The fifth annual PhysioNet/Computers in Cardiology Challenge focusses on this question: Is it possible to predict if (or when) an episode of atrial fibrillation will end spontaneously?

Following the success of the first Computers in Cardiology Challenge, we are pleased to offer a new challenge from PhysioNet and Computers in Cardiology 2001. The challenge is to develop a fully automated method to predict the onset of paroxysmal at…

This database of two-channel ECG recordings has been created for use in the Computers in Cardiology Challenge 2004, an open competition with the goal of developing automated methods for predicting spontaneous termination of atrial fibrillation (AF).

This database consists of endocardial recordings from the right atria of 8 patients in atrial fibrillation or flutter. A decapolar catheter with 2-5-2mm spacing (7mm spacing between bipoles) was placed in four separate regions of the heart. In each …

This database includes 25 long-term ECG recordings of human subjects with atrial fibrillation (mostly paroxysmal).

This database includes 84 long-term ECG recordings of subjects with paroxysmal or sustained atrial fibrillation (AF). Each record contains two simultaneously recorded ECG signals digitized at 128 Hz with 12-bit resolution over a 20 mV range; record …

This database includes 35 eight-minute ECG recordings of human subjects who experienced episodes of sustained ventricular tachycardia, ventricular flutter, and ventricular fibrillation.

This database contains 135 pairs of RR interval time series, recorded by implanted cardioverter defibrillators (Medtronic Jewel PlusTM ICD 7218) in 78 subjects. Each series contains between 986 and 1022 RR intervals. One series of each pair includes…

PhysioNet has inaugurated a Sudden Cardiac Death Database to support research and to stimulate progress in this important area of electrophysiology. We initiate this database with 23 complete Holter recordings (originally collected by Scott Greenwal…

This database of two-channel ECG recordings has been created for use in the Computers in Cardiology Challenge 2001, an open competition with the goal of developing automated methods for predicting paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF). See the challe…
