ABSTRACT

A comparative analysis is made of various methods for processing electrocardiograms and RR-interval sequences. This analysis was carried out by using standard nonlinear-dynamics algorithms and methods. Apart from that, we assessed the expediency of using a number of characteristics to classify the cardiovascular system's state under stress.
