Analysis stages performed in this study. In panel (a) is the flow chart showing the ECG processing steps for T-wave time-warping markers extraction. The analysis starts with the original ECG, followed by a filtering step before spatial PCA analysis, to conclude with markers computation. Panel (b) shows an example of the linear and nonlinear time-warping markers for the same patient as in Fig. 5a. In particular, subpanel (i) shows both the reference (blue) and the i-th MWTW (red) while subpanel (ii) shows the warping function (red dotted line) that optimally relates the reference and studied MWTWs. Subpanel (iii) shows the MWTWs after warping and subpanel (iv) are the normalized reference and warped MWTWs.
