The impact of the MIT-BIH Arrhythmia Database

TLDR
The history of the database, its contents, what is learned about database design and construction, and some of the later projects that have been stimulated by both the successes and the limitations of the MIT-BIH Arrhythmia Database are reviewed.
Abstract
The MIT-BIH Arrhythmia Database was the first generally available set of standard test material for evaluation of arrhythmia detectors, and it has been used for that purpose as well as for basic research into cardiac dynamics at about 500 sites worldwide since 1980. It has lived a far longer life than any of its creators ever expected. Together with the American Heart Association Database, it played an interesting role in stimulating manufacturers of arrhythmia analyzers to compete on the basis of objectively measurable performance, and much of the current appreciation of the value of common databases, both for basic research and for medical device development and evaluation, can be attributed to this experience. In this article, we briefly review the history of the database, describe its contents, discuss what we have learned about database design and construction, and take a look at some of the later projects that have been stimulated by both the successes and the limitations of the MIT-BIH Arrhythmia Database.

An improved EMD based ECG denoising method using adaptive switching mean filter

TL;DR: Empirical mode decomposition (EMD) along with adaptive switching mean filtering (ASMF) based ECG denoising technique has been proposed and a close study of the simulation and performance parameters indicate that the described technique outperforms the existing methods for denoised ECG signals.

Probabilistic principal component analysis-based dimensionality reduction and optimization for arrhythmia classification using ECG signals

TL;DR: A system for the classification of arrhythmia is developed by employing the probabilistic principal component analysis (PPCA) model and the experimental results show that the proposed system is useful for the classifier called adaptive genetic-bat (AGB) support vector neural network (which is trained using the AGB algorithm), with a reasonably high accuracy.

Anomaly Detection in Time Series using Generative Adversarial Networks

TL;DR: This work finds that solely using the generator already allows a surprisingly good anomaly detection performance, and discusses adding the discriminator, which might significantly improve the performance.

New method for heart studies.

Norman J. Holter
- 20 Oct 1961 - 
TL;DR: Electrocardiography is proposed to be implemented by the use of long-period, continuous recording of heart potentials with a portable, self-contained instrument together with semiautomatic methods for the rapid analysis of the resulting voluminous data.
