The paper presents a principled approach to selecting changepoint detection algorithms for biomedical time series analysis. Eight key algorithms are compared and evaluated on realistic artificial cardiovascular time series data with varying temporal tolerance, noise, and abnormal conduction (ectopy). The algorithms are then applied to real cardiac time series data of 22 patients with REM-behavior disorder (RBD) and 15 healthy controls using the selected parameters. Features derived from the detected changepoints are used for disease classification via a K-Nearest Neighbors approach. Modified Bayesian Changepoint Detection algorithm showed superior performance in state change identification, while Recursive Mean Difference Maximization achieved the highest true positive rate. For classification, features derived from RMDM provided the highest leave-one-out cross-validation accuracy and true positive rate. The study demonstrates the impact of changepoint algorithm choice on application performance.

This paper helps us better understand how to analyze changes in biomedical data, like heart rhythms, to diagnose diseases. They compare eight different methods for finding these changes and see which one works best in different situations. Then, they use this information to help identify people with a specific disease called REM-behavior disorder. The results show that the choice of method makes a big difference in how well we can predict who has the disease.
