This study introduces a fuzzy logic-based expert system for diagnosing heart rhythm disorders using electrocardiogram (ECG) patterns. The system effectively classifies abnormalities by employing generalized modus ponens (GMP) for flexible pattern interpretation.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Artificial Intelligence
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Accurate diagnosis of heart rhythm disorders is crucial for patient outcomes.
  • Electrocardiogram (ECG) interpretation can be complex due to variations in bioelectric signals.
  • Existing rule-based systems may struggle with subtle variations in ECG patterns.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a rule-based expert system for classifying heart rhythm abnormalities.
  • To leverage fuzzy logic and generalized modus ponens (GMP) for enhanced ECG pattern interpretation.
  • To improve the sensitivity of expert systems to fine variations in ECG signals without increasing rulebase size.

Main Methods:

  • Implementation of a rule-based expert system utilizing fuzzy logic.
