Deep learning models achieved high accuracy in classifying arrhythmia from ECG data, with CNN + LSTM reaching 99.3%, CNN + LSTM + Attention reaching 99.29%, and CNN reaching 99.12%.
Do deep learning models accurately classify arrhythmias using ECG data?
Deep learning models, particularly the CNN + LSTM architecture, can classify arrhythmias from standard ECG databases with very high accuracy (>99%).
Absolute Event Rate: 99.3% vs 99.12%
The electrocardiogram (ECG) is one of the most widely used diagnostic instruments in medicine and healthcare. Deep learning methods have shown promise in healthcare prediction challenges involving ECG data. This paper aims to apply deep learning techniques on the publicly available dataset to classify arrhythmia. We have used two kinds of the dataset in our research paper. One dataset is the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database, with a sampling frequency of 125 Hz with 1,09,446 ECG beats. The classes included in this first dataset are N, S, V, F, and Q. The second database is PTB Diagnostic ECG Database. The second database has two classes. The techniques used in these two datasets are the CNN model, CNN + LSTM, and CNN + LSTM + Attention Model. 80% of the data is used for the training, and the remaining 20% is used for testing. The result achieved by using these three techniques shows the accuracy of 99.12% for the CNN model, 99.3% for CNN + LSTM, and 99.29% for CNN + LSTM + Attention Model.
Ullah et al. (Fri,) conducted a other in Arrhythmia. Deep learning models (CNN, CNN + LSTM, CNN + LSTM + Attention) was evaluated on Classification accuracy. Deep learning models achieved high accuracy in classifying arrhythmia from ECG data, with CNN + LSTM reaching 99.3%, CNN + LSTM + Attention reaching 99.29%, and CNN reaching 99.12%.
