Islam A. Fouad . Diagnosis of Different Electrocardiographic Signals using Recurrent Neural Network and Power Spectrum Analysis. International Journal of Computer Applications. 183, 48 ( Jan 2022), 27-31. DOI=10.5120/ijca2022921887
Among the leading causes of death that affect people today are heart problems. It is possible to prevent sudden death by early detection and treatment of heart conditions. Electrical signals from the heart are recorded as electrocardiograms (ECGs). Deaths due to heart diseases comprise a great deal of human mortality. Signals obtained from the ECG, which are easily obtained without damaging the patient, can serve as good indicators of the type of disorder occurring while the heart is operating. Five different abnormal signals have been classified in this study: Atrial fibrillation (AFIB), Atrial premature beats (APB), Pacemaker rhythm (PR), Left bundle branch block (LBBB), and Bigeminy. The classification performances have also been evaluated. Signals are analyzed using time-frequency analysis and signal features are determined by spectral entropy. The applied deep learning algorithm is the Long Short-Term Memory "LSTM" network. With a dataset from twenty eight participants composed of five different categories, a trained Network method achieved an overall accuracy of 97.574%. In the automatic diagnosis of multiple ECG abnormalities, the performance evaluations of the suggested technique convey its robustness and reliability.
