The main purpose of this study is to present a novel personal authentication approach with the electrocardiogram (ECG) signal. The electrocardiogram is a recording of the electrical activity of the heart and the recorded signals can be used for individual verification because ECG signals of one person are never the same as those of others. The discrete wavelet transform was applied for extracting features that are the wavelet coefficients derived from digitized signals sampled from one-lead ECG signal. By the proposed approach applied on 35 normal subjects and 10 arrhythmia patients, the verification rate was 100% for normal subjects and 81% for arrhythmia patients. Furthermore, the performance of the ECG verification system was evaluated by the false acceptance rate (FAR) and false rejection rate (FRR). The FAR was 0.83% and FRR was 0.86% for a database containing only 35 normal subjects. When 10 arrhythmia patients were added into the database, FAR was 12.50% and FRR was 5.11%. The experimental results demonstrated that the proposed approach worked well for normal subjects. For this reason, it can be concluded that ECG used as a biometric measure for personal identity verification is feasible.

In this study, in order to verify the effectiveness of the variable filter band discrete wavelet transform (VFB-DWT) and construction method of the variable-band filter (VBF), a fetal ECG extraction has been carried out and the main results obtained are as follows. The approach to configuration VBF by selecting the frequency band only where the fetal ECG component is present was effective to configure the optimal base sensible signal. The extraction of the fetal ECG was successful by applying the wavelet shrinkage to VFB-DWT, which used the constructed VBF. The information entropy was selected as an evaluation index, and two kinds of ECG signals are used to evaluate the wavelet transform basis between the wavelet packet transform (WPT) and the VFB-DWT. One is a synthesized signal composed of white noise, the maternal ECG and the fetal ECG. The other signal is the real target signal separated by independent component analysis (ICA) and has the mother's body noise, the maternal ECG and the fetal ECG. The result shows that the basis by VBF of the VFB-DWT is better than the basis of the WPT that was chosen by the best basis algorithm (BBA).

The theorems, giving the condition of perfect translation invariance for discrete wavelet transforms, have already been proven. Based on these theorems, the dual-tree complex discrete wavelet transform, the 2-dimensional discrete wavelet transform, the complex wavelet packet transform, the variable-density complex discrete wavelet transform and the real-valued discrete wavelet transform, having perfect translation invariance, were proposed. However, their customizability of wavelets in the frequency domain is limited. In this paper, also based on these theorems, a new type of complex discrete wavelet transform is proposed, which achieves perfect translation invariance with high degree of customizability of wavelets in the frequency domain.
