TLDR
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.Abstract:
Wavelets and wavelet packets have recently emerged as powerful tools for signal compression. Wavelet and wavelet packet-based compression algorithms based on embedded zerotree wavelet (EZW) coding are developed for electrocardiogram (ECG) signals, and eight different wavelets are evaluated for their ability to compress Holter ECG data. 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 ECG's are clinically useful.read more

Efficient electrocardiogram (ECG) lossy compression scheme
TL;DR: A new electrocardiogram (ECG) lossy compression scheme has been developed that can reach high compression ratios with a reduced error which makes it suitable for real-time electrocardsiogram monitoring and very suitable for hardware designs.

Compressão de Sinais de EMG isométricos utilizando JPEG2000
TL;DR: Although the JPEG2000 codec is designed to compress images, it is illustrated that it can be used to compress EMG signals, and an algorithm for EMG signal compression using a successful method applied to still image coding is studied.

A theory for multiresolution signal decomposition: the wavelet representation
TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that the difference of information between the approximation of a signal at the resolutions 2/sup j+1/ and 2 /sup j/ (where j is an integer) can be extracted by decomposing this signal on a wavelet orthonormal basis of L/sup 2/(R/sup n/), the vector space of measurable, square-integrable n-dimensional functions.

Ten Lectures on Wavelets
TL;DR: In this article, the regularity of compactly supported wavelets and symmetry of wavelet bases are discussed. But the authors focus on the orthonormal bases of wavelets, rather than the continuous wavelet transform.

Orthonormal bases of compactly supported wavelets
TL;DR: This work construct orthonormal bases of compactly supported wavelets, with arbitrarily high regularity, by reviewing the concept of multiresolution analysis as well as several algorithms in vision decomposition and reconstruction.

TL;DR: The image coding results, calculated from actual file sizes and images reconstructed by the decoding algorithm, are either comparable to or surpass previous results obtained through much more sophisticated and computationally complex methods.
