Does a sequential hypothesis testing algorithm accurately detect ventricular fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia?
A sequential hypothesis testing algorithm can rapidly and accurately detect ventricular fibrillation and tachycardia, allowing for a programmable trade-off between detection time and accuracy.
Thakor et al. (1990) studied this question.
