The QRS detection algorithm is substantial for healthcare monitoring and diagnostic applications. A low error detection without adding more computation is a big challenge for researchers. The proposed QRS detection algorithm is a simple, real-time, and high-performance hybrid technique based on decision tree and artificial neural networks (ANN). In this study, the five stages algorithm is designed, implemented, and evaluated for wearable healthcare applications. The first stage is filtering the original ECG signal to reduce the noise and baseline wandering. After that, a maximum or minimum moving-window for positive or negative peaks respectively is searching R-peaks for any expected value and finding the Q and S corresponding to this R-peak. Only these values from all ECG samples are passed to the next stage for feature extraction to reduce the algorithm computation. Stage four is excluded any unlikely points using the mean of the slope and level based on a simple decision tree. Finally, artificial neural networks are designed to classify the rest point for QRS detection using ANNs for each peak polarity to improve the network’s performance by separating the data as a positive or negative peak. The algorithm is evaluated based on MATLAB using the MIT-BIH Arrhythmia Database, and the results show a low error rate detection of 0.25%, high sensitivity of 99.86%, and high predictivity of 99.89%. We develop a new approach for real-time QRS detection with low resources and high efficiency compared with other approaches.

AbstractIn this paper, we propose three methods for door state classification with the goal to improve robot navigation in indoor spaces. These methods were also developed to be used in other areas and applications since they are not limited to door detection as other related works are. Our methods work offline, in low-powered computers as the Jetson Nano, in real-time with the ability to differentiate between open, closed and semi-open doors. We use the 3D object classification, PointNet, real-time semantic segmentation algorithms such as, FastFCN, FC-HarDNet, SegNet and BiSeNet, the object detection algorithm, DetectNet and 2D object classification networks, AlexNet and GoogleNet. We built a 3D and RGB door dataset with images from several indoor environments using a 3D Realsense camera D435. This dataset is freely available online. All methods are analysed taking into account their accuracy and the speed of the algorithm in a low powered computer. We conclude that it is possible to have a door classification algorithm running in real-time on a low-power device.

Abstract In simulating the three dimensional packing process with arbitrary shaped objects, the task of detecting interference between objects is important and very difficult. This paper, representing the three dimensional packing space and objects with an octree, presents an effective interference detection algorithm, which can overcome the performance shortcomings that the conventional methods have in terms of real-time response, computer memory and computational accuracy. By recording the distribution status of packing space in the “bits” of short integers, the data space can be compressed to 1/16 of that used by conventional algorithms.

abstract An automatic seismic signal detection algorithm based on the Walsh transform has been developed for short-period data sampled at 20 samples/sec. Since the amplitude of Walsh function is either +1 or −1, the Walsh transform can be accomplished in a computer with a series of shifts and fixed-point additions. The savings in computation time makes it possible to compute the Walsh transform and to perform prewhitening and band-pass filtering in the Walsh domain with a microcomputer for use in real-time signal detection. The algorithm was initially programmed in FORTRAN on a Raytheon Data Systems 500 minicomputer. Tests utilizing seismic data recorded in Dallas, Albuquerque, and Norway indicate that the algorithm has a detection capability comparable to a human analyst. Programming of the detection algorithm in machine language on a Z80 microprocessor-based computer has been accomplished; run time on the microcomputer is approximately 110 real time. The detection capability of the Z80 version of the algorithm is not degraded relative to the FORTRAN version.

To meet the high real-time performance and high accuracy requirements of signal detection in the rail splicing process, this paper proposes a new type of magnetic grid rail splicing method based on accurately zeroing output signal phase difference of two magnetic grid reading heads, thus establishing two reading heads “shift” rules. The accurate zero setting technology of phase difference is based on Nuttall window algorithm, which doesn’t need to give the exact signal frequency beforehand and sample periodically, and can effectively eliminate phase errors. So this algorithm is suitable for detecting signal phase difference when reading heads go over buff joints with any speed at any initial position. Additionally, simulation test and experimental verification were performed on this detection algorithm and “shift” rules. The results show that, the method mentioned in this paper can real-time detect the phase difference by “shift” rules, when reading heads go over buff joints with any speed or any acceleration.
