Dr Raghavendra Bobbi S from National Institute of Technology Karnataka Granted US Patent

DR Raghavendra Bobbi S, Assistant Professor, Department of Electronics & Communication Engineering was granted a US Patent for his work titled "Method and Apparatus for Classifying Cardiac Arrhythmia".

Abstract of Method and Apparatus for Classifying Cardiac Arrhythmia

A method and a device for classifying cardiac arrhythmia, using an electrocardiogram (ECG) signal, are provided. The method includes receiving the ECG signal representing the electrical activity of a heart of an individual over a while, the ECG signal including ECG beats. The method further includes converting each of the ECG beats into symbols. The method also includes identifying an arrhythmia class indicating a type of cardiac arrhythmia associated with the individual from arrhythmia classes meaning respective types of cardiac arrhythmia based on the symbols representing each of the ECG beats.
