Experiments conducted on selected records of the MIT-BIH Arrythmia Database indicate that compression ratios of about 10X are achievable with average PRD of 0.8450%. © 2004IEEE. %K Electrocardiography; Image coding; Signal processing; Wavelet transforms, Huffman coding; Linear quantization; Wavelet footprint representation, Image compression %P A283-A286 %V A %A H.T.
