  • Abstract
    Artificial neural networks (ANN) have been applied for some years in the field of signal classification with the aim of outperforming the traditional classifiers. The authors address the results of a study that comprehended the design and training of ANNs for ECG classification in four classes. Distinct ANNs having as inputs distinct ECG features types were designed and trained with the aim of attaining a reduced and "best" discriminating features set.<>
