Abstract:
Singularity is a basic feature of biological signals. Based on the variations of wavelet transform modulus maxima in multi-scales, we studied the basic theorem for analyzing the singularity and proposed an algorithm for calculating lipschitz exponent. Then we applied the algorithm to calculate the singularity of R-wave in ECG. Our study found that the level of singularity of R-waves in ECG between the 10 arrhythm patients randomly chosen and the healthy persons was significantly different, with the level of singularity of R-wave of normal persons remarkably higher than that of arrhythmia patients.

The unit step function, denoted u(t), is zero for negative time values and one for positive time values, exhibiting a discontinuity at t=0. This function often represents abrupt changes, such as the step voltage introduced when turning a car's...

Routh-Hurwitz Criterion II
The first scenario occurs when a singular zero appears in the first column of the Routh table. This situation creates a division by zero issues. To resolve this, a small positive or negative number, denoted as epsilon (∈), is substituted for the zero. The stability analysis proceeds by assuming a sign for ∈. If ∈ is positive, any sign change in the first column of the Routh...
