| Abstract | Baseline wander removal is an unavoidable preprocessing step in ECG signal analysis. Unfortunately, the in-band nature of this kind of noise makes its removal difficult without affecting ECG waveform, in particular the ST segment. This is a portion of the ECG with high clinical relevance, as it is related to the diagnosis of acute coronary syndromes. The ST segment is highly susceptible to distortion when baseline removal is performed affecting the low-frequency region of ECG spectrum, where are concentrated the harmonic components that mainly contribute to the shape of the ST segment. In this paper, we propose to tackle the problem of baseline removal from a different perspective, considering the quadratic variation as an alternative measure of variability not directly related to the frequency domain. In this regard, we recently proposed a novel baseline removal algorithm based on quadratic variation reduction. In this paper, we assess its performance with respect to the distortion of the ST segment comparing it to state-of-the-art algorithms. Simulation results confirm the effectiveness of the approach based on quadratic variation reduction. Our algorithm outperforms state-of-the-art algorithms tailored to minimize distortion of the ST segment. Moreover, it compares favorably also in terms of computational complexity, which is linear in the size of the vector to detrend. This makes it suitable also for real-time applications. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
