ecg = load('matlab_matrix.mat')
Fs = 200;
B_lp_1 = [1 zeros(1,5) -2 zeros(1,5) 1]/32;
A_lp_1 = [1 -2 1];
ecg_lp = filter(B_lp_1,A_lp_1,ecg); %Error here
ecg_lp = ecg_lp/max(ecg_lp);

How to rectify this error?

when you load() and assign the output to a variable, the output becomes a struct with one field for each input variable in the .mat file.
You are then passing that struct into filter, instead of accessing the data from the struct.
ecg_struct = load('matlab_matrix.mat', 'ecg');
ecg = ecg_struct.ecg;

ecg_struct = load('matlab_matrix.mat');
fn = fieldnames(ecg_struct);
if length(fn) ~= 1
fprintf(2, 'Warning: file contains %d different variables, arbitrarily picking the first: %s\n', length(fn), fn{1});
end
ecg = ecg_struct.(fn{1});
