An open source benchmarked toolbox for cardiovascular waveform and interval analysis

Objective: This work aims to validate a set of data processing methods for variability metrics, which hold promise as potential indicators for autonomic function, prediction of adverse cardiovascular outcomes, psychophysiological status, and general wellness. Although the investigation of heart rate variability (HRV) has been prevalent for several decades, the methods used for preprocessing, windowing, and choosing appropriate parameters lacks...
