Abstract:
Electrocardiography (ECG) signals contain important markers for Coronary Heart Disease (CHD). State of the art systems and methods rely on clinically available multi-lead ECG for CHD classification which is not cost effective. Moreover the state of the art methods are applied on digital ECG time series data only. Also, discriminative HRV markers are not often present in short ECG recordings necessitating long hours of ECG data to analyze. In accordance with the present disclosure, systems and methods described hereinafter extract ECG time series from ECG images obtained from commercially available low-cost single lead ECG devices through a combination of image and signal processing steps including Histogram analysis, Morphological operation-thinning, Extraction of lines, Extraction of Reference Pulse, Extraction of ECG and interpolating missing data. Further, domain independent statistical features such as self-similarity of raw ECG time series and average Maharaj's distance along with domain specific features are used for classifying CHD.

Further the high inference that provide useful and actionable for longitudinal tracking, prediction and anomaly detection is performed based on several longitudinal analysis techniques that include welch analysis, cross-spectrum analysis, Feature of interest (FOI) identification and time-series clustering, autocorrelation-based distance estimation and exponential smoothing, seasonal and non-seasonal models identification, ARIMA modelling, Hidden Markov models, Long short term memory (LSTM) along with low level inference, human meta-data and application domain knowledge. Further the unified human behaviour inference can be obtained across multiple domains that include health, retail and transportation.
Abstract:
Current technologies analyze electrocardiogram (ECG) signals for a long duration, which is not always a practical scenario. Moreover the current scenarios perform a binary classification between normal and Atrial Fibrillation (AF) only, whereas there are many abnormal rhythms apart from AF. Conventional systems/methods have their own limitations and may tend to misclassify ECG signals, thereby resulting in an unbalanced multi-label classification problem. Embodiments of the present disclosure provide systems and methods that are robust and more efficient for classifying rhythms for example, normal, AF, other abnormal rhythms and noisy ECG recordings by implementing a spectrogram based noise removal that obtains clean ECG signal from an acquired single-lead ECG signal, an optimum feature selection at each layer of classification that selects optimum features from a pool of extracted features, and a multi-layer cascaded binary classifier that identifies rhythms in the clean ECG signal at each layer of the classifier.
Abstract:
This disclosure relates generally to physiological monitoring, and more particularly to feature set optimization for classification of physiological signal. In one embodiment, a method for physiological monitoring includes identifying clean physiological signal training set from an input physiological signal based on a Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) of segments associated with the physiological signal. An optimal features set is extracted from a clean physiological signal training set based on a Maximum Consistency and Maximum Dominance (MCMD) property associated with the optimal feature set that strictly optimizes on the objective function, the conditional likelihood maximization over different selection criteria such that diverse properties of different selection parameters are captured and achieves Pareto-optimality. The input physiological signal is classified into normal signal components and abnormal signal components using the optimal features set.

The system may select at least one outlier detection method associated with an outlier class for detecting outliers in the sensor data. The system may determine information content of the sensor data based on the outliers, the signal dynamics, the statistical features, and information theoretic features, and similarity or dissimilarity measure.
