Heart Rate Variability (HRV) refers to the capability of the heart rhythm to vary at different times, typically reflecting the regulation of the heart by the autonomic nervous system. In recent years, with advancements in Electrocardiogram (ECG) signal processing technology, HRV features reflect various aspects of cardiac activity, such as variability in heart rate, cardiac health status, and responses. We extracted key features of HRV and used them to develop and evaluate an automatic recognition model for cardiac diseases. Consequently, we proposed the HRV Heart Disease Recognition (HHDR) method, employing the Spectral Magnitude Quantification (SMQ) technique for feature extraction. Firstly, the HRV signals are extracted through electrocardiogram signal processing. Then, by analyzing parts of the HRV signal within various frequency ranges, the SMQ method extracts rich features of partial information. Finally, the Random Forest (RF) classification computational method is employed to classify the extracted information, achieving efficient and accurate cardiac disease recognition. Experimental results indicate that this method surpasses current technologies in recognizing cardiac diseases, with an average accuracy rate of 95.1% for normal/diseased classification, and an average accuracy of 84.8% in classifying five different disease categories. Thus, the proposed HHDR method effectively utilizes the local information of HRV signals for efficient and accurate cardiac disease recognition, providing strong support for cardiac disease research in the medical field.
心率变异性(HRV)是指心率在不同时间变化的能力,通常反映自主神经系统对心脏的调节。近年来,随着心电图(ECG)信号处理技术的进步,HRV 特征反映了心脏活动的各个方面,如心率变化、心脏健康状况和反应。我们提取了 HRV 的关键特征,并利用这些特征开发和评估了一种用于自动识别心脏病的模型。因此,我们提出了 HRV 心脏病识别(HHDR)方法,采用谱幅度量化(SMQ)技术进行特征提取。首先,通过心电图信号处理提取 HRV 信号。然后,通过分析 HRV 信号在不同频率范围内的部分,SMQ 方法提取部分信息的丰富特征。最后,采用随机森林(RF)分类计算方法对提取的信息进行分类,实现高效准确的心脏病识别。实验结果表明,该方法在识别心脏病方面优于现有技术,正常/患病分类的平均准确率为 95.1%,五种不同疾病类别的平均准确率为 84.8%。因此,所提出的 HHDR 方法有效地利用了 HRV 信号的局部信息,实现了高效准确的心脏病识别,为医学领域的心脏病研究提供了有力支持。
