Map Filtering in the Diversity-Enhanced Wavelet Domain Applied to Ecg Signals Denoising

TLDR
The method is based on a maximum a-posteriori filtering in the diversity-enhanced wavelet domain, under realistic a-priori assumptions regarding the statistical properties of the wavelet coefficients of the ECG signal.
Abstract
An effective denoising method for ECG signals affected by real sources of noise is proposed in this paper. The method is based on a maximum a-posteriori (MAP) filtering in the diversity-enhanced wavelet domain, under realistic a-priori assumptions regarding the statistical properties of the wavelet coefficients of the ECG signal. In order to evaluate the performance of the method, we studied the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) improvement factor and the degree of the denoising influence on the automatic signal segmentation procedures. The method was tested in both synthetic and real noise conditions and it showed very promising results.

Adapting to Unknown Smoothness via Wavelet Shrinkage

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a smoothness adaptive thresholding procedure, called SureShrink, which is adaptive to the Stein unbiased estimate of risk (sure) for threshold estimates and is near minimax simultaneously over a whole interval of the Besov scale; the size of this interval depends on the choice of mother wavelet.
