Abstract

The automated examination of electrocardiogram (ECG) signals holds significant importance within the medical field for managing various critical cardiac conditions. Identifying cardiomyopathy and arrhythmias is presently recognized as a challenging endeavor. While machine learning techniques have garnered substantial attention for categorizing these patterns, a predominant focus has been on the classification of arrhythmias. However, existing studies have overlooked instances where arrhythmia leads to cardiomyopathy, a specific cardiac disease scenario. In our research, we introduce an innovative method aimed at distinguishing between cardiomyopathy and cardiomyopathy accompanied by arrhythmia by employing a convolutional neural network (CNN-based) model. This novel approach fills the gap in existing literature by addressing the critical need to classify cases where arrhythmia induces cardiomyopathy, thereby presenting a potential advancement in accurately identifying and managing complex cardiac conditions. The proposed model uses convolution-based CNN model for feature extraction and combines these features with temporal features. Further, a CNN combined long short-term memory (CNN-LSTM) model is presented for classification where CNN models help to obtain the spatial information and LSTM helps to retain the temporal information resulting in improved classification accuracy. the experimental analysis is carried out into two phases where we have classified the rhythms and arrhythmias.
