This study introduces an ant colony-inspired clustering method for processing long-term electrocardiogram (ECG) data. The novel approach effectively reduces data volume, highlighting critical cardiac events for specialists.

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare
  • Signal Processing

Background:

  • Long-term electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring generates vast amounts of biomedical data.
  • Efficient preprocessing is crucial for effective analysis of Holter ECG recordings.
  • Existing clustering techniques may not optimally handle the complexity and volume of ECG data.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To apply an ant colony metaheuristic-inspired clustering technique for processing long-term ECG data.
  • To enhance the robustness, stability, and convergence of the proposed clustering method.
  • To evaluate the method's efficacy in reducing data volume for cardiologists.

Main Methods:

  • Development and application of a novel clustering algorithm inspired by ant colony metaheuristics.

  • Incorporation of criteria to improve method robustness, stability, and convergence.
  • Comparative analysis against classical and nature-inspired clustering techniques using benchmark and real-world ECG data (MIT-BIH database).

    • Main Results:

    • The proposed ant colony-inspired clustering method demonstrates superior performance compared to standard techniques.
    • Effective reduction in the volume of processed electrocardiogram data.
    • Successful emphasis of cardiac arrhythmia and significant morphological changes in ECG recordings.

    Conclusions:

    • Ant colony metaheuristic-inspired clustering offers an effective solution for long-term ECG data processing.
    • The method significantly aids cardiologists by visually emphasizing critical cardiac events.
    • While data reduction is effective, final ECG interpretation remains the domain of medical experts.
