PPG-beats README

PPG-beats is a Matlab library of algorithms to detect heartbeats in photoplethysmogram (PPG) signals.

Purpose

This software is designed to provide open-source algorithms for detecting heartbeats in PPG signals, and to provide a framework with which to assess their performance. The software is intended for use in research, and is therefore aimed at academic researchers.
