In this Letter, a robust technique is presented to detect and classify different electrocardiogram (ECG) noises including baseline wander (BW), muscle artefact (MA), power line interference (PLI) and additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) based on signal decomposition on mixed codebooks. These codebooks employ temporal and spectral-bound waveforms which provide sparse representation of ECG signals and can extract ECG local waves as well as ECG noises including BW, PLI, MA and AWGN simultaneously. Further, different statistical approaches and temporal features are applied on decomposed signals for detecting the presence of the above mentioned noises. The accuracy and robustness of the proposed technique are evaluated using a large set of noise-free and noisy ECG signals taken from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology-Boston's Beth Israel Hospital (MIT-BIH) arrhythmia database, MIT-BIH polysmnographic database and Fantasia database. It is shown from the results that the proposed technique achieves an average detection accuracy of above 99% in detecting all kinds of ECG noises. Furthermore, average results show that the technique can achieve an average sensitivity of 98.55%, positive productivity of 98.6% and classification accuracy of 97.19% for ECG signals taken from all three databases.
