Quality-Controlled Compression Method using Wavelet Transform for Electrocardiogram Signals

TL;DR: The quantization strategy of extracted non-zero wavelet coefficients (NZWC), according to the combination of RLE, HUFFMAN and arithmetic encoding of the NZWC and a resulting lookup table, allow the accomplishment of high compression ratios with good quality reconstructed signals.

A Technique for High-Performance Data Compression

Welch
- 01 Jun 1984 - 
TL;DR: A new compression algorithm is introduced that is based on principles not found in existing commercial methods in that it dynamically adapts to the redundancy characteristics of the data being compressed, and serves to illustrate system problems inherent in using any compression scheme.

ECG data compression techniques-a unified approach

TL;DR: The theoretical bases behind the direct ECG data compression schemes are presented and classified into three categories: tolerance-comparison compression, DPCM, and entropy coding methods and a framework for evaluation and comparison of ECG compression schemes is presented.

Wavelet and wavelet packet compression of electrocardiograms

TL;DR: Pilot data from a blind evaluation of compressed ECG's by cardiologists suggest that the clinically useful information present in original ECG signals is preserved by 8:1 compression, and in most cases 16:1 compressed ECGs are clinically useful.
