This program implements the beat-by-beat comparison algorithms described in
AAMI/ANSI EC38:1998, the American National Standard for ambulatory ECGs, and
in AAMI EC57:1998, the American National Standard for Testing and Reporting
Performance Results of Cardiac Rhythm and ST Segment Measurement Algorithms.
These standards are available from AAMI, 1110 N Glebe Road, Suite 220,
Arlington, VA 22201 USA (http://www.aami.org/).

The -f, -O, -t, and -w options modify the comparison algorithm used by bxb in
ways not permitted by EC38:1998 or EC57:1998.  These options are provided for
the use of developers, who may find them useful for obtaining a more detailed
understanding of algorithm errors.

    /* Peform the comparison.  Each time through the loop below, a beat label
       pair is identified and counted (or else a non-beat annotation is
       discarded), and an annotation is read from each file from which an
       annotation was paired or discarded.  Note that only one of the four
       numbered actions is performed on each iteration.

       The complex loop termination condition is dependent on end_time, which
       is not changed during execution of the loop.  There are three ways the
       loop termination condition can be satisfied:
       - If the length of the comparison is known, either because it was
         specified using the `-t' option or because the header file specifies
	 the record length, the loop ends when both T and t are greater than
	 end_time.  This is the usual case.
       - If the length of the comparison is unknown (end_time = -1), the loop
         ends when EOF is reached in the reference annotation file (T =
	 huge_time).
       - If the option `-t 0' was specified (end_time = 0), the loop ends when
         EOF is first reached in either annotation file (T or t = huge_time).

    24 November 2002:  The comparison algorithm has been very slightly modified
    by the addition of an alternative criterion for accepting a match in cases
    1 and 3 below.  The original match criterion for case 1 was:
            if (T-t <= match_dt && T-t < abs(T-tprime)) ...
    and for case 3, the original match criterion was:
            if (t-T <= match_dt && t-T < abs(t-Tprime)) ...
    The alternative criteria were added to account for rare cases in which
    (for case 1) both t and tprime are in the match window, or (for case 3)
    both T and Tprime are in the match window.

    Consider case 3.  The original algorithm paired the current test and
    reference annotations only if their times matched more closely than
    those of the current test and next reference annotations.  The modified
    algorithm also checks how well the next test annotation matches the next
    reference annotation;  if this is a better match than that between the
    current test and next reference annotations, then the current annotations
    are paired.  An example may make this clear;  assume match_dt = 37 and
    the following annotation times:
         ref1 = 96	test1 = 128
	 ref2 = 160	test2 = 185
    Since test1-ref1 (32) is not less than ref2-test1 (also 32), the original
    algorithm would not match ref1 and test1, and would count ref1 as missed.
    Since ref2-test1 (32) is not less than test2-ref2 (15), the original
    algorithm would also fail to match test1 and ref2, and would count test1
    as an extra detection.  The modified algorithm finds that test2-ref2 (15)
    is less than ref2-test1 (32), and therefore excludes ref2 as a possible
    match for test1;  having done so, it then matches ref1 and test1.  Similar
    reasoning applies in case 1, in which the roles of ref and test are
    reversed.

    Note that the only situation in which these modifications will have an
    effect is when consecutive reference annotations and consecutive test
    annotations occur at intervals less than or equal to twice the match
    window.  Generally, the match window is chosen so that this is unlikely;
    using the standard window, this can only happen if both the true heart
    rate and the detected heart rate exceed 200 bpm.

    Thanks to James Pardey for reporting the problem with the original
    algorithm and for providing a test case that was helpful for developing
    and testing these modifications.
