Does heart sound signal denoising using db6 wavelet and bispectrum estimation via ARMA model improve the non-invasive diagnosis of coronary heart disease?
Wavelet denoising combined with bispectrum estimation of heart sound signals offers a potential non-invasive method to detect coronary heart disease.
The heart sound is the characteristic signal of cardiovascular health status. The objective of this project is to explore the correlation between Wavelet Transform and noise performance of heart sound and the adaptability of classifying heart sound using bispectrum estimation. Since the wavelet has multi-scale and multi-resolution characteristics, in this paper, the heart sound signal with different frequency ranges is decomposed through wavelet and displayed on different scales of the resolving wavelet result. According to distribution features of frequency of heart sound signals, the interference components in heart sound signal can be eliminated by selecting reconstruction coefficients. Comparing de-noising effects of four wavelets which are haar, db6, sym8 and coif6, the db6 wavelet has achieved an optimal denoising effect to heart sound signals. The de-noising result of contrasting different layers in the db6 wavelet shows that decomposing with five layers in db6 provide the optimal performance. In practice, the db6 wavelet also shows commendable denoising effects when applying to 51 clinical heart signals. Furthermore, through the clinic analyses of 29 normal signals from healthy people and 22 abnormal heart signals from coronary heart disease patients, this method can fairly distinguish abnormal signals from normal signals by applying bispectrum estimation to denoised signals via ARMA coefficients model.
