Abstract

Computer Aided Diagnosis of Ventricular Arrhythmias from Electrocardiogram Lead II Signals

Highlights

  • The heart is a muscular organ and it is one of the most crucial organs in the entire human body

  • The first available set of standard test dataset for evaluation of arrhythmia database was this MITBIH Arrhythmia Database. It has been used for research purposes in more than five hundred sites around the world since 1980[20].This online database is formed using a set of large number of independent 3s intervals of ECG signals

  • We compare between the Accuracy, Sensitivity, Specificity, and Area Under the Curve (AUC) of the Receiver Operator Characteristic (ROC) curve to declare which of the classifiers are feasible for each type of arrhythmias studied

Summary

Introduction

The heart is a muscular organ and it is one of the most crucial organs in the entire human body. It is responsible for pumping the blood throughout the body. The development of technology for monitoring the status of the heart is of particular importance in medical science [1]. Cardiology is the medical science concerned with abnormalities and diseases of the heart. Cardiac arrhythmia is a group of irregular heartbeat or abnormal heart rhythm. There is a need for a method to study and monitor arrhythmias, this can be done using an Electrocardiogram (ECG)[2]. The establishment of ECG technology began at the start of 20th century by Dutch
