Abstract
We propose an automatic system for the classification of coronary artery disease (CAD) based on entropy measures of MCG recordings. Ten patients with coronary artery narrowing≥or≤50% were categorized by a multilayer perceptron (MLP) neural network based on Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA). Best results were obtained with MCG at rest: 99% sensitivity, 97% specificity, 98% accuracy, 96% and 99% positive and negative predictive values for single heartbeats. At patient level, these results correspond to a correct classification of all patients. The classifier's suitability to detect CAD-induced changes on the MCG at rest was validated with surrogate data.
