A novel enhanced lemurs optimization-based hybrid attention network for classifying arrthymia from ECG signal using optimal weighted feature

Abstract

ABSTRACT An arrhythmia is just a disease associated with irregular heart rhythm. Any kind of arrhythmia can be determined with an ECG test. However, this requires long and excellent-quality of ECG samples. This makes an affordable, reliable, and automated system for recognizing and diagnosing arrhythmias. To meet the aforementioned criteria, a new technique with the aid of an attention-aided deep learning approach is proposed to classify arrhythmia in this paper. “Higher-order statistical (HOS)” features are extracted from the original EEG signal and the deep features are obtained from the analyzed QRS complex signals and RR interval by means of a “One-Dimensional Convolution Neural Network (1DCNN)”. The Risk Rate Enhanced Lemurs Optimization Algorithm (RRE-LOA) is utilized to modify the weight, and the extracted features are selected optimally before carrying out the feature selection followed by feature concatenation with weight fusion in order to generate the Weighted Fused Features (WFF). A range of indicators is used to compare the performance of the executed classification model with the traditional models. The results demonstrate that the proposed methodology for classifying arrhythmias offers an enhanced performance while classifying the arrhythmia thus aiding in faster treatment of the arrhythmia disease.
