Atrial fibrillation detection using support vector machine

This article introduces a new method for detection of atrial fibrillation (AFib) using a support vector machine (SVM). AFib could lead to heart failure and stroke and thus an AFib early detection is very important. In this article, an SVM and variabilities of electrocardiographic heart rate are employed to detect AFib. Radial basis functions (RBF) … Read more

RR-Interval variance of electrocardiogram for atrial fibrillation detection

Atrial fibrillation is a serious heart problem originated from the upper chamber of the heart. The common indication of atrial fibrillation is irregularity of R peak-to-R-peak time interval, which is shortly called RR interval. The irregularity could be represented using variance or spread of RR interval. This article presents a system to detect atrial fibrillation … Read more
