The EKG Sequence

The EKG or electrocardiogram sequence is defined by a(1) = 1, a(2) = 2 and, for n ≥ 3, a(n) is the smallest natural number not already in the sequence with the property that gcd{a(n − 1), a(n)} > 1. In spite of its erratic local behavior, which when plotted resembles an electrocardiogram, its global behavior appears quite regular. We conjecture that almost all a(n) satisfy the asymptotic formul...

System for EKG Monitoring

In this paper the system for the electrocardiogram (EKG) monitoring based on the of Arduino microcontroller is presented. Detailed description of the electrocardiogram itself serves as a ground for building the proposed hardware and software solution. The software implementation is in a form of both, Mat-lab environment, and own application. Final output enables retrieval of the actual data in ...

This article explores the hegemonic status enjoyed by the crime novel in the contemporary era, agenre which, in contrast to the literary mainstream, continues to flourish. It suggests that thedevelopment of a body of research on crime fiction has resulted in the widespread acceptance ofa finite number of unassailable generic qualities. One of these, the heuristic function of the cri...

Chaos Analysis for Ekg Time Series Data

Our project aims at testing various measures of chaos in time series data from an electrocardiogram (EKG). We examine data from three types of patients who we assume to produce varying EKG dynamics. We use time-delay embedding and calculate correlation dimensions to determine if the data is chaotic or random. Our results indicate that there is some evidence of deterministic chaotic behavior in ...
