The authors are: - Joachim Behar (DES-OX,BME-IIT) - Fernando Andreotti (DES-OX,IBMT-TUD) - Julien Oster (DES-OX) - Sebastian Zaunseder (IBMT-TUD) - Gari D. Clifford (DES-OX) Contacts: joachim.behar@oxfordalumni.org & fernando.andreotti@eng.ox.ac.uk ## History FECGSYN is built upon the work from McSharry et al. [1] and Sameni et al. [2] The original code from McSharry et al. is available in MATLAB and in C on PhysioNet. The code developed by Sameni et al. is part of the OSET toolbox, also available online in MATLAB.
