This report will present a methodology and algorithm to detect heart murmurs from raw phonocardiogram signal (PCG). The algorithm is divided into 4 phases namely: ‘Preprocessing’, S1/S2 detection, Murmur detection and Murmur intensity calculation. In the ‘Preprocessing stage, the raw PCG signal is f...
