TLDR
The noise sensitivities of nine different QRS detection algorithms were measured for a normal, single-channel, lead-II, synthesized ECG corrupted with five different types of synthesized noise: electromyographic interference, 60-Hz power line interference, baseline drift due to respiration, abrupt baseline shift, and a composite noise constructed from all of the other noise types.
Abstract
The noise sensitivities of nine different QRS detection algorithms were measured for a normal, single-channel, lead-II, synthesized ECG corrupted with five different types of synthesized noise: electromyographic interference, 60-Hz power line interference, baseline drift due to respiration, abrupt baseline shift, and a composite noise constructed from all of the other noise types. The percentage of QRS complexes detected, the number of false positives, and the detection delay were measured. None of the algorithms were able to detect all QRS complexes without any false positives for all of the noise types at the highest noise level. Algorithms based on amplitude and slope had the highest performance for EMG-corrupted ECG. An algorithm using a digital filter had the best performance for the composite-noise-corrupted data. >

The sensitivity of 38 heart rate variability measures to the addition of artifact in human and artificial 24-hr cardiac recordings.

TL;DR: The relative sensitivity of 38 commonly used HRV measures to artifact was compared to determine which measures show the most change with increasing increments of artifact, and whether short‐term and long‐term HRV Measures share similarities in their sensitivity to artifact.

Estimation of QRS Complex Power Spectra for Design of a QRS Filter

TL;DR: The power spectral analysis shows that the QRS complex could be separated from other interfering signals, and it is observed that a bandpass filter with a center frequency of 17 Hz and a Q of 5 yields the best signal-to-noise ratio.
