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.
Abstract
Electrocardiogram (ECG) compression techniques are compared, and a unified view of these techniques is established. ECG data compression schemes are presented in two major groups: direct data compression and transformation methods. The direct data compression techniques are ECG differential pulse code modulation (DPCM) and entropy coding, AZTEC, Turning-point, CORTES, Fan and SAPA algorithms, peak-picking, and cycle-to-cycle compression methods. The transformation methods include Fourier, Walsh, and Karhunen-Loeve transforms. 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. A framework for evaluation and comparison of ECG compression schemes is presented. >

Investigation on the Compression of Electrocardiogram Signals Using Dual Tree Complex Wavelet Transform

TL;DR: Compression using dual tree complex wavelet transform (DT-CWT) has been proposed, that results in many wavelet coefficients getting close to zero and Set Partitioning in Hierarchical Tree (SPIHT) coding is used along with DT-C WT to compress data.

A novel approach in testing the accuracy of ECG compression using partial percentage RMS difference and dynamic time warping

TL;DR: A novel accuracy test procedure is presented which demonstrates how partial PRD calculations and more importantly dynamic time warping can be used to compare an annotated ECG signal and its reconstructed approximation identifying distortion of clinically significant information.

Arithmetic coding for data compression

TL;DR: The state of the art in data compression is arithmetic coding, not the better-known Huffman method, which gives greater compression, is faster for adaptive models, and clearly separates the model from the channel encoding.

Orthogonal transforms for digital signal processing

TL;DR: The utility and effectiveness of these transforms are evaluated in terms of some standard performance criteria such as computational complexity, variance distribution, mean-square error, correlated rms error, rate distortion, data compression, classification error, and digital hardware realization.
