Lossless and Near-lossless Compression of Ecg Signals
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper we present Linear Transformation Algorithm (LTA), which is based on a new transformation, Linear Block Transformation (LOT). Experimental results show that Linear Transformation Algorithm yields comparable results to Burrows-Wheeler Algorithm (BWA) [4] and outperforms Gzip, and Shorten Waveform Coder for nearlossless ECG compression; for lossless ECG compression it yields better compression than all the other techniques.

Lossless and Near-Lossless Compression of Ecg Signals with Block-Sorting Techniques
In this work, we investigate the lossless and near-lossless compression of electrocardiogram (ECG) signals with different block-sorting transformations. We show that transformations with smaller context depths are a better choice for ECG signal compression when speed and memory utilization are considered. Further, we show that compression results of our proposed technique is better than other w...
متن کاملLossless Compression of Ecg Signals
In this paper we study the compression techniques for electrocardiogram (ECG) signals based on Block Sorting Techniques. We introduce a new and faster block transformation than the Burrows and Wheeler Transformation (BWT), and later compare them for ECG data compression. We show that our algorithm yields better compression gain than the Burrows and Wheeler’s algorithm (BWA), Gzip and the Shorte...
متن کاملLossless Microarray Image Compression by Hardware Array Compactor
Microarray technology is a new and powerful tool for concurrent monitoring of large number of genes expressions. Each microarray experiment produces hundreds of images. Each digital image requires a large storage space. Hence, real-time processing of these images and transmission of them necessitates efficient and custom-made lossless compression schemes. In this paper, we offer a new archi...
متن کاملLossless Compression Schemes for ECG Signals Using Neural Network Predictors
This paper presents lossless compression schemes for ECG signals based on neural network predictors and entropy encoders. Decorrelation is achieved by nonlinear prediction in the first stage and encoding of the residues is done by using lossless entropy encoders in the second stage. Different types of lossless encoders, such as Huffman, arithmetic, and runlength encoders, are used. The performa...
متن کاملAn Efficent Lossless Compression Scheme for ECG Signal
Cardiac diseases constitute the main cause of mortality around the globe. For detection and identification of cardiac problems, it is very important to monitor the patient's heart activities for long periods during his normal daily life. The recorded signal that contains information about the condition of the heart called electrocardiogram (ECG). As a result, long recording of ECG signal amount...
