“…Significant research progress has been made in developing decision support systems based on various machine learning and deep learning algorithms for heart disease diagnosis which poses a serious health concern for the general population. Electrocardiograms (ECG or EKG) [29], [22], [6], [23], [30], [8], Photoplethysmograph [27], [36], [9], [26], [13], and auscultations [34], [14], [31], [32] modalities have been used for automated decision making. Owing to large body of work on deep learning based heart disease classification, in this section we limit the scope of our discussion to the most relevant works to our approach of using UMAP and research on the Mendeley Children heart Sound dataset.…”
