Abstract

An algorithm for detecting ventricular fibrillation (VF) by the method of support vector machine is presented. The algorithm first extracts the feature of electrocardiogram in every 4s sliding window by the improved time delay method and the parameter d is obtained as feature; the support vector machine method is used to realize the discrimination of VF and non-VF signals. For evaluating the new algorithm, the complete BIH-MIT arrhythmia database and the CU database were used to simulate without any pre-selection. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictability and accuracy were calculated and compared these values with results from an earlier investigation of several different ventricular fibrillation detection algorithms. It shows that the new algorithm has good performance and has greater advantages in real-time execution.
