Abstract
A QRS detection system was developed that uses fuzzy logic to combine the outputs of two QRS detector algorithms. The fuzzy detector can conclude that a QRS is present, that a QRS is not present, or that no decision can be made. Results obtained on ECG waveforms with added simulated noise are presented, and improvements provided by further analysis of the uncertain time points are demonstrated
