Key result
An attention-driven hybrid CNN-Bi-LSTM model with SMOTE outperformed standard models, achieving a classification accuracy of more than 97% on heart sound datasets.
Why the study?
Heart disease is a primary cause of global mortality, but classifying heart sounds is difficult due to complex acoustic properties, temporal and frequency variability, and imbalanced datasets.
A novel attention-driven hybrid deep neural network (CNN-Bi-LSTM) with SMOTE achieved over 97% accuracy in classifying heart sounds, offering a reliable initial evaluation tool for cardiovascular disease diagnosis.
May enhance heart sound classification on imbalanced data; leaves open prospective clinical validation.
Heart disease continues to be a primary cause of mortality globally, highlighting the critical necessity for efficient early prediction and classification techniques. This study presents a new hybrid model attention‐based CNN‐Bi‐LSTM that integrates the SMOTE with an attention‐driven improved convolutional neural network‐recurrent neural network architecture to improve the classification of heart sounds, especially from imbalanced datasets. Heart sounds are difficult to classify because of their complex acoustic properties and the variability of their characteristics across frequency and temporal domains. The proposed model utilises an advanced CNN to effectively extract global and local features, in conjunction with a bidirectional long short‐term memory network to improve the architecture by capturing contextual information from both preceding and subsequent time sequences. The incorporation of spatial attention within the CNN and temporal attention in the RNN enables the model to concentrate on the most pertinent audio segments. To address the challenges presented by imbalanced and noisy datasets that may impede the efficacy of deep learning algorithms, our model employs SMOTE to improve data representation. The hybrid model outperformed popular models such as CNN, LSTM and CNN‐LSTM, achieving a classification accuracy of more than 97% on the PCG and PASCAL heart sound datasets. The findings demonstrate the model's reliability as an initial evaluation tool in clinical settings, thereby improving support for cardiovascular disease diagnosis.
