Abstract
A method is proposed for determining the start and end points of the filtered QRS complex when recording late ventricular potentials by Simson's method. The method involves testing hypotheses on the positions of those points defined by maximum likelihood. The results show that the accuracy provided by this method is higher than that in Simson's method.
