Cardiovascular disease is one of the major health concerns, posing a significant threat to human well-being. Modern diagnostic techniques often rely on electronic devices for assistance. Electrocardiograms (ECG) contain abundant information and serve as a powerful tool in diagnosing cardiovascular diseases. Hence, the vital task of monitoring and categorizing ECG signals is pivotal in averting and identifying cardiovascular ailments. In many hospitals, ECG signal classification often depends on experienced doctors, consuming substantial time and potentially missing the optimal window for disease treatment. This paper presents a methodology utilizing the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database, employing deep neural networks, a 10-layer one-dimensional convolutional neural network, to fulfill the function of ECG signal classification. The model under consideration attains a comprehensive accuracy rate of 99.43% on the test dataset, accompanied by sensitivity (97.86%) and specificity (99.64%). These values surpass other methods mentioned in this paper by 1% to 3%. The experimental findings presented indicate the proposed method holds valuable implications for the future realization of intelligent automated ECG signal classification systems.
