According to estimations made by World Health Organization, heart disease is the largest cause of mortality throughout the globe, and it is safe to assume that diagnosing heart diseases in their earliest stages is very essential. Diagnosis of cardiovascular disease may be carried out by detection of interference in cardiac signals, one of which is called phonocardiography, and it can be accomplished in a number of various ways. Using phonocardiogram (PCG) inputs and deep learning, the researchers aim to develop a classification system for different types of heart illness. The slicing and normalization of the signal served as the first step in the study's signal preprocessing, which was subsequently followed by a wavelet based transformation method that employs mother wavelet analytic morlet. The results of the decomposition are first shown with the use of a scalogram, afterwards, they are utilized as input for the deep CNN. In this investigation, the analyzed PCG signals were separated into categories, denoting normal and pathological heart sounds. The entire utilized data was divided into two categories as training and test data as 80% to 20%. The developed model demonstrates the degree of clinical diagnosis, sensitivity, specificity and AUC-ROC value.As a result, it has been determined that the proposed method was superior to the mother wavelet as well as other classifier approaches. Consequently, we were able to acquire an electronic stethoscope that has a diagnostic accuracy of more than 90% when it comes to identifying cardiac problems. To be more specific, the proposed deep CNN model has an accuracy of 93.25% in identifying aberrant heart sounds and 93.50% in identifying regular heartbeats. In addition, given the fact that an examination may be completed in only 15 seconds, speed is the primary advantage offered by the suggested stethoscope.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
