%% Convert heartbeat type of annotation from valid ECG formats to EC57 AAMI
% An alternative interface to AnnotationFilterConvert.
% 
% Example
% 
%   [QRS_locations, true_labels ] = Annotation_process(ann, recording_format, labeling_format)
% 
%   where:
%     *ann is a annotation structure (ECG_annotations prop. in ECGwrapper
%        object). Mandatory fields for this function are: time and anntyp. 
%     *recording_format is a string with a valid recording format read by
%        read_ecg (cKnownFormats).
%     *labeling_format is a string to map the annotations, possible values
%        are AAMI (N,S,V,F,Q) or AAMI2 (N,S,V&F,Q).
