Abstract
Ventricular arrhythmias are often difficult to evaluate on a quantitative basis.We present here the results of analysis with traditional Fourier transforms, and recurrence quantification analysis. The results indicate that recurrence quantification can better distinguish them, most likely due to its ability to handle nonstationary, nonlinear data.
