Diagnosis Myocardial Infarction Based on Stacking Ensemble of Convolutional Neural Network

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies are vital in identifying patients at risk of serious illness by providing an early hazards risk. Myocardial infarction (MI) is a silent disease that has been harvested and is still threatening many lives. The aim of this work is to propose a stacking ensemble based on Convolutional Neural Network model (CNN). The proposed model consists of two primary levels, Level-1 and Level-2. In Level-1, the pre-trained CNN models (i.e., CNN-Model1, CNN-Model2, and CNN-Model3) produce the output probabilities and collect them in stacking for the training and testing sets. In Level-2, four meta-leaner classifiers (i.e., SVM, LR, RF, or KNN) are trained by stacking the output probabilities of the training set and are evaluated using the stacking of the output probabilities of the testing set to make the final prediction results. The proposed work was evaluated based on two ECG heartbeat signals datasets for MI: Massachusetts Institute of Technology-Beth Israel Hospital (MIT-BIH) and Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB) datasets. The proposed model was compared with a diverse set of classical machine learning algorithms such as decision tree, K-nearest neighbor, and support vector machine, and the three base CNN classifiers of CNN-Model1, CNN-Model2, and CNN-Model3. The proposed model based on the RF meta-learner classifier obtained the highest scores, achieving remarkable results on both databases used. For the MIT-BIH dataset it achieved an accuracy of 99.8%, precision of 97%, recall of 96%, and F1-score of 94.4%, outperforming all other methods. while with PTB dataset achieved an accuracy of 99.7%, precision of 99%, recall of 99%, and F1-score of 99%, exceeding the other methods.

Advanced Multi-Label Image Classification Techniques Using Ensemble Methods

“…There are several techniques that exist to concatenate models into an ensemble from the basic arithmetic means, weighted means, voting to an advanced meta-learner [26][27][28][29][30][31]. Some other papers show the medical usage of CNN ensemble techniques [32][33][34]. There are some interesting offline methods, including those from Zhu et al (2023), who demonstrated improvements using dynamic ensemble learning [35]; Xia et al (2021), who highlighted the effectiveness of weighted classifier selection and stacked ensembles [36]; Yao et al (2021), who introduced the MLCE method using label correlations effectively [37] and Nanni et al (2021), who combined ensemble methods with deep learning techniques, showing significant performance boosts [38].…”

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Detection Machine Learning Model Based on Optimized Feature Selection and Explainable Artificial Intelligence

“…Artificial intelligence (AI) has revolutionized the detection and treatment of diseases, specifically PCOS [ 6 ]. AI-based technologies such as machine learning (ML) algorithms and deep learning networks (DL) have enabled the development of automated systems for the accurate and reliable detection of heart disease [ 7 , 8 ]. AI-based methods can identify patterns in medical data, such as hormone levels, to distinguish PCOS patients from those without the disorder.…”

Enhancing Fashion Classification with Vision Transformer (ViT) and Developing Recommendation Fashion Systems Using DINOVA2

“…Many researchers use convolutional neural networks (CCN) to improve the performance of image classification applications such as fashion image classification. CNNs are an extension of artificial neural networks (ANNs) [3,4] that can extract more depth features from images using different layers [5]. Fashion image classification is rapidly expanding with increasing e-commerce and online shopping.…”
