A robust deep convolutional neural network for the classification of abnormal cardiac rhythm using single lead electrocardiograms of variable length.

Physiological measurement
OBJECTIVE: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a major cause of hospitalization and death in the United States. Moreover, as the average age of individuals increases around the world, early detection and diagnosis of AF become even more pressing. In this pap...

Multiclass Classification of Cardiac Arrhythmia Using Improved Feature Selection and SVM Invariants.

Computational and mathematical methods in medicine
Arrhythmia is considered a life-threatening disease causing serious health issues in patients, when left untreated. An early diagnosis of arrhythmias would be helpful in saving lives. This study is conducted to classify patients into one of the sixte...

Automatic QRS complex detection using two-level convolutional neural network.

Biomedical engineering online
BACKGROUND: The QRS complex is the most noticeable feature in the electrocardiogram (ECG) signal, therefore, its detection is critical for ECG signal analysis. The existing detection methods largely depend on hand-crafted manual features and paramete...

Development of models for predicting Torsade de Pointes cardiac arrhythmias using perceptron neural networks.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: Blockage of some ion channels and in particular, the hERG (human Ether-a'-go-go-Related Gene) cardiac potassium channel delays cardiac repolarization and can induce arrhythmia. In some cases it leads to a potentially life-threatening arrh...

A deep convolutional neural network model to classify heartbeats.

Computers in biology and medicine
The electrocardiogram (ECG) is a standard test used to monitor the activity of the heart. Many cardiac abnormalities will be manifested in the ECG including arrhythmia which is a general term that refers to an abnormal heart rhythm. The basis of arrh...

Combining Low-dimensional Wavelet Features and Support Vector Machine for Arrhythmia Beat Classification.

Scientific reports
Automatic feature extraction and classification are two main tasks in abnormal ECG beat recognition. Feature extraction is an important prerequisite prior to classification since it provides the classifier with input features, and the performance of ...

Premature ventricular contraction detection combining deep neural networks and rules inference.

Artificial intelligence in medicine
Premature ventricular contraction (PVC), which is a common form of cardiac arrhythmia caused by ectopic heartbeat, can lead to life-threatening cardiac conditions. Computer-aided PVC detection is of considerable importance in medical centers or outpa...

Patient-Specific Deep Architectural Model for ECG Classification.

Journal of healthcare engineering
Heartbeat classification is a crucial step for arrhythmia diagnosis during electrocardiographic (ECG) analysis. The new scenario of wireless body sensor network- (WBSN-) enabled ECG monitoring puts forward a higher-level demand for this traditional E...

Reducing false arrhythmia alarm rates using robust heart rate estimation and cost-sensitive support vector machines.

Physiological measurement
To lessen the rate of false critical arrhythmia alarms, we used robust heart rate estimation and cost-sensitive support vector machines. The PhysioNet MIMIC II database and the 2015 PhysioNet/CinC Challenge public database were used as the training d...
