Abstract

Our computer program allows the calculations of commonly accepted six heart rate variability (HRV) parameters in time domain. Those parameters, obtained from long-time one-channel ECG signal recordings, were used for detection of sleep apnea. The classification model was based on the Support Vector Machines (SVM) method using the discriminative Radial Basis Function (RBF) kernel. The aim of study was to check how the length of analyzed single channel ECG overnight recording influences on accuracy of sleep apnea detection.
