Abstract

Heart disease is a common disease affecting human health. Electrocardiogram (ECG) classification is the most effective and direct method to detect heart disease, which is helpful to the diagnosis of most heart disease symptoms. At present, most ECG diagnosis depends on the personal judgment of medical staff, which leads to heavy burden and low efficiency of medical staff. Automatic ECG analysis technology will help the work of relevant medical staff. In this paper, we use the MIT-BIH ECG database to extract the QRS features of ECG signals by using the Pan-Tompkins algorithm. After extraction of the samples, -means clustering is used to screen the samples, and then, RBF neural network is used to analyze the ECG information. The classifier trains the electrical signal features, and the classification accuracy of the final classification model can reach 98.9%. Our experiments show that this method can effectively detect the abnormality of ECG signal and implement it for the diagnosis of heart disease.
