Automatic Delineation of Seismocardiogram and Gyrocardiogram Signals

The project aims at accomplishing the real-time delineation of both Seismocardiogram and Gyrocardiogram signals (which are associated with different stages of the cardiovascular cycle) and effectively extracting cardiac performance metrics (fiducial points) for use in a non-invasive portable diagnostic tool as the deviations of the either timing or amplitude can be indicative of abnormality in heart performance. In other words, the focus is to find an effective technique for the diagnosis and prognosis of different cardiac diseases to screen at-risk individuals who have cardiac conditions and provide them an early treatment.
