To assess the algorithm's effectiveness in discriminating between normal and pathological ECG signals.

Main Methods:

A numerical algorithm was developed to extract d-infinite and maximum Lyapunov exponent from time series data.
The algorithm was applied to a statistically significant number of ECG signals from the MIT-BIH database.
Systematic studies analyzed parameter sensitivity to initial conditions and control parameters.

Main Results:

The algorithm successfully extracted d-infinite and Lyapunov exponent values from ECG signals.
Analysis revealed distinct zones for normal, arrhythmia, and ventricular arrhythmia subjects based on extracted parameters.
Parameter sensitivity to initial conditions was demonstrated, highlighting the method's detailed characterization capability.

Conclusions:

The developed algorithm provides effective nonlinear characterization of ECG signals.
Distinct mapping of cardiac conditions is achievable using extracted nonlinear parameters.
The method shows promise for real-time clinical application in early cardiac pathology diagnosis.
