ECG R wave detectors in C++

This library is inspired by py-ecg-detectors.

This library is not created with affiliation to authors of Python library Luis Howell and Bernd Porr.

Citation DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.3353396 and license: GPL-3.0 License to their work. Great gratitude for their work. License: GPL v3

Changes:

  • implementation of 2 algorithms, which are modified to work in real time
  • implementation of the Butterworth filters are handled by IIR1 -- Realtime C++ filter library
  • results of the algorithms may vary, due to the rounding errors and implementation of the filters
  • HRV variability and testing is not available

Citations can be found above every class of the detector

Available real-time detectors:

  • Engelse and Zeelenberg detector
  • Pan and Tompkins detector

Real-time detector usage:

#include "realtime/Detectors.h"
    
double fs = 512.0; // sampling frequency
DetectorEngZeeRealTime detector = DetectorEngZeeRealTime(fs); // create specific detector with inputs
double samples[] = {0}; // ECG signal - just for demonstration
// to simulate real-time procedure, we will use for
for (double sample: samples) {
    int qrs = detector.processSample(sample);
    if(qrs != -1){
        // -1 - nothing
        // otherwise - it is index of the QRS complex in signal
        // does not need to be in order for some detectors (sorting required in some cases)
    }
} 
detector.reset(); // if something went wrong - this will empty memory in detector
// for new configuration create new detector object
