Respiration monitoring based on information fusion from Impedance pneumography and Electrocardiography

Wearable health has become a striking area in our daily life. Electrocardiogram (ECG) is one of the biomedical signals collected by the wearable or portable devices, which is widely used in heart rate monitoring and cardiac diagnosis. However, automatic ECG signal analysis is dicult in real application because the signals are easy to be contaminated by the noise and artifacts. Thus, the quality of ECG signals is essential for the accurate analysis.

The objective of this project is to design a reliable automated ECG signal quality indicator based on the supervised learning algorithm, which intends to estimate the quality of the signals and distinguish them. The methodology of this project is creating a classication model to indicate the quality of ECG signals based on the machine learning algorithm. The model is trained by the extracted features based on the Fourier transform, Wavelet transform, Autocorrelation function and Principal component analysis of ECG signals. Subsequently, the feature selection techniques are proposed to remove the irrelevant and redundant features and then the selected features are fed to classi- cation algorithms. The classier was then trained and tested on the expert-labeled data from the collected ECG signals. Particularly, we focus on the performance of classier and use the best training model to predict the quality of new ECG signals.
