초록

Magnetocardiogram (MCG) topography is a useful diagnostic technique that employs multi-channel magnetocardiograms. Measurement of artifact-free MCG signals is essenctial to obtain MCG topography or map for a diagnosis of human heart. Principal component analysis (PCA) combined with an artificial neural network (ANN) is proposed to remove a pulse-type artifact in the MCG signals. The algorithm is composed of a PCA module which decomposes the obtained signal into its principal components, followed by an ANN module for the classification of the components automatically. In the experiments with volunteer subjects, 97% of the decisions that were made by the ANN were identical to those by the human experts. Using the proposed technique, the MCG topography was successfully obtained without the artifact.
