To explore a method to predict ECG signals in body area networks (BANs), we propose a hybrid prediction method for ECG signals in this paper. The proposed method combines variational mode decomposition (VMD), phase space reconstruction (PSR), and a radial basis function (RBF) neural network to predict an ECG signal. To reduce the nonstationarity and randomness of the ECG signal, we use VMD to decompose the ECG signal into several intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) with finite bandwidth, which is helpful to improve the prediction accuracy. The input parameters of the RBF neural network affect the prediction accuracy and computational burden. We employ PSR to optimize input parameters of the RBF neural network. To evaluate the prediction performance of the proposed method, we carry out many simulation experiments on ECG data from the MIT-BIH Arrhythmia Database. The experimental results show that the root mean square error (RMSE) and mean absolute error (MAE) of the proposed method are of 10-3 magnitude, while the RMSE and MAE of some competitive prediction methods are of 10-2 magnitude. Compared with other several prediction methods, our method obviously improves the prediction accuracy of ECG signals.

Abstract Background: It is significant for doctors and body area networks (BANs) to predict ECG signals accurately. At present, the prediction accuracy of many existing ECG prediction methods is generally low. In order to improve the prediction accuracy of ECG signals in BANs, a hybrid prediction method of ECG signals is proposed in this paper. Methods: The proposed prediction method combines variational mode decomposition (VMD), phase space reconstruction (PSR), and a radial basis function (RBF) neural network. First, the embedding dimension and delay time of PSR are calculated according to the trained set of ECG data. Second, the ECG data are decomposed into several intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). Third, the phase space of each IMF is reconstructed according to the embedding dimension and the delay time. Fourth, an RBF neural network is established and each IMF is predicted by the network. Finally, the prediction results of all IMFs are added to realize the final prediction result. Results: To evaluate the prediction performance of the proposed method, simulation experiments are carried out on ECG data from the MIT-BIH Arrhythmia Database. The experimental results show that the prediction index RMSE (root mean square error) of the proposed method is only 10-3 magnitude and that of some traditional prediction methods is 10-2 magnitude.Conclusions: Compared with some traditional prediction methods, the proposed method improves the prediction accuracy of ECG signals obviously.

Abstract Background: In body area network (BAN), accurate prediction of ECG signal can not only let doctors know the patient's condition in advance, but also help to reduce the energy consumption of sensors. In order to improve the accuracy of ECG signal prediction, this paper proposes a deep learning method for ECG signal prediction. Methods: The proposed prediction method combines variational mode decomposition (VMD), Cao method and a long short-term memory (LSTM) neural network. In the method, VMD decomposes ECG data into a series of intrinsic mode functions (IMFs), which reduces the non-stationary character of ECG signals and helps to improve the prediction accuracy. Cao method is used to determine the input dimension of LSTM input layer, namely, the minimum embedding dimension of each IMF is the input dimension of LSTM input layer. Each IMF is predicted by a LSTM neural network which adopts Adam optimizer. All IMFs predictions are aggregated to get the final prediction result. Results: To evaluate the prediction accuracy of the proposed method, simulation experiments are carried out on ECG data from the MIT-BIH Arrhythmia Database. Experimental results show that the RMSE (root mean square error) and MAE (mean absolute error) of the proposed model are 0.001326 and 0.001044 respectively, which are more than 10 percent lower than the traditional prediction methods.Conclusions: Compared with some traditional prediction methods, the proposed prediction method improves the prediction accuracy obviously.

Classification of Electrocardiogram (ECG) signals plays a significant role in the identification of the functioning of the heart. This work pertains with the ECG signals, where the classifier is developed for identification of normal or abnormal conditions of the heart. The raw ECG signals are collected from an online database (www.physioNet.org) for classification. The raw ECG signal is pre-processed for noise removal, and the frequency spectrum is analysed to compare raw and denoised ECG signal. Attributes (P, Q, R, S, T time intervals) from denoised ECG signal is analysed and classified using Convolution Neural Network (CNN). The paper reports a classification technique to differentiate ECG signals from the MIT-BIH database (arrhythmia database, arrhythmia p-wave annotations, atrial fibrillation). The CNN analyses the deviation between nominal ranges of attributes (amplitude and time interval) and classifies between the abnormality and normal ECG wave. This work provides a simple method for interpreting ECG related condition for the clinician and helps medical practitioners to make diagnostic decisions.

In this thesis, we propose and implement a new hybrid approach using fractal analysis, statistical analysis and neural network computation to build a model for prediction the number of ischemia occurrence based on ECG recordings. The main advantage of the proposed approach over similar earlier related works is that first useful parameters from fractal analysis of the signal are extracted to build a model that includes both clinical characteristics and signal attributes. Statistical analysis such as binary logistic regression and multivariate linear regression are then used to further explore the relation of parameters in order to obtain a more accurate model. We show that the results compare well with those of earlier work and clearly indicate that the augmentation of the above mentioned approaches improves the prediction accuracy.

Although fingerprint-based systems are the commonly used biometric systems, they suffer from a critical vulnerability to a presentation attack (PA). Therefore, several approaches based on a fingerprint biometrics have been developed to increase the robustness against a PA. We propose an alternative approach based on the combination of fingerprint and electrocardiogram (ECG) signals. An ECG signal has advantageous characteristics that prevent the replication. Combining a fingerprint with an ECG signal is a potentially interesting solution to reduce the impact of PAs in biometric systems. We also propose a novel end-to-end deep learning-based fusion neural architecture between a fingerprint and an ECG signal to improve PA detection in fingerprint biometrics. Our model uses state-of-the-art EfficientNets for generating a fingerprint feature representation. For the ECG, we investigate three different architectures based on fully-connected layers (FC), a 1D-convolutional neural network (1D-CNN), and a 2D-convolutional neural network (2D-CNN). The 2D-CNN converts the ECG signals into an image and uses inverted Mobilenet-v2 layers for feature generation. We evaluated the method on a multimodal dataset, that is, a customized fusion of the LivDet 2015 fingerprint dataset and ECG data from real subjects. Experimental results reveal that this architecture yields a better average classification accuracy compared to a single fingerprint modality.

Concerning the prediction problems’accuracy of the state-of-charge(SOC) of the battery,this paper proposes a prediction method based on an improved genetic algorithm-radial basis function neural network for power battery charged state. The prediction method, based on intensity of information interaction and neural activity, adjusts the size of the neural network online and solves the problem that radial basis function neural network structure adjustment influences the accuracy of charged state prediction. The simulation results show that,compared with the method of radial basis function neural network based on genetic algorithm , the accuracy of charged state prediction is more stable and more precise.

This paper presents an adaptive ECG enhancement procedure based on Synchrosqueezing Transform (SST) to eliminate Powerline interference (PLI) from ECG signal. This work also incorporates the principles of modified discrete cosine transform (MDCT) and wiener filter. PLI is a major source of artifacts in the ECG signal which can affect its interpretation. Separating PLI from ECG signal poses a great challenge in the ECG analysis. The existing PLI removal techniques suffer from two major drawbacks such as Mode Mixing, inability to deal with non-stationary characteristics of signal. In this paper, we propose SST based wiener filtering approaches which can overcome the limitation of existing PLI suppression techniques. The proposed approaches undergo three stages of operation: mode decomposition, mode determination and peak restoration to filter out PLI from ECG recording. The mode decomposition uses SST to decompose the corrupted ECG signal into a sum of well separated intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). The objective is to filter out PLI from these IMFs. To do so, mode determination step which is based on Kurtosis and Crest factor is applied to categorize decomposition result into groups such as signal mode and noisy mode. Direct subtraction of the noisy mode from the corrupted ECG observation results in ECG signal with reduced peak since noise mode carries part of signal components in addition to interference. Hence, to restore the peak, wiener filter is applied on noisy mode to estimate actual PLI component. Finally, Noise free ECG signal is reconstructed by subtracting estimated PLI from the corrupted ECG signal. This paper discusses four possible PLI suppression methods which are derived by combining SST domain with wiener filter in various ways. Simulations are carried out to test the effectiveness of proposed methods. It is evident from the simulation results that the proposed methods can remove PLI of 50 Hz and its harmonics. The proposed techniques effectively removed PLI in both real and artificial ECG signals and to test its performance they are compared with state of the art methods. The SST based filtering methods outperformed other methods under the condition of PLI frequency variations. The experimental results also suggest that the SST based wiener filtering with modified reference approach offers better PLI suppression than all other methods.
