Improving the Quality of ECGs Collected Using Mobile Phones: Papers about the Challenge


The following paper describes the PhysioNet/Computing in Cardiology Challenge. Please cite this publication when referencing the Challenge.

The following papers were presented at the Computing in Cardiology Conference.

Update: Inspired by this Challenge, the journal Physiological Measurement has devoted a focus issue [2012 Sept;33(9)] to the subject of signal quality in cardiorespiratory monitoring, with eleven articles on this topic, including nine written by Challenge participants.
