Abstract:
There is no doubt that the heart is one of the most important organs of a human body. Heart disease is the leading cause of death. Each year, a third of the total death in the world is caused by heart disease. In fact, this number may be significantly reduced by proper treatment given that the heart disease can be diagnosed in the early stage. Electrocardiograph (ECG) has been widely used as a non-invasive tool for clinical diagnosis of heart disease since it was developed a hundred years ago. It is also employed to measure the heart rate in wearable devices in recent years. This talk will give an overview on the origination of the ECG signal, the state-of-the-art technologies and algorithms for ECG acquisition and analysis, as well as its applications in both clinical diagnosis and ambulatory health monitoring.
