    abstract = {Automatic detection of R-peak is changing into a prominent tool for automatizing the designation
of significant cardiovascular components. R-wave peaks in electrocardiography is a major indicator of the
cardiac dysfunction. Most of the R-wave peaks prospectors have great troubles owing to non-stationary attitude
of the ECG signal. In our current research, a smart technique established on bases of median filter and an
automated R-wave peaks detection technique has been proposed. First median filter approach is used to
eliminate the base line from the ECG signal. Then an efficient signal reshaping with sequential steps was
proposed to detect the QRS position. The efficiency of the proposed work has been tested on MIT-BIH
arrhythmia database. The technique has also been applied to a real signal for patients with different heart
diseases. The proposed technique showed better performance and faster detection compared to the latter
techniques at the same time. Error rate detection is low 0.05%, Positive predictivity (P+) of 99.85% Sensitivity
(Se) of 99.94% and an average F-score of 0.999 are accomplished for the suggested ECG detector which are
superior to the former results.}
