Abstract :
Several techniques have been developed to compress ambulatory electrocardiogram (ECG) data. This paper evaluates and compares four commonly used ECG data compression techniques. These techniques are evaluated based not only on their percent root-mean-square error but also on the significant clinical information/features that are retained/lost in the decompressed ECG signals
