Well, I mean… I’m guessing (?) you mean this algorithm, if so it is described here:

A quick search of github for Java implementations, and I found:

The Clifford implementation in C was adopted into Java by Oster, here:

- [GitHub - dongzhenye/ipm-ecg-analysis: An Java based open source electrocardiograph(ECG) analysis software, imported from Google Code.](https://github.com/dongzhenye/ipm-ecg-analysis)

…and Chen’s, here:

- [GitHub - cc79128/QRS\_algorithm: HC Chen, SW Chen , "A Moving Average based Filtering System with its Application to Real-time QRS Detection " , Computers in Cardiology, 2003](https://github.com/cc79128/QRS_algorithm)
