Later, these features are subjected to sequential forward feature selection (SFS) method and selected features are then ranked using seven ranking methods namely, Bhattacharyya distance, entropy, Fuzzy maximum relevancy and minimum redundancy (mRMR), receiver operating characteristic (ROC), Student’s t-test, Wilcoxon and ReliefF. These ranked features are supplied independently into the k-Nearest Neighbor (kNN) classifier. Our proposed system achieved maximum accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of (i) 97.72%, 94.79% and 98.74% for 5s, (ii) 98.34%, 95.49% and 99.14% for 8s and (iii) 98.32%, 95.16% and 99.20% for 10s of ECG segments using only ten features. The integration of the proposed algorithm with ECG acquisition systems in the intensive care units (ICUs) can help the clinicians to decipher the shockable and nonshockable life-threatening arrhythmias accurately. Hence, doctors can use the CPR or AED immediately and increase the chance of survival during shockable life-threatening arrhythmia intervals.]]> Wed 23 Jan 2019 10:40:16 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:33891 four levels of wavelet packet decomposition (WPD) to obtain various coefficients. Using the fourth-level coefficients obtained for each lead ECG signal beat, new 2s. ECG signal beats are reconstructed. Later, the reconstructed signals are split into two-fold data sets, in which one set is used for acquiring common spatial pattern (CSP) filter and the other for obtaining features vector (vice versa). The obtained features are one by one fed into k-nearest neighbors (KNN) classifier for automated classification. The proposed system yielded maximum average classification results of 99.65% accuracy, 99.64% sensitivity and 99.7% specificity using 10 features. Our proposed algorithm is highly efficient and can be used by the clinicians as an aiding system in their CAD diagnosis, thus, assisting in faster treatment and avoiding the progression of CAD condition.]]> Tue 22 Jan 2019 14:22:16 AEDT ]]>
