Classification of atrial fibrillation episodes from sparse electrocardiogram data

Abstract Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common form of cardiac arrhythmia. This paper presents the application of the Classification and Regression Tree (CART) technique for detecting spontaneous termination or sustenance of AF with sparse data. Method Electrocardiogram (ECG) record...

Zusammenfassung:Abstract Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common form of cardiac arrhythmia. This paper presents the application of the Classification and Regression Tree (CART) technique for detecting spontaneous termination or sustenance of AF with sparse data. Method Electrocardiogram (ECG) recordings were obtained from the PhysioNet (AF Termination Challenge Database 2004) Web site. Signal analysis, feature extraction, and classification were made to distinguish among 3 AF episodes, namely, N onterminating (N), S oon (
