I'm working with an ECG signal and I want to delete the drift noise. In Matlab it works fine this code:
[c, l]=wavedec(ecgsignal,8,'coif5');
a9=wrcoef('a',c,l,'coif5',8);
where ecgsignal is the original signal with noise and a9 is the filtered signal. In the attached picture the ECG pre e post filtering operation.
I'm trying to made the same in python with this code:
coeffs=pywt.wavedec(ecgsignal,'coif5', level=8)
renc=pywt.waverec(coeffs, 'coif5')
but the reconstructed signal, renc, has the noise.
Can someone help me to understand what is not correct? I use the wrong commands of the PyWavelet library?
I think pywt.upcoef() would be a direct equivalent of MATLAB's wrcoef().
Moreover, you actually do approximation rather than explicit filtering - which is ok if it server your purpose, but it's good to keep it in mind.
Hi Michal,
I tryied with upcoef() but the result is the same. This the code I used:
(cA, cD) = pywt.dwt(ecgsignal, 'db2', 'sp1');
ecgp=pywt.upcoef('a', cA, 'db2');
Please refer the attached paper related to wavelets and ECG filtering for noise removal as well as baseline correction.

great input @Vikant!
@Giuseppe it would be interesting to compare outputs of
[c,l]=wavedec(ecgsignal,8,'coif5');
and
(cA, cD) = pywt.dwt(ecgsignal, 'db2', 'sp1')
