be used for the non-intrusive various cardiovascular information including ECG, PAT, PEP.

This paper has design of ECG pattern classification system using decision of fuzzy IF-THEN rules and neural network. each fuzzy IF-THEN rule in our classification system has antecedent lingustic values and a single consequent class. we use a fuzzy reasoning method based on a single winner rule in the classification phase. this paper in, the MIT/BIH arrhythmia database for the source of input signal is used in order to evaluate the performance of the proposed system. From the simulation results, we can effectively pattern classification by application of learned from neural networks.

This paper presents automated prediction of transient ischemic episodes using neural networks(NN) based pattern matching method. The learning algorithm used to train the multilayer networks is a modified backpropagation algorithm. The algorithm updates parameters of nonlinear function in a neuron as well as connecting weights between neurons to improve learning speed. The performance of the method was evaluated using ECG signals of the MIT/BIH long-term database. Experimental results for 15 records(237 ischemic episodes) show that the average sensitivity and specificity of ischemic episode prediction are 85.71% and 71.11%, respectively. It is also found that the proposed method predicts an average of 45.53［sec］ ahead real ischemia. These results indicate that the NN approach as the pattern matching classifier can be a useful tool for the prediction of transient ischemic episodes.

최근 한국인의 주요 사망원인 중 하나로 부정맥이 부각되고 있다. 심방조기수축(PAC:Premature Atrial Contraction)은 심방이 동방결절의 명령이 있기 전에 수축해 버리는 것이다. 심방조기수축은 일시적으로 유발하였다 사라지곤 할 수 있기 때문에 심한 증상이 없다면 생명에 위협을 가하진 않지만 반대의 경우에는 위험할 수 있다. 따라서 비정상적인 심장 박동이 발생하면 이를 검출하여 조기에 부정맥을 진단할 수 있는 방법이 필요하다. 이를 위해 대상의 ECG 신호로부터 QRS패턴에 해당하는 특징들을 추출하였고 특징들을 이용하여 심방조기수축 파형을 분류한다. 오류 역전파 기반으로 특징들을 훈련하며 가중치와 바이어스값을 구한뒤 이를 이용하여 정상파형과 심방조기수축 파형을 분류한다.

Premature ventricular contraction(PVC) is the most common disease among arrhythmia and it may cause serious situations such as ventricular fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia. Nevertheless personalized difference of ECG signal exist, performance degradation occurs because of carrying out diagnosis by general classification rule. In other words, the design of algorithm that exactly detects abnormal signal and classifies PVC by analyzing the persons's physical condition and/or environment and variable QRS pattern is needed. Thus, PVC classification by personalized abnormal signal detection and QRS pattern variability is presented in this paper. For this purpose, we detected R wave through the preprocessing method and subtractive operation method and selected abnormal signal sets. Also, we classified PVC in realtime through QS interval and R wave amplitude. The performance of abnormal beat detection and PVC classification is evaluated by using MIT-BIH arrhythmia database. The achieved scores indicate the average of 98.33% in abnormal beat classification error and 94.46% in PVC classification.

Among cardiac diseases, arrhythmias can lead to serious complications such as stroke, heart attack, and heart failure if left untreated, so continuous and accurate ECG monitoring is crucial for clinical care. However, the accurate interpretation of electrocardiogram (ECG) data is entirely dependent on medical doctors, which requires additional time and cost. Therefore, this paper proposes an arrhythmia recognition module for the purpose of developing a medical platform through the analysis of abnormal pulse waveforms based on Lifelogs. The proposed method is to convert ECG data into image format instead of time series data, apply visual pattern recognition technology, and then detect arrhythmia using CNN model. In order to validate the arrhythmia classification of the CNN model by image type conversion of ECG data proposed in this paper, the MIT-BIH arrhythmia dataset was used, and the result showed an accuracy of 97%.
