A Robust Martingale Approach for Detecting Abnormalities in Human Heartbeat Rhythm

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

The analysis of electrocardiogram data is vital to the healthcare system to improve and monitor health conditions. Existing algorithms are effective in discovering abnormalities in electrocardiogram data streams but most of these approaches do not focus on the intensity and duration of these anomalies. In this paper, we propose a new method called alignment of the martingale sequence (AMS) that improves previous approaches using dynamic time warping and particle swarm optimisation to obtain the optimal parameter that maximises F1. Our proposed method can also estimate the severity and extent of an abnormal heartbeat rate. Experimental results show that the proposed approach makes some improvements over the traditional method.
