  • Abstract
    This work is directed toward reducing the number of parameters necessary to describe the electrical activity of the heart. The approach taken is one of template matching using a linear combination of a set of template waveforms to fit a set of pattern waveforms. Using selected electrocardiogram (EKG) waveforms as a template results in a great reduction in the number of parameters needed to match other EKGs.
