bxb

    function varargout=bxb(varargin)

     report=bxb(recName,refAnn,testAnn,reportFile,beginTime,stopTime,matchWindow)

        Wrapper to WFDB BXB:
             http://www.physionet.org/physiotools/wag/bxb-1.htm

     Creates a report file ("reportFile) using
     ANSI/AAMI-standard beat-by-beat annotation comparator.

     Ouput Parameters:

     report (Optional)
           Returns a structure containing information on the 'reportFile'.
           This can be used to read report File that has been previously
           generated by BXB (see Example 2 below), into the workspace.
           The structure has the following fields:
           report.data     -Numerical data matching the Algorithm table
           report.textdata -Text data describing the Algorithm table

    Input Parameters:
     recName
           String specifying the WFDB record file.

     refAnn
           String specifying the reference WFDB annotation file.

     testAnn
           String specifying the test WFDB annotation file.

     reportFile
           String representing the file at which the report will be
           written to.

     beginTime (Optional)
           String specifying the begin time in WFDB time format. The
           WFDB time format is described at
           http://www.physionet.org/physiotools/wag/intro.htm#time.
           Default starts comparison after 5 minutes.

     stopTime (Optional)
           String specifying the stop time in WFDB format (default is end of
           record).

     matchWindow (Optional)
           1x1 WFDB Time specifying the match window size (default = 0.15 s).

     Version 1.1
     Since 0.9.0

     %Example (this will generate a /mitdb/100.qrs file at your directory):
     %Compares SQRS detetor with the MITDB ATR annotations

     [refAnn]=rdann('mitdb/100','atr');
     sqrs('mitdb/100');
     [testAnn]=rdann('mitdb/100','qrs');
     report=bxb('mitdb/100','atr','qrs','bxbReport.txt')

     %Example 2 - Load variables from a report file that has been previously
     %generated
      report=bxb([],[],[],'bxbReport.txt')
