function qrs_pos = jqrs(ecg,varargin)
% QRS detector based on the P&T method. This is an offline implementation
% of the detector.
%
% inputs
% ecg: one ecg channel on which to run the detector (required)
% in [mV]
% varargin
% THRES: energy threshold of the detector (default: 0.6)
% [arbitrary units]
% REF_PERIOD: refractory period in sec between two R-peaks (default: 0.250)
% in [ms]
% fs: sampling frequency (default: 1KHz) [Hz]
% fid_vec: if some subsegments should not be used for finding the
% optimal threshold of the P&Tthen input the indices of
% the corresponding points here
% SIGN_FORCE: force sign of peaks (positive value/negative value).
% Particularly usefull if we do window by window detection and want to
% unsure the sign of the peaks to be the same accross
% windows (which is necessary to build an FECG template)
% debug: 1: plot to bebug, 0: do not plot
%
% outputs
% qrs_pos: indexes of detected peaks (in samples)
% sign: sign of the peaks (a pos or neg number)
% en_thres: energy threshold used

% NOTES
% Finding the P&T energy threshold: in order to avoid crash due to local
% huge bumps, threshold is choosen at 98-99% of amplitude distribution.
% first sec removed for choosing the thres because of filter init lag.
%
% Search back: look for missed peaks by lowering the threshold in area where the
% RR interval variability (RRv) is higher than 1.5*medianRRv
%
% Sign of the QRS (signForce): look for the mean sign of the R-peak over the
% first 30sec when looking for max of abs value. Then look for the
% R-peaks over the whole record that have this given sign. This allows to
% not alternate between positive and negative detections which might
% happen in some occasion depending on the ECG morphology. It is also
% better than forcing to look for a max or min systematically.
