This study introduces a novel method for classifying cardiac beats as ischemic or not using a genetic algorithm to optimize parameters. The approach achieves 91% accuracy in detecting myocardial ischemic episodes from electrocardiographic signals.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Machine Learning

Background:

  • Accurate classification of cardiac beats is crucial for detecting myocardial ischemic episodes in electrocardiographic (ECG) signals.
  • Existing methods face challenges in parameter determination for criteria like ST segment and T wave changes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a multicriteria sorting method for classifying cardiac beats as ischemic or non-ischemic.
  • To utilize a genetic algorithm for automatic optimization of classification parameters, overcoming manual threshold and weight determination difficulties.

Main Methods:

  • A supervised learning approach comparing cardiac beats to preclassified prototypes based on five criteria (ST segment, T wave, age).
  • Implementation of a genetic algorithm to automatically determine optimal thresholds and weight values for the classification criteria.

  • Development of a cardiac beat database using data from the European Society of Cardiology ST-T database for training and testing.

    • Main Results:

    • The proposed multicriteria sorting method achieved 91% sensitivity and 91% specificity in classifying cardiac beats.
    • Performance favorably compares to other existing beat classification approaches in the literature.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed genetic algorithm-optimized multicriteria method provides an effective and automated solution for cardiac beat classification.
    • This approach demonstrates significant potential for improving the detection of myocardial ischemic episodes using ECG signals.
