The thesis is focused on the recognition methods study used in one-dimensional signal processing. A lot of recognition methods exist, this thesis briefly describes the principle of some of them, e.g. artificial neural networks, fuzzy systems, expert systems and decision trees. Dynamic time warping (DTW) method has been chosen for signal processing available from UBMI database. DTW can be used as a non-linear signal processing method. The result of this method is to determine the similarity of two compared signals on the basis of their distance calculation. One of the reasons for choosing this method was the possibility of various length signal processing. The principle of the method as well as the calculation of the distance between two input data sequences is described in the thesis. DTW path finding method is also mentioned. The method was applied on randomly selected numbers and a set of simulated signals. The method was applied to ECG and action potential signals recorded on the isolated rabbit heart. DTW was used to evaluate shape changes of these signals in repeated phases of the experiment known as ischemia and reperfusion. Selected cardiac cycles were detected and included into different experiment phases on the basis of calculated distance results using DTW. Sensitivity was selected as an evaluative criterion of this classification method. It reached a value of 65%. DTW algorithm was further tested on the selected cardiac cycle mapping to the corresponding minute record in the selected experiment phase. It reached a sensitivity of 68.3%. The motion artifact appearance was monitored using DTW on AP signals. The method functioned more precisely on signals measured in ischemia phases. Along with the above mentioned, the thesis discusses all aspects of heart electrical manifestation activities called as ECG signals and action potentials, such as origin, propagation, recording, post-processing and measuring out.
