Cardiovascular disease is one of the diseases threatening the human health, and its diagnosis has always been a research hotspot in the medical field. In particular, the diagnosis technology based on ECG (electrocardiogram) signal as an effective method for studying cardiovascular diseases has attracted many scholars? attention. In this paper, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is used to study the feature classification of three kinds of ECG signals, which including sinus rhythm (SR), Ventricular Tachycardia (VT) and Ventricular Fibrillation (VF). Specifically, different convolution layer structures and different time intervals are used for ECG signal classification, such as the division of 2-layer and 4-layer convolution layers, the setting of four time periods (1s, 2s, 3s, 10s), etc. by performing the above classification conditions, the best classification results are obtained. The contribution of this paper is mainly in two aspects. On the one hand, the convolution neural network is used to classify the arrhythmia data, and different classification effects are obtained by setting different convolution layers. On the other hand, according to the data characteristics of three kinds of ECG signals, different time periods are designed to optimize the classification performance. The research results provide a reference for the classification of ECG signals and contribute to the research of cardiovascular diseases.

Online feedback is an effective way of communication between government departments and citizens. However, the daily high number of public feedbacks has increased the burden on government administrators. The deep learning method is good at automatically analyzing and extracting deep features of data, and then improving the accuracy of classification prediction. In this study, we aim to use the text classification model to achieve the automatic classification of public feedbacks to reduce the work pressure of administrator. In particular, a convolutional neural network model combined with word embedding and optimized by differential evolution algorithm is adopted. At the same time, we compared it with seven common text classification models, and the results show that the model we explored has good classification performance under different evaluation metrics, including accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score.

The incidence of cardiovascular disease is increasing year by year and is showing a younger trend. At the same time, existing medical resources are tight. The automatic detection of ECG signals becomes increasingly necessary. This paper proposes an automatic classification of ECG signals based on a dilated causal convolutional neural network. To solve the problem that the recurrent neural network framework network cannot be accelerated by hardware equipment, the dilated causal convolutional neural network is adopted. Given the features of the same input and output time steps of the recurrent neural network and the nondisclosure of future information, the network is constructed with fully convolutional networks and causal convolution. To reduce the network depth and prevent gradient explosion or gradient disappearance, the dilated factor is introduced into the model, and the residual blocks are introduced into the model according to the shortcut connection idea. The effectiveness of the algorithm is verified in the MIT-BIH Atrial Fibrillation Database (MIT-BIH AFDB). In the experiment of the MIT-BIH AFDB database, the classification accuracy rate is 98.65%.

Abstract Delayed diagnosis of atrial fibrillation (AF) and congestive heart failure (CHF) can lead to death. Early diagnosis of these cardiac conditions is possible by manually analyzing electrocardiogram (ECG) signals. However, manual diagnosis is complex, owing to the various characteristics of ECG signals. Several studies have reported promising results using the automatic classification of ECG signals. The performance accuracy needs to be improved considering that an accurate classification system of AF and CHF has the potential to save a patient’s life. An optimal ECG signal classification system for AF and CHF has been proposed in this study using a one-dimensional convolutional neural network (1-D CNN) to improve the performance. A total of 150 datasets of ECG signals were modeled using the1-D CNN. The proposed 1-D CNN algorithm, provided precision values, recall, f1-score, accuracy of 100%, and successfully classified raw data of ECG signals into three conditions, which are normal sinus rhythm (NSR), AF, and CHF. The results showed that the proposed method outperformed the previous methods. This approach can be considered as an adjunct for medical personnel to diagnose AF, CHF, and NSR.


In this chapter, the proposed optimization algorithm, kinetic gas molecule optimization (KGMO), that is based on swarm behaviour of gas molecules is applied to train a feedforward neural network for classification of ECG signals. Five types of ECG signals are used in this work including normal, supraventricular, brunch bundle block, anterior myocardial infarction (Anterior MI), and interior myocardial infarction (Interior MI). The classification performance of the proposed KGMO neural network (KGMONN) was evaluated on the Physiobank database and compared against conventional algorithms.

The classification of electrocardiograms (ECG) plays an important role in the clinical diagnosis of heart disease. This paper proposes an effective system development and implementation for ECG classification based on faster regions with a convolutional neural network (Faster R-CNN) algorithm. The original one-dimensional ECG signals contain the preprocessed patient ECG signals and some ECG recordings from the MIT-BIH database in this experiment. Each ECG beat of one-dimensional ECG signals was transformed into a two-dimensional image for experimental training sets and test sets. As a result, we classified the ECG beats into five categories with an average accuracy of 99.21%. In addition, we did a comparative experiment using the one versus rest support vector machine (OVR SVM) algorithm, and the classification accuracy of the proposed Faster R-CNN was shown to be 2.59% higher.

Objective: To analyse the automatic classification performance of a convolutional neural network (CNN), Google Inception v3, using tomographic images of odontogenic keratocysts (OKCs) and ameloblastomas (AMs). Methods: For construction of the database, we selected axial multidetector CT images from patients with confirmed AM (n = 22) and OKC (n = 18) based on a conclusive histopathological report. The images (n = 350) were segmented manually and data augmentation algorithms were applied, totalling 2500 images. The k-fold × five cross-validation method (k = 2) was used to estimate the accuracy of the CNN model. Results: The accuracy and standard deviation (%) of cross-validation for the five iterations performed were 90.16 ± 0.95, 91.37 ± 0.57, 91.62 ± 0.19, 92.48 ± 0.16 and 91.21 ± 0.87, respectively. A higher error rate was observed for the classification of AM images. Conclusion: This study demonstrated a high classification accuracy of Google Inception v3 for tomographic images of OKCs and AMs. However, AMs images presented the higher error rate.

In this paper, we propose a deep learning convolutional neural network (CNN) approach to classify arrhythmia based on the time interval of the QRS complex of the ECG signal. The ECG signal was denoised using multiple filters based on the Pan Tompkins algorithm. QRS detection has been done using Pan Tompkins Algorithm. Then the QRS complex is identified using local peaks based technique inside the layers of the Convolutional Neural Network where the repeated application of the same filter to our input results in a map of activations called a feature map, indicating the locations and strength of a detected feature in an input which in our case is the changes in the q-s time interval. Based on the R-R time interval, Heart rate variability (HRV) was computed, and Poincare plot was generated. Instead of using raw ECG signal to train the CNN, we used the feature extracted from ECG signal obtained from Physionet database to train the CNN and map the pattern changes for different classes of diseases. The classifier was then used to classify the test input as either or normal, tachyarrhythmia or intracardiac atrial fibrillation. Data acquisition, ECG data pre-processing and CNN classifier are the several methods that are involved for the classification of several arrhythmias.
