The sample size in the study conducted may also play a role in the significance of the frequency. -### Noise reduction +## Noise reduction Noise suppression was performed on the existing ECG data. A three-stage noise reduction was performed to reduce the noise in the ECG signals. First, a Butterworth filter was applied to the signals to remove the high frequency noise. Then a Loess filter was applied to the signals to remove the low frequency noise. Finally, a non-local-means filter was applied to the signals to remove the remaining noise. How the noise reduction was performed in detail can be seen in the following notebook: [noise_reduction.ipynb](notebooks/noise_reduction.ipynb)
