چکیده
In this paper we present a novel approach for wavelet compression of electrocardiogram (ECG) signals based on the set partitioning in hierarchical trees (SPIHT) coding algorithm. SPIHT algorithm has achieved prominent success in image compression. Here we use a modified version of SPIHT for one dimensional signals. We applied wavelet transform with SPIHT coding algorithm on different records of MIT-BIH database. The results show the high efficiency of this method in ECG compression. Keywords— ECG compression, wavelet, SPIHT.

A wavelet ECG data codec based on the Set Partitioning In Hierarchical Trees (SPIHT) compression algorithm is proposed in this paper. The SPIHT algorithm [1] has achieved notable success in still image coding. We modified the algorithm for the one-dimensional (1-D) case and applied it to compression of ECG data. Experiments on selected records from the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database revealed that ...

In this work, a novel ECG data compression method is presented which employs set partitioning in hierarchical trees algorithm(SPIHT) on two dimensional electrocardiogram(2D-ECG).The 2D ECG is a two dimensioned array, in which each row of this array indicates one or more period and amplitude[7] normalized ECG beats. When SPIHT algorithm is used to compress one or two-dimensional signals separate...
متن کاملEfficient Method for ECG Compression Using Two Dimensional Multiwavelet Transform
In this paper we introduce an effective ECG compression algorithm based on two dimensional multiwavelet transform. Multi-wavelets offer simultaneous orthogonality, symmetry and short support, which is not possible with scalar two-channel wavelet systems. These features are known to be important in signal processing. Thus multiwavelet offers the possibility of superior performance for image proc...
