function [qrs, ECGp, pc] = MyBeatDect(ECG, Fs)
%
% function: computes beat detection
% 
% IN: 
%     ECG: raw data Nx4 matrix, N=Fs*60s
%     Fs:  sample rate
%
% OUT:
%     qrs:  detected beat time series [smpls] 
%           Nx4 matrix. Columns contain detected beats, padded with 0 to fill to N  
%     ECGp: PCA-ECG is Nx4 matrix
%     pc:   selected PC
