A restricted Boltzmann machine based two-lead electrocardiography classification

摘要

An restricted Boltzmann machine learning algorithm were proposed in the two-lead heart beat classification problem. ECG classification is a complex pattern recognition problem. The unsupervised learning algorithm of restricted Boltzmann machine is ideal in mining the massive unlabelled ECG wave beats collected in the heart healthcare monitoring applications. A restricted Boltzmann machine (RBM) is a generative stochastic artificial neural network that can learn a probability distribution over its set of inputs. In this paper a deep belief network was constructed and the RBM based algorithm was used in the classification problem. Under the recommended twelve classes by the ANSI/AAMI EC57: 1998/(R)2008 standard as the waveform labels, the algorithm was evaluated on the two-lead ECG dataset of MIT-BIH and gets the performance with accuracy of 98.829%. The proposed algorithm performed well in the two-lead ECG classification problem, which could be generalized to multi-lead unsupervised ECG classification or detection problems.
