Biomedical Signal Processing: Advances in Theory, Algorithms and Applications [Paperback]

This book reports on the latest advances in the study of biomedical signal processing, and discusses in detail a number of open problems concerning clinical, biomedical and neural signals. It methodically collects and presents in a unified form the research findings previously scattered throughout various scientific journals and conference proceedings. In addition, the chapters are self-contained and can be read independently. Accordingly, the book will be of interest to university researchers, R&D engineers and graduate students who wish to learn the core principles of biomedical signal analysis, algorithms, and applications, while also offering a valuable reference work for biomedical engineers and clinicians who wish to learn more about the theory and recent applications of neural engineering and biomedical signal processing.
