Electrocardiogram (ECG) is considered as the main signal that can be used to diagnose different kinds of diseases related to human heart. During the recording process, it is usually contaminated with different kinds of noise which includes power-line interference, baseline wandering and muscle contraction. In order to clean the ECG signal, several noise removal techniques have been used such as adaptive filters, empirical mode decomposition, Hilbert-Huang transform, wavelet-based algorithm, discrete wavelet transforms, modulus maxima of wavelet transform, patch based method, and many more. Unfortunately, all the presented methods cannot be used for online processing since it takes long time to clean the ECG signal. The current research presents a unique method for ECG denoising using a novel approach of adaptive filters. The suggested method was tested by using a simulated signal using MATLAB software under different scenarios. Instead of using a reference signal for ECG signal denoising, the presented model uses a unite delay and the primary ECG signal itself. Least mean square (LMS), normalized least mean square (NLMS), and Leaky LMS were used as adaptation algorithms in this paper.

Denoising a signal is one of the most important tasks in signal processing. Electrocardiogram (ECG) test gives more efficient result to analyze the heart diseases. The amplitude and frequency of the ECG signals are added with various noises and that may lead to a wrong analysis of ECG or it is difficult to interpret and quality is degraded. In this paper three different noises are added to raw ECG signal, Power-line Interference noise (PLI), Baseline Wandering (BW) noise and Composite Noise (CN). The noisy signal is pre-processed using bandpass filter, low-frequency ECG signal is selected by applying DWT, CEEMD (Complementary Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition), LMS (Least Mean Square) and NLMS (Normalized Least Mean Square) are the different filtering techniques used to denoised. To increase the signal quality, the denoised ECG is applied to Kalman Smoother. Inverse wavelet transforms, which reconstruct signal without destructing features of ECG signal. The simulation result shows that the proposed system with better performance compared to another traditional system in terms of Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR), Correlation Coefficient (CCR), Percentage Root mean square Difference (PRD) and the Mean Square Error (MSE).

Emg Signal

Electromyogram (EMG) signals are mostly affected by a large number of artifacts. Most commonly affecting artifacts are power line interference (PLW), baseline noise and ECG noise. This work focuses on a novel attenuation noise removal strategy which is concentrated on adaptive filtering concepts. In this paper, an enhanced squirrel search (ESS) algorithm is applied to remove noise using adaptive filters. The noise eliminating filters namely adaptive least mean square (LMS) filter and adaptive recursive least square (RLS) filters are designed, which is correlated with an ESS. This novel algorithm yields better performance than other existing algorithms. Here the performances are measured in terms of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in decibel, maximum error (ME), mean square error (MSE), standard deviation, simulation time and mean value difference. The proposed work has been implemented at the MATLAB simulation platform. Testing of their noise attenuation capability is also validated with different evolutionary algorithms namely squirrel search, particle swarm optimization (PSO), artificial bee colony (ABC), firefly, ant colony optimization (ACO) and cuckoo search (CS). The proposed work eliminates the noises and provides noise-free EMG signal at the output which is highly efficient when compared with existing methodologies. Our proposed work achieves 4%, 40%, 4%, 7%, 9% and 70% better performance than the literature mentioned in the results.

<em>Impulsive Noise is the sudden burst noise of short duration. Mostly it causes by electronic devices and electrosurgical noise in biomedical signals at the time of acquisition. In this work, Electrocardiograph (ECG) signal is considered and tried to remove impulsive noise from it. Impulsive noise in ECG signal is random type of noise. The objective of this work is to remove the noise using different adaptive algorithms and comparison is made among those algorithms. Initially the impulsive noise in sinusoidal signal is synthesized and tested for different algorithms like LMS, NLMS, RLS and SSRLS. Further those algorithms are modified in a new way to weight variation. The proposed novel approach is applied in the corrupted ECG signal to remove the noise. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is verified for ECG signal with impulsive noise as compared to the traditional approaches as well as previously proposed approaches. Also the performance of our approach is validated by SNR computation. Significant improvement in SNR is achieved after removal of noise.</em>

Adaptive Noise

Removal of noise components of speech signals in mobile applications  is an important step to facilitate high resolution signals to the user. Throughout the communication method the speech signals are tainted by numerous non stationary noises. The Least Mean Square (LMS) technique is a fundamental adaptive technique usedbroadly in numerouspurposes as anoutcome of its plainness as well as toughness. In LMS technique, an importantfactor is the step size. It bewell-known that if the union rate of the LMS technique will be rapidif the step size is speedy, but the steady-state mean square error (MSE) will raise. On the rival, for the diminutive step size, the steady state MSE will be minute, but the union rate will be conscious. Thus, the step size offers anexchange among the convergence rate and the steady-state MSE of the LMS technique. Build the step size variable before fixed to recover the act of the LMS technique, explicitly, prefer large step size values at the time of the earlyunion of the LMS technique, and usetiny step size values when the structure is near up to its steady state, which results in Normalized LMS (NLMS) algorithms. In this practice the step size is not stable and changes along with the fault signal at that time. The Less mathematical difficulty of the adaptive filter is extremely attractive in speech enhancement purposes. This drop usually accessible by extract either the input data or evaluation fault.  The algorithms depend on an extract of fault or data are Sign Regressor (SR) Algorithms. We merge these sign version to various adaptive noise cancellers. SR Weight NLMS (SRWNLMS), SR Error NLMS (SRENLMS), SR Unbiased LMS (SRUBLMS) algorithms are individual introduced as a quality factor. These Adaptive noise cancellers are compared with esteem to Signal to Noise Ratio Improvement (SNRI).
