We describe the multiresolution wavelet analysis of blood pressure waves in vasovagal syncope affected patients compared with healthy people. We argue that there exist discriminating criteria which allow us to isolate particular features,…
Wavelets provide the flexibility to analyse stochastic processes at different scales. Here, we apply them to multivariate point processes as a means of detecting and analysing unknown non-stationarity, both within and across data streams.…
We present the multiscale entropy analysis of short term physiological time series of simultaneously acquired samples of heart rate, blood pressure and lung volume, from healthy subjects and from subjects with Chronic Heart Failure.…
We focus on various measures of the fluctuations of the sequence of intervals between beats of the human heart, and how such fluctuations can be used to assess the presence or likelihood of cardiovascular disease. We examine sixteen such…
We compare two state-of-the-art non-linear techniques for nonparametric function estimation via piecewise constant approximation: the taut string and the Unbalanced Haar methods. While it is well-known that the latter is multiscale, it is…
The clinical and economic burden of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) poses a global challenge. Growing evidence suggests an early assessment of arterial stiffness can provide insights into the pathogenesis of CVDs. However, it remains…
Line spectral estimation (LSE) from multi snapshot samples is studied utilizing the variational Bayesian methods. Motivated by the recently proposed variational line spectral estimation (VALSE) method for a single snapshot, we develop the…
This paper proposes a novel, simple and minimally invasive method for stroke volume variation assessment using arterial blood pressure measurements. The arterial blood pressure signal is reconstructed using a semi-classical signal analysis…
In this paper, the wavelet analysis is used to study the ECG signal. We show that the high-frequency wavelet components of the ECG signal contain information on the functioning of the heart and can be used in diagnosis. We describe the…
Mathematical models and numerical simulations offer a non-invasive way to explore cardiovascular phenomena, providing access to quantities that cannot be measured directly. In this study, we start with a one-dimensional multiscale blood…
We applied multiresolution wavelet analysis to the sequence of times between human heartbeats (R-R intervals) and have found a scale window, between 16 and 32 heartbeats, over which the widths of the R-R wavelet coefficients fall into…
The use of observed wearable sensor data (e.g., photoplethysmograms [PPG]) to infer health measures (e.g., glucose level or blood pressure) is a very active area of research. Such technology can have a significant impact on health…
Two mathematical methods, the Fourier and wavelet transforms, were used to study the short term cardiovascular control system. Time series, picked from electrocardiogram and arterial blood pressure lasting 6 minutes, were analyzed in supine…
We present a novel framework for discrete multiresolution analysis of graph signals. The main analytical tool is the samplet transform, originally defined in the Euclidean framework as a discrete wavelet-like construction, tailored to the…
Arterial pulse waves contain clinically useful information: their intensity varies with cardiac performance, their speed (pulse wave velocity; PWV) depends on arterial stiffness and their reflection is affected by conduit artery tone. Here…
We demonstrate that it is possible to distinguish with a complete certainty between healthy subjects and patients with various dysfunctions of the cardiac nervous system by way of multiresolutional wavelet transform of RR intervals. We…
We introduce the wavelet scattering spectra which provide non-Gaussian models of time-series having stationary increments. A complex wavelet transform computes signal variations at each scale. Dependencies across scales are captured by the…
This research examines the simultaneous influences of height and weight on longitudinally measured systolic and diastolic blood pressure in children. Previous studies have shown that both height and weight are positively associated with…
In this paper we give a survey on various multiscale methods for the numerical solution of second order hyperbolic equations in highly heterogeneous media. We concentrate on the wave equation and distinguish between two classes of…
In the present paper we have reported a wavelet based time-frequency multiresolution analysis of an ECG signal. The ECG (electrocardiogram), which records hearts electrical activity, is able to provide with useful information about the type…
