MI-CSBO: a hybrid system for myocardial infarction classification using deep learning and Bayesian optimization.

Myocardial Infarction (MI) refers to damage to the heart tissue caused by an inadequate blood supply to the heart muscle due to a sudden blockage in the coronary arteries. This blockage is often a result of the accumulation of fat (cholesterol) forming plaques (atherosclerosis) in the arteries. Over time, these plaques can crack, leading to the formation of a clot (thrombus), which can block the artery and cause a heart attack. Risk factors for a heart attack include smoking, hypertension, diabetes, high cholesterol, metabolic syndrome, and genetic predisposition. Early diagnosis of MI is crucial. Thus, detecting and classifying MI is essential. This paper introduces a new hybrid approach for MI Classification using Spectrogram and Bayesian Optimization (MI-CSBO) for Electrocardiogram (ECG). First, ECG signals from the PTB Database (PTBDB) were converted from the time domain to the frequency domain using the spectrogram method. Then, a deep residual CNN was applied to the test and train datasets of ECG imaging data. The ECG dataset trained using the Deep Residual model was then acquired. Finally, the Bayesian approach, NCA feature selection, and various machine learning algorithms (k-NN, SVM, Tree, Bagged, Naïve Bayes, Ensemble) were used to derive performance measures. The MI-CSBO method achieved a 100% correct diagnosis rate, as detailed in the Experimental Results section.

A novel ECG signal classification method using DEA-ELM.

Electrocardiogram (ECG) signals represent the electrical mobility of the human heart. In recent years, computer-aided systems have helped to cardiologists in the detection, classification and diagnosis of ECG. The aim of this paper is to optimize the number hidden neurons of the traditional Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) using Differential Evolution Algorithm (DEA) and contribute to the classification of ECG signals with a higher accuracy rate. In this paper, publicly ECG records in Physionet was utilized. Pan-Tompkins technique (PTT) and Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) approaches were implemented to obtain characteristic properties which are PR period, QT period, ST period and QRS wave of ECG signals. Then, ELM was executed to the ECG samples. Lastly, DEA on software ELM was developed for the assign of the number of hidden neurons, which were used in the ELM algorithm. The performance criterions were used in order to compare the performance of the classification exerted. Concordantly, it was realized that the highest classification achievement values were reached to Accuracy 97.5% and values 93 of number of hidden neurons, with the practice improved with the DEA compared to conventional ELM.
