An automatic analysis method for detecting and eliminating ECG artifacts in EEG
نویسندگان
چکیده
An automated method for detecting and eliminating electrocardiograph (ECG) artifacts from electroencephalography (EEG) without an additional synchronous ECG channel is proposed in this paper. Considering the properties of wavelet filters and the relationship between wavelet basis and characteristics of ECG artifacts, the concepts for selecting a suitable wavelet basis and scales used in the process are developed. The analysis via the selected basis is without suffering time shift for decomposition and detection/elimination procedures after wavelet transformation. The detection rates, above 97.5% for MIT/BIH and NTUH recordings, show a pretty good performance in ECG artifact detection and elimination.

Implementing a Smart Method to Eliminate Artifacts of Vital Signals
Background: Electroencephalography (EEG) has vital and significant applications in different medical fields and is used for the primary evaluation of neurological disorders. Hence, having easy access to suitable and useful signal is very important. Artifacts are undesirable confusions which are generally originated from inevitable human activities such as heartbeat, blinking of eyes and facial ...
متن کاملCancelling ECG Artifacts in EEG Using a Modified Independent Component Analysis Approach
We introduce a new automatic method to eliminate electrocardiogram (ECG) noise in an electroencephalogram (EEG) or electrooculogram (EOG). It is based on a modification of the independent component analysis (ICA) algorithm which gives promising results while using only a single-channel electroencephalogram (or electrooculogram) and the ECG. To check the effectiveness of our approach, we compare...
متن کاملEog and Ecg Minimization Based on Regression Analysis
A method based on regression analysis is presented that can be used for automatic minimization of EOG and ECG artifacts in the sleep EEG. INTRODUCTION It is known that the non-cortical activity gives a contribution to the EEG recordings. Electrooculogram (EOG), the electrocardiagram (ECG) and muscle activity (EMG) are the most important non-cortical sources. For sleep analysis it is important t...
متن کاملReduction of ECG and gradient related artifacts in simultaneously recorded human EEG/MRI data.
Nowadays, electroencephalography signals can be acquired from a patient lying in a magnetic resonance imaging system. It is even possible to acquire EEG signals during an MR imaging sequence. However, such EEG signals are severely distorted by artifacts originating from various effects (e.g., MR gradients, ECG). In this paper, a simple method is presented to reduce such artifacts. Thereby, spec...
متن کاملAutomatic artifacts removal from epileptic EEG using a hybrid algorithm
Electroencephalogram (EEG) examination plays a very important role in the diagnosis of disorders related to epilepsy in clinic. However, epileptic EEG is often contaminated with lots of artifacts such as electrocardiogram (ECG), electromyogram (EMG) and electrooculogram (EOG). These artifacts confuse EEG interpretation, while rejecting EEG segments containing artifacts probably results in a sub...
