Signal Artifacts and Techniques for Artifacts and Noise Removal Md. Kafiul Islam, Amir Rastegarnia, and Saeid Sanei
Abstract Biosignals have quite low signal-to-noise ratio and are often corrupted by different types of artifacts and noises originated from both external and internal sources. The presence of such artifacts and noises poses a great challenge in proper analysis of the recorded signals and thus useful information extraction or classification in the subsequent stages becomes erroneous. This eventually results either in a wrong diagnosis of the diseases or misleading the feedback associated with such biosignal-based systems. Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) and neural prostheses are among the popular ones. There have been many signal processing-based algorithms proposed in the literature for reliable identification and removal of such artifacts from the biosignal recordings. The purpose of this chapter is to introduce different sources of artifacts and noises present in biosignal recordings, such as EEG, ECG, and EMG, describe how the artifact characteristics are different from signal-of-interest, and systematically analyze the state-of-the-art signal processing techniques for reliable identification of these offending artifacts and finally removing them from the raw recordings without distorting the signal-of-interest. The analysis of the biosignal recordings in time, frequency and tensor domains is of major interest. In addition, the impact of artifact and noise removal is examined for BCI and clinical diagnostic applications. Since most biosignals are recorded in low sampling rate, the noise removal algorithms can be often applied in real time. In the case of tensor domain systems, more care has to be taken to comply with real time applications. Therefore, in the final part of this chapter, both quantitative and qualitative measures

It is also shown that availability of some a priori clinical or statistical information can boost the algorithm performance in many cases.
