Pulse rhythm

782
Pulse rhythm refers to the pattern of pulsations within specific intervals, offering valuable insights into the regularity or irregularity of the heart's beats as observed through the pattern of pulsation within specific intervals. A regular pulse exhibits a consistent heart rate with uniform waveforms and pulsation force, variations of which can be classified as normal, weak, or bounding.
Conversely, an irregular pulse pattern is termed dysrhythmia, stemming from disruptions in cardiac...

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Cardiology
  • Machine Learning

Background:

  • Phonocardiogram (PCG) signals offer an affordable method for monitoring heart conditions.
  • Accurate classification of PCG signals is crucial for diagnosing various cardiac pathologies.
  • Existing methods may require complex heart sound segmentation, limiting their applicability.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To train and test machine learning classifiers (SVM, k-NN, NN) for binary and multiclass classification of PCG signals.
  • To evaluate classifier performance without relying on heart sound segmentation algorithms.
  • To assess the trade-off between classifier performance and memory occupation for potential implementation in resource-limited systems.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized two Physionet/CinC 2016 datasets comprising 482 (binary) and 826 (multiclass) PCG signals.
  • Pre-processed PCG signals including spike removal, denoising, filtering, and normalization.
  • Extracted features from 5-second frames with a 1-second shift for training and testing SVM, k-NN, and NN classifiers.

Main Results:

  • Binary classification achieved accuracies from 92.4% to 98.7% with memory usage from 92.7 kB to 11.1 MB.
  • Multiclass classification (Normal, CAD, MVP, Benign) yielded accuracies from 95.3% to 98.6% with memory usage from 233 kB to 14.1 MB.
  • Neural Networks (NNs) provided the best performance-memory trade-off; k-NN offered top performance at higher memory cost.
  • Denoising improved signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) by 15-30 dB, minimally impacting classifier performance.

Conclusions:

  • Machine learning classifiers, particularly NNs, can effectively classify PCG signals for heart condition monitoring without segmentation.
  • The developed models demonstrate high accuracy and relatively low memory occupation, suitable for resource-constrained devices.
  • This approach offers a promising, affordable tool for widespread cardiac condition screening and diagnosis.
