Abstract
Traditionally, heart murmurs are diagnosed through cardiac auscultation, which requires specialized training and experience. The purpose of this study is to predict patients' clinical outcomes (normal or abnormal) and identify the presence or absence of heart murmurs using phonocardiograms (PCGs) obtained at different auscultation points. A semi-supervised model tailored to PCG classification is introduced in this study, with the goal of improving performance using time-frequency deep features. The study begins by investigating the behavior of PCGs in the time-frequency domain, utilizing the Stockwell transform to convert the PCG signal into two-dimensional time-frequency maps (TFMs). A deep network named AlexNet is then used to derive deep feature sets from these TFMs. In feature reduction, redundancy is eliminated and the number of deep features is reduced to streamline the feature set. The effectiveness of the extracted features is evaluated using three different classifiers using the CinC/Physionet challenge 2022 dataset. For Task I, which focuses on heart murmur detection, the proposed approach achieved an average accuracy of 93%, sensitivity of 91%, and F1-score of 91%. According to Task II of the CinC/Physionet challenge 2022, the approach showed a clinical outcome cost of 5290, exceeding the benchmark set by leading methods in the challenge.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiac diseases are highly detrimental illnesses, responsible for approximately 32% of global mortality [1]. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment can reduce deaths caused by cardiac diseases. In paediatric patients, it is challenging for paediatricians to identify functional murmurs and pathological murmurs from heart sounds. OBJECTIVE The study intends to develop a novel blended ensemble model using hybrid deep learning models and softmax regression to classify adult, and paediatric heart sounds into five distinct classes, distinguishing itself as a groundbreaking work in this domain. Furthermore, the research aims to create a comprehensive 5-class paediatric phonocardiogram (PCG) dataset. The dataset includes two critical pathological classes, namely atrial septal defects and ventricular septal defects, along with functional murmurs, pathological and normal heart sounds. METHODS The work proposes a blended ensemble model (HbNet-Heartbeat Network) comprising two hybrid models, CNN-BiLSTM and CNN-LSTM, as base models and Softmax regression as meta-learner. HbNet leverages the strengths of base models and improves the overall PCG classification accuracy. Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCC) capture the crucial audio signal characteristics relevant to the classification. The amalgamation of these two deep learning structures enhances the precision and reliability of PCG classification, leading to improved diagnostic results. RESULTS The HbNet model exhibited excellent results with an average accuracy of 99.72% and sensitivity of 99.3% on an adult dataset, surpassing all the existing state-of-the-art works. The researchers have validated the reliability of the HbNet model by testing it on a real-time paediatric dataset. The paediatric model's accuracy is 86.5%. HbNet detected functional murmur with 100% precision. CONCLUSION The results indicate that the HbNet model exhibits a high level of efficacy in the early detection of cardiac disorders. Results also imply that HbNet has the potential to serve as a valuable tool for the development of decision-support systems that aid medical practitioners in confirming their diagnoses. This method makes it easier for medical professionals to diagnose and initiate prompt treatment while performing preliminary auscultation and reduces unnecessary echocardiograms.

Abstract
Heart valve disease (HVD) is one of the common cardiovascular diseases. Heart sound is an important physiological signal for diagnosing HVDs. This paper proposed a model based on combination of basic component features and envelope autocorrelation features to detect early HVDs. Initially, heart sound signals lasting 5 minutes were denoised by empirical mode decomposition (EMD) algorithm and segmented. Then the basic component features and envelope autocorrelation features of heart sound segments were extracted to construct heart sound feature set. Then the max-relevance and min-redundancy (MRMR) algorithm was utilized to select the optimal mixed feature subset. Finally, decision tree, support vector machine (SVM) and k-nearest neighbor (KNN) classifiers were trained to detect the early HVDs from the normal heart sounds and obtained the best accuracy of 99.9% in clinical database. Normal valve, abnormal semilunar valve and abnormal atrioventricular valve heart sounds were classified and the best accuracy was 99.8%. Moreover, normal valve, single-valve abnormal and multi-valve abnormal heart sounds were classified and the best accuracy was 98.2%. In public database, this method also obtained the good overall accuracy. The result demonstrated this proposed method had important value for the clinical diagnosis of early HVDs.

An efficient and robust Phonocardiography (PCG)-based Valvular Heart Diseases (VHD) detection framework using Vision Transformer (ViT). Comput Biol Med 2023; 158:106734. [PMID: 36989745 DOI: 10.1016/j.compbiomed.2023.106734] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2022] [Revised: 01/31/2023] [Accepted: 02/28/2023] [Indexed: 03/05/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Valvular heart diseases (VHDs) are one of the dominant causes of cardiovascular abnormalities that have been associated with high mortality rates globally. Rapid and accurate diagnosis of the early stage of VHD based on cardiac phonocardiogram (PCG) signal is critical that allows for optimum medication and reduction of mortality rate. METHODS To this end, the current study proposes novel deep learning (DL)-based high-performance VHD detection frameworks that are relatively simpler in terms of network structures, yet effective for accurately detecting multiple VHDs. We present three different frameworks considering both 1D and 2D PCG raw signals. For 1D PCG, Mel frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCC) and linear prediction cepstral coefficients (LPCC) features, whereas, for 2D PCG, various deep convolutional neural networks (D-CNNs) features are extracted. Additionally, nature/bio-inspired algorithms (NIA/BIA) including particle swarm optimization (PSO) and genetic algorithm (GA) have been utilized for automatic and efficient feature selection directly from the raw PCG signal. To further improve the performance of the classifier, vision transformer (ViT) has been implemented levering the self-attention mechanism on the time frequency representation (TFR) of 2D PCG signal. Our extensive study presents a comparative performance analysis and the scope of enhancement for the combination of different descriptors, classifiers, and feature selection algorithms. MAIN RESULTS Among all classifiers, ViT provides the best performance by achieving mean average accuracy Acc of 99.90 % and F1-score of 99.95 % outperforming current state-of-the-art VHD classification models. CONCLUSIONS The present research provides a robust and efficient DL-based end-to-end PCG signal classification framework for designing a automated high-performance VHD diagnosis system.

Abstract
Heart sounds convey important information regarding potential heart diseases. Currently, heart sound classification attracts many researchers from the fields of telemedicine, digital signal processing, and machine learning-among others-mainly to identify cardiac pathology as quickly as possible. This article proposes chaogram as a new transform to convert heart sound signals to colour images. In the proposed approach, the output image is, therefore, the projection of the reconstructed phase space representation of the phonocardiogram (PCG) signal on three coordinate planes. This has two major benefits: (1) it makes possible to apply deep convolutional neural networks to heart sounds and (2) it is also possible to employ a transfer learning scheme by converting a heart sound signal to an image. The performance of the proposed approach was verified on the PhysioNet dataset. Due to the imbalanced data on this dataset, it is common to assess the results quality using the average of sensitivity and specificity, which is known as score, instead of accuracy. In this study, the best results were achieved using the InceptionV3 model, which achieved a score of 88.06%.

Abstract
Background Cardiac auscultation is a traditional method that is most frequently used for identifying congenital heart disease (CHD). Failure to diagnose CHD may occur in patients with faint murmurs or obesity. We aimed to develop an intelligent diagnostic method of detecting heart murmurs in patients with ventricular septal defects (VSDs) and atrial septal defects (ASDs). Materials and methods Digital recordings of heart sounds and phonocardiograms of 184 participants were obtained. All participants underwent echocardiography by pediatric cardiologists to determine the type of CHD. The phonocardiogram data were classified as normal, ASD, or VSD. Then, the phonocardiogram signal was used to extract features to construct diagnostic models for disease classification using an advanced optical coherence tomography network (AOCT-NET). Cardiologists were asked to distinguish normal heart sounds from ASD/VSD murmurs after listening to the electronic sound recordings. Comparisons of the cardiologists' assessment and AOCT-NET performance were performed. Results Echocardiography results revealed 88 healthy participants, 50 with ASDs, and 46 with VSDs. The AOCT-NET had no advantage in detecting VSD compared with cardiologist assessment. However, AOCT-NET performance was better than that of cardiologists in detecting ASD (sensitivity, 76.4 vs. 27.8%, respectively; specificity, 90 vs. 98.5%, respectively). Conclusion The proposed method has the potential to improve the ASD detection rate and could be an important screening tool for patients without symptoms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The lack of medical facilities in isolated areas makes many patients remain aloof from quick and timely diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases, leading to high mortality rates. A deep learning based method for automatic diagnosis of multiple cardiac diseases from Phonocardiogram (PCG) signals is proposed in this paper. METHODS The proposed system is a combination of deep learning based convolutional neural network (CNN) and power spectrogram Cardi-Net, which can extract deep discriminating features of PCG signals from the power spectrogram to identify the diseases. The choice of Power Spectral Density (PSD) makes the model extract highly discriminatory features significant for the multi-classification of four common cardiac disorders. RESULTS Data augmentation techniques are applied to make the model robust, and the model undergoes 10-fold cross-validation to yield an overall accuracy of 98.879% on the test dataset to diagnose multi heart diseases from PCG signals. CONCLUSION The proposed model is completely automatic, where signal pre-processing and feature engineering are not required. The conversion time of power spectrogram from PCG signals is very low range from 0.10 s to 0.11 s. This reduces the complexity of the model, making it highly reliable and robust for real-time applications. The proposed architecture can be deployed on cloud and a low cost processor, desktop, android app leading to proper access to the dispensaries in remote areas.

Abstract
Coronary Artery Diseases (CADs) are a dominant cause of worldwide fatalities. The development of accurate and timely diagnosis routines is imperative to reduce these risks and mortalities. Coronary angiography, an invasive and expensive technique, is currently used as a diagnostic tool for the detection of CAD but it has some procedural hazards, i.e., it requires arterial puncture, and the subject gets exposed to iodinated radiation. Phonocardiography (PCG), a non-invasive and inexpensive technique, is a modality employing heart sounds to diagnose heart diseases but it requires only trained medical personnel to apprehend cardiac murmurs in clinical environments. Furthermore, there is a strong compulsion to characterize CAD into its types, such as Single vessel coronary artery disease (SVCAD), Double vessel coronary artery disease (DVCAD), and Triple vessel coronary artery disease (TVCAD) to assist the cardiologist in decision making about the treatment procedure followed. This paper presents a computer-aided diagnosis system for the categorization of CAD and its types based on Phonocardiogram (PCG) signal analysis. The raw PCG signals were denoised via empirical mode decomposition (EMD) to remove redundant information and noise. Next, we extract MFCC and proposed 1D-Adaptive Local Ternary Patterns (1D-ALTP) and fused them serially to get a strong feature representation of multiple PCG signal classes. Features were further reduced through Multidimensional Scaling (MDS) and subjected to several classification methods such as support vector machines (SVM), Decision Tree (DT), and K-nearest neighbors (KNN) in a comparative fashion. The best classification performances of 98.3% and 97.2% mean accuracies were obtained through SVM with the cubic kernel for binary and multiclass experiments, respectively. The performance of the proposed system is comprehensively tested through 10-fold cross-validation and hold-out train-test techniques to avoid model overfitting. Comparative analysis with existing approaches advocates the superiority of the proposed approach.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the main cause of deaths all over the world. This research focuses on computer-aided analysis based on deep learning of phonocardiogram (PCG) signals that can enable improved and timely detection of heart abnormalities. The two widely used publicly available PCG datasets are from the PhysioNet/CinC (2016) and PASCAL (2011) challenges. The datasets are significantly different in terms of the tools used for data acquisition, clinical protocols, digital storages and signal qualities, making it challenging to process and analyze. APPROACH In this work, we have used short-time Fourier transform (STFT) based spectrograms to learn the representative patterns of the normal and abnormal PCG signals. Spectrograms generated from both the datasets are utilized to perform four different studies: (i) train, validate and test different variants of convolutional neural network (CNN) models with PhysioNet dataset, (ii) train, validate and test the best performing CNN structure on PASCAL dataset as well as, (iii) on the combined PhysioNet-PASCAL dataset and (iv) finally, transfer learning technique is employed to train the best performing pre-trained network from the first study with PASCAL dataset. MAIN RESULTS The first study achieves an accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, precision and F1 score of 95.75%, 96.3%, 94.1%, 97.52% , and 96.93% respectively while the second study shows accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, precision and F1 score of 75.25%, 74.2%, 76.4%, 76.73%, and 75.42% respectively. The third study shows accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, precision and F1 score of 92.7%, 94.98%, 89.95%, 95.3% and 94.6% respectively. Finally, the fourth study shows a precision of 96.98% on the noisy PASCAL dataset with transfer learning approach. SIGNIFICANCE The proposed approach employs a less complex and relatively light custom CNN model that outperforms most of the recent competing studies by achieving comparatively high classification accuracy and precision, making it suitable for screening CVDs using PCG signals.

Abstract
The heart valve ailments (HVAs) are due to the defects in the valves of the heart and if untreated may cause heart failure, clots, and even sudden cardiac death. Automated early detection of HVAs is necessary in the hospitals for proper diagnosis of pathological cases, to provide timely treatment, and to reduce the mortality rate. The heart valve abnormalities will alter the heart sound and murmurs which can be faithfully captured by phonocardiogram (PCG) recordings. In this paper, a time-frequency based deep layer kernel sparse representation network (DLKSRN) is proposed for the detection of various HVAs using PCG signals. Spline kernel-based Chirplet transform (SCT) is used to evaluate the time-frequency representation of PCG recording, and the features like L1-norm (LN), sample entropy (SEN), and permutation entropy (PEN) are extracted from the different frequency components of the time-frequency representation of PCG recording. The DLKSRN formulated using the hidden layers of extreme learning machine- (ELM-) autoencoders and kernel sparse representation (KSR) is used for the classification of PCG recordings as normal, and pathology cases such as mitral valve prolapse (MVP), mitral regurgitation (MR), aortic stenosis (AS), and mitral stenosis (MS). The proposed approach has been evaluated using PCG recordings from both public and private databases, and the results demonstrated that an average sensitivity of 100%, 97.51%, 99.00%, 98.72%, and 99.13% are obtained for normal, MVP, MR, AS, and MS cases using the hold-out cross-validation (CV) method. The proposed approach is applicable for the Internet of Things- (IoT-) driven smart healthcare system for the accurate detection of HVAs.

Abstract
Heart problems are responsible for the majority of deaths worldwide. The use of intelligent techniques to assist in the identification of existing patterns in these diseases can facilitate treatments and decision making in the field of medicine. This work aims to extract knowledge from a dataset based on heart noise behaviors in order to determine whether heart murmur predilection exists or not in the analyzed patients. A heart murmur can be pathological due to defects in the heart, so the use of an evolving hybrid technique can assist in detecting this comorbidity team, and at the same time, extract knowledge through fuzzy linguistic rules, facilitating the understanding of the nature of the evaluated data. Heart disease detection tests were performed to compare the proposed hybrid model's performance with state of the art for the subject. The results obtained (90.75% accuracy) prove that in addition to great assertiveness in detecting heart murmurs, the evolving hybrid model could be concomitant with the extraction of knowledge from data submitted to an intelligent approach.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The high mortality rate and increasing prevalence of heart valve diseases globally warrant the need for rapid and accurate diagnosis of such diseases. Phonocardiogram (PCG) signals are used in this study due to the low cost of obtaining the signals. This study classifies five types of heart sounds, namely normal, aortic stenosis, mitral valve prolapse, mitral stenosis, and mitral regurgitation. METHODS We have proposed a novel in-house developed deep WaveNet model for automated classification of five types of heart sounds. The model is developed using a total of 1000 PCG recordings belonging to five classes with 200 recordings in each class. RESULTS We have achieved a training accuracy of 97% for the classification of heart sounds into five classes. The highest classification accuracy of 98.20% was achieved for the normal class. The developed model was validated with a 10-fold cross-validation, thus affirming its robustness. CONCLUSION The study results clearly indicate that the developed model is able to classify five types of heart sounds accurately. The developed system can be used by cardiologists to aid in the detection of heart valve diseases in patients.

Abstract
The signals in numerous fields usually have scaling behaviors (long-range dependence and self-similarity) which is characterized by the Hurst parameter H. Fractal Brownian motion (FBM) plays an important role in modeling signals with self-similarity and long-range dependence. Wavelet analysis is a common method for signal processing, and has been used for estimation of Hurst parameter. This paper conducts a detailed numerical simulation study in the case of FBM on the selection of parameters and the empirical bias in the wavelet-based estimator which have not been studied comprehensively in previous studies, especially for the empirical bias. The results show that the empirical bias is due to the initialization errors caused by discrete sampling, and is not related to simulation methods. When choosing an appropriate orthogonal compact supported wavelet, the empirical bias is almost not related to the inaccurate bias correction caused by correlations of wavelet coefficients. The latter two causes are studied via comparison of estimators and comparison of simulation methods. These results could be a reference for future studies and applications in the scaling behavior of signals. Some preliminary results of this study have provided a reference for my previous studies.

Texture Classification Using Spectral Entropy of Acoustic Signal Generated by a Human Echolocator. ENTROPY 2019.

Abstract
Human echolocation is a biological process wherein the human emits a punctuated acoustic signal, and the ear analyzes the echo in order to perceive the surroundings. The peculiar acoustic signal is normally produced by clicking inside the mouth. This paper utilized this unique acoustic signal from a human echolocator as a source of transmitted signal in a synthetic human echolocation technique. Thus, the aim of the paper was to extract information from the echo signal and develop a classification scheme to identify signals reflected from different textures at various distance. The scheme was based on spectral entropy extracted from Mel-scale filtering output in the Mel-frequency cepstrum coefficient of a reflected echo signal. The classification process involved data mining, features extraction, clustering, and classifier validation. The reflected echo signals were obtained via an experimental setup resembling a human echolocation scenario, configured for synthetic data collection. Unlike in typical speech signals, extracted entropy from the formant characteristics was likely not visible for the human mouth-click signals. Instead, multiple peak spectral features derived from the synthesis signal of the mouth-click were assumed as the entropy obtained from the Mel-scale filtering output. To realize the classification process, K-means clustering and K-nearest neighbor processes were employed. Moreover, the impacts of sound propagation toward the extracted spectral entropy used in the classification outcome were also investigated. The outcomes of the classifier performance herein indicated that spectral entropy is essential for human echolocation.
