  • Abstract
    Recently an electrocardiographic sign has been described enabling the recognition of 3-vessel or left main stem disease. In this study, using two self-learning techniques, the neural network and the induction algorithm approach, this sign was validated and further refined. Based on 113 ECGs, (63 training and 50 for testing), the influence of the number of parameters and the effect of additional weight factors to direct the classification process, was evaluated.<>
