  • Title: Support vector machine-based expert system for reliable heartbeat recognition.
    Author: Osowski S, Hoai LT, Markiewicz T.
    Journal: IEEE Trans Biomed Eng; 2004 Apr; 51(4):582-9. PubMed ID: 15072212.
    Abstract:
    This paper presents a new solution to the expert system for reliable heartbeat recognition. The recognition system uses the support vector machine (SVM) working in the classification mode. Two different preprocessing methods for generation of features are applied. One method involves the higher order statistics (HOS) while the second the Hermite characterization of QRS complex of the registered electrocardiogram (ECG) waveform. Combining the SVM network with these preprocessing methods yields two neural classifiers, which have been combined into one final expert system. The combination of classifiers utilizes the least mean square method to optimize the weights of the weighted voting integrating scheme. The results of the performed numerical experiments for the recognition of 13 heart rhythm types on the basis of ECG waveforms confirmed the reliability and advantage of the proposed approach.
