In this paper, we investigate how to incorporate intelligence into the human-centric IoT edges to detect arrhythmia, a heart condition often associated with morbidity and even mortality. We propose a classification algorithm based on the intrapatient convolutional neural network model and the interpatient attention residual network model to automatically identify the type of arrhythmia in the edges. As the imbalance categories in the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database which needs to be used in the algorithm, we slice and overlap the original ECG signal to homogenize the heartbeat sets of different types, and then the preprocessed data was used to train the two proposed network models; the results reached an overall accuracy rate of 99.03% and an F1 value of 0.87, respectively. The proposed algorithm model can be used as a real-time diagnostic tool for the remote E-health system in next generation wireless communication networks.
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.
