Abstract
The characteristics or aspects of important fiducial points (FPs) in the electrocardiogram (ECG) signal are complicated because of various factors, such as non-stationary effects and low signal-to-noise ratio. Due to the various noises caused by the ECG signal measurement environment and by typical ECG signal deformation due to heart diseases, detecting such FPs becomes a challenging task. In this study, we introduce a novel PQRST complex detector using a one-dimensional bilateral filter (1DBF) and the temporal characteristics of FPs. The 1DBF with noise suppression and edge preservation preserves the P-or T-wave whereas it suppresses the QRS-interval. The 1DBF acts as a background predictor for predicting the background corresponding to the P-and T-waves and the remaining flat interval excluding the QRS-interval. The R-peak and QRS-interval are founded by the difference of the original ECG signal and the predicted background signal. Then, the Q-and S-points and the FPs related to the P-and T-wave are sequentially detected using the determined searching range and detection order based on the detected R-peak. The detection performance of the proposed method is analyzed through the MIT-BIH database (MIT-DB) and the QT database (QT-DB).
