Abstract :
This work presents a study about normalized cumulants for quantifying the variations of the spectral temporal mapping obtained from signal-average electrocardiogram (SAECG). The parameter obtained from normalized cumulants estimation can be used in spectral turbulence analysis and so it helps to resolve the problem of chronic chagasic patients classification in early stages
