Feature Extraction of ECG Signal Using HHT Algorithm
This addresses ECG signal analysis for medical diagnosis, but it appears incremental as it combines HHT with existing methods like Wavelet Transform.
The paper tackled feature extraction from ECG signals for abnormality detection by implementing the Hilbert-Huang Transform (HHT) algorithm, verifying its effectiveness through simulation.
This paper describe the features extraction algorithm for electrocardiogram (ECG) signal using Huang Hilbert Transform and Wavelet Transform. ECG signal for an individual human being is different due to unique heart structure. The purpose of feature extraction of ECG signal would allow successful abnormality detection and efficient prognosis due to heart disorder. Some major important features will be extracted from ECG signals such as amplitude, duration, pre-gradient, post-gradient and so on. Therefore, we need a strong mathematical model to extract such useful parameter. Here an adaptive mathematical analysis model is Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT). This new approach, the Hilbert-Huang transform, is implemented to analyze the non-linear and nonstationary data. It is unique and different from the existing methods of data analysis and does not require an a priori functional basis. The effectiveness of the proposed scheme is verified through the simulation.
