Wrapper around physionet wfdb library
So far, only the getvec function to load a record is implemented.
First download the database of interest (or a single record). See
https://physionet.org/faq.shtml#downloading-databases for an
explanation on how to do that. Suppose you downloaded the MITDB
database into your home directory, under ~/data/mitdb.
Second, to load record 100 from your local copy of MITDB, do:
library(wfdb4R)
ecg <- getvec("~/data/mitdb/100")
str(ecg)
results:
num [1:2, 1:650000] 995 1011 995 1011 995 ...
This a matrix with one row per signal.
Install the Physionet wfdb library and make sure it is visible to your C/C++ compiler.
From R, first install the devtools library, then do
library(devtools)
install_github("gdupret/wfdb4R")
