Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPH11512012
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
A heart monitoring apparatus and method is disclosed wherein an electrocardiograph signal is obtained from a patient and processed to enhance the salient features and to suppress noise. A plurality n of values representative of the features of the electrocardiograph signal are generated and used in a Kohonen neural network to generate an n dimensional vector. This vector is compared with a stored plurality m of n dimensional reference vectors defining an n dimensional Kohonen feature map to determine the proximity of the vector to the reference vectors. If it is determined by the Kohonen neural network that the vector is within or beyond a threshold range of the reference vectors a signal is output which can be used to initiate an event such as the generation of an alarm or the storage of ECG data.
