Myocardial Infarction Classification by Morphological Feature Extraction from Big 12-Lead ECG Data
[[abstract]]Rapid and accurate diagnosis of patients with acute myocardial infarction is vital. The ST segment in Electrocardiography (ECG) represents the change of electric potential during the period from the end of ventricular depolarization to the beginning of repolarization and plays an important role in the detection of myocardial infarction. However, ECG monitoring generates big volumes of data and the underlying complexity must be extracted by a combination of methods. This study combines the advantages of polynomial approximation and principal component analysis. The proposed approach is stable for the 12-lead ECG data collected from the PTB database and achieves an accuracy of 98.07%.[[notice]]補正完畢[[incitationindex]]EI[[conferencetype]]國際[[conferencedate]]20140513~20140516[[booktype]]電子版[[iscallforpapers]]Y[[conferencelocation]]Tainan, Taiwa
Computer Aided ECG Analysis - State of the Art and Upcoming Challenges
In this paper we present current achievements in computer aided ECG analysis
and their applicability in real world medical diagnosis process. Most of the
current work is covering problems of removing noise, detecting heartbeats and
rhythm-based analysis. There are some advancements in particular ECG segments
detection and beat classifications but with limited evaluations and without
clinical approvals. This paper presents state of the art advancements in those
areas till present day. Besides this short computer science and signal
processing literature review, paper covers future challenges regarding the ECG
signal morphology analysis deriving from the medical literature review. Paper
is concluded with identified gaps in current advancements and testing, upcoming
challenges for future research and a bullseye test is suggested for morphology
analysis evaluation.Comment: 7 pages, 3 figures, IEEE EUROCON 2013 International conference on

Application of artificial intelligence techniques for automated detection of myocardial infarction: A review
Myocardial infarction (MI) results in heart muscle injury due to receiving
insufficient blood flow. MI is the most common cause of mortality in
middle-aged and elderly individuals around the world. To diagnose MI,
clinicians need to interpret electrocardiography (ECG) signals, which requires
expertise and is subject to observer bias. Artificial intelligence-based
methods can be utilized to screen for or diagnose MI automatically using ECG
signals. In this work, we conducted a comprehensive assessment of artificial
intelligence-based approaches for MI detection based on ECG as well as other
biophysical signals, including machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL)
models. The performance of traditional ML methods relies on handcrafted
features and manual selection of ECG signals, whereas DL models can automate
these tasks. The review observed that deep convolutional neural networks
(DCNNs) yielded excellent classification performance for MI diagnosis, which
explains why they have become prevalent in recent years. To our knowledge, this
is the first comprehensive survey of artificial intelligence techniques
employed for MI diagnosis using ECG and other biophysical signals.Comment: 16 pages, 8 figure
Algorithms for automated diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases based on ECG data: A comprehensive systematic review
The prevalence of cardiovascular diseases is increasing around the world. However, the technology is evolving and can be monitored with low-cost sensors anywhere at any time. This subject is being researched, and different methods can automatically identify these diseases, helping patients and healthcare professionals with the treatments. This paper presents a systematic review of disease identification, classification, and recognition with ECG sensors. The review was focused on studies published between 2017 and 2022 in different scientific databases, including PubMed Central, Springer, Elsevier, Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), IEEE Xplore, and Frontiers. It results in the quantitative and qualitative analysis of 103 scientific papers. The study demonstrated that different datasets are available online with data related to various diseases. Several ML/DP-based models were identified in the research, where Convolutional Neural Network and Support Vector Machine were the most applied algorithms. This review can allow us to identify the techniques that can be used in a system that promotes the patient’s autonomy.N/
Automated ECG Analysis for Localizing Thrombus in Culprit Artery Using Rule Based Information Fuzzy Network
Cardio-vascular diseases are one of the foremost causes of mortality in today’s world. The prognosis for cardiovascular diseases is usually done by ECG signal, which is a simple 12-lead Electrocardiogram (ECG) that gives complete information about the function of the heart including the amplitude and time interval of P-QRST-U segment. This article recommends a novel approach to identify the location of thrombus in culprit artery using the Information Fuzzy Network (IFN). Information Fuzzy Network, being a supervised machine learning technique, takes known evidences based on rules to create a predicted classification model with thrombus location obtained from the vast input ECG data. These rules are well-defined procedures for selecting hypothesis that best fits a set of observations. Results illustrate that the recommended approach yields an accurateness of 92.30%. This novel approach is shown to be a viable ECG analysis approach for identifying the culprit artery and thus localizing the thrombus
Deep Learning in Cardiology
The medical field is creating large amount of data that physicians are unable
to decipher and use efficiently. Moreover, rule-based expert systems are
inefficient in solving complicated medical tasks or for creating insights using
big data. Deep learning has emerged as a more accurate and effective technology
in a wide range of medical problems such as diagnosis, prediction and
intervention. Deep learning is a representation learning method that consists
of layers that transform the data non-linearly, thus, revealing hierarchical
relationships and structures. In this review we survey deep learning
application papers that use structured data, signal and imaging modalities from
cardiology. We discuss the advantages and limitations of applying deep learning
in cardiology that also apply in medicine in general, while proposing certain
directions as the most viable for clinical use.Comment: 27 pages, 2 figures, 10 table
A Multitier Deep Learning Model for Arrhythmia Detection
Electrocardiograph (ECG) is employed as a primary tool for diagnosing cardiovascular diseases (CVD) in the hospital, which often helps in the early detection of such ailments. ECG signals provide a framework to probe the underlying properties and enhance the initial diagnosis obtained via traditional tools and patient-doctor dialogues. It provides cardiologists with inferences regarding more serious cases. Notwithstanding its proven utility, deciphering large datasets to determine appropriate information remains a challenge in ECG-based CVD diagnosis and treatment. Our study presents a deep neural network (DNN) strategy to ameliorate the aforementioned difficulties. Our strategy consists of a learning stage where classification accuracy is improved via a robust feature extraction. This is followed using a genetic algorithm (GA) process to aggregate the best combination of feature extraction and classification. The MIT-BIH Arrhythmia was employed in the validation to identify five arrhythmia categories based on the association for the advancement of medical instrumentation (AAMI) standard. The performance of the proposed technique alongside state-of-the-art in the area shows an increase of 0.94 and 0.953 in terms of average accuracy and F1 score, respectively. The proposed model could serve as an analytic module to alert users and/or medical experts when anomalies are detected in the acquired ECG data in a smart healthcare framework
Automated myocardial infarction diagnosis from ECG
In the present dissertation, an automated neural network-based ECG diagnosing system was designed to detect the presence of myocardial infarction based on the hypothesis that an artificial neural network-based ECG interpretation system may improve the clinical myocardial infarction. 137 patients were included. Among them 122 had myocardial infarction, but the remaining 15 were normal. The sensitivity and the specificity of present system were 92.2% and 50.7% respectively. The sensitivity was consistent with relevant research. The relatively low specificity results from the rippling of the low pass filtering. We can conclude that neural network-based system is a promising aid for the myocardial infarction diagnosis
