Objectives: To extract the features of single arrhythmia ECG beat. To develop efficient algorithms for automated detection of arrhythmia based on ECG. Methods/Statistical analysis: The methodology includes pre-processing and segmentation of ECG. Extraction of ECG features are to support the ECG beat classification and analysis of cardiac abnormalities using machine learning techniques. Wavelet decomposition is considered for feature extraction and classification with multiclass support vector machine. Findings: This work evaluates the suitability of the wavelet features of ECG for classifier. The proposed arrhythmia classifier results in an accuracy up to 98% for various classes of arrhythmia considered in this work. Novelty/Applications: This work is an assistive tool for medical practitioners to examine ECG in a limited time with their expertise to make the accurate abnormality diagnosis of the arrhythmia.
Keywords: Arrhythmia; classification; feature extraction; support vector machine; wavelet decomposition
