Abstract Physiological markers are a primary source of prognostic health monitoring systems. Specifically, with heartbeat sensing, many ailments may be identified in their nascent stage. In clinical settings, the human heartbeat is measured by way of an electrocardiogram (ECG). Common metrics for heartbeat analysis include the heart rate (HR), or average beat-to-beat value over time, and heart rate variability (HRV), or variation of beat-to-beat intervals over time.
