Abstract: With new developments experienced in Internet of Things (IoT), wearable, and sensing technology, the value of healthcare services has enhanced. This evolution has brought significant changes from conventional medicine-based healthcare to real-time observation-based healthcare. Bio-medical Electrocardiogram (ECG) signals are generally utilized in examination and diagnosis of Cardiovascular Diseases (CVDs) since it is quick and non-invasive in nature. Due to increasing number of patients in recent years, the classifier efficiency gets reduced due to high variances observed in ECG signal patterns obtained from patients. In such scenario computer-assisted automated diagnostic tools are important for classification of ECG signals. The current study devises an Improved Bat Algorithm with Deep Learning Based Biomedical ECG Signal Classification (IBADL-BECGC) approach. To accomplish this, the proposed IBADL-BECGC model initially pre-processes the input signals. Besides, IBADL-BECGC model applies NasNet model to derive the features from test ECG signals. In addition, Improved Bat Algorithm (IBA) is employed to optimally fine-tune the hyperparameters related to NasNet approach. Finally, Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) classification algorithm is executed to perform ECG classification method. The presented IBADL-BECGC model was experimentally validated utilizing benchmark dataset. The comparison study outcomes established the improved performance of IBADL-BECGC model over other existing methodologies since the former achieved a maximum accuracy of 97.49%.

1  Introduction

Implanted or worn-type remote monitoring gadgets allow efficient remote monitoring and healthcare for patients suffering from periodic heart arrhythmia since these devices are capable of observing heart activities continuously [1]. Meanwhile, such gadgets generate huge volumes of Electrocardiogram (ECG) data for interpretation by physicians. This interpretation task falls upon doctors, nurse practitioners, and other medical professionals [2]. In this scenario, additional work pressure upon healthcare staff results in fatigue which is often encountered by them during working hours. It also increases their chances of medical mistakes [3]. Moreover, an important drawback found in established ECG recordings is that it tend to create wrong alarms frequently. Hence, remote monitoring gadgets are designed to handle more delicate to abnormal signals from the ECG so as to avert missing any major cardiac actions [4,5]. Thus, there exists an increasing requirement in guiding the doctors to interpret ECG records. Unfortunately, the difficulty in examining the ECG signal pattern is not only confined to this scenario. ECG signals consist of short durations and small amplitudes which can be measured in milliseconds and millivolts with great intra- and inter-observer variability that can affect the perceptibility of such signs [6,7]. It is a time-consuming process to scrutinize numerous ECG signals and the high chances are high for likely misunderstanding of important data. Automatic diagnostic systems use computerized detection of cardiac abnormalities on the basis of beat or rhythm so as to overcome these hindrances. It can be a typical process for doctors to categorize ECG recordings based on automated diagnostic systems [8,9].

Deep Learning (DL) is a kind of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technique that can study and derive valuable patterns from complicated raw data. In recent years, DL technique is predominantly being applied in the analysis of ECG signals to diagnose valvular heart disease [10], arrhythmia, left ventricular hypertrophy, heart failure, age, and myocardial infarction and yield good outcome. DL technique yields outstanding performance in a short period of time [11,12]. DL is sophisticated such that it consists of much better capability of feature. It can represent at abstract level compared to general Machine Learning (ML) techniques. Further, DL method can automatically drive a hierarchical representation of the raw data and use the last stacking layers to gain knowledge from simple as well as complicated features [13].

In literature [14], ECG signal was pre-processed using Support Vector Machine (SVM)-based arrhythmic beat classifier in order to differentiate normal from abnormal subjects. In the pre-processed ECG signals, a delayed error that normalizes the Least Mean Square (LMS) adaptive filter was utilized to achieve high speed and low latency design with lesser computational elements. Discrete wavelet transform (DWT) was executed on the pre-processed signals for Heart Rate Variability (HRV) feature extraction and ML approaches were utilized to perform arrhythmic beat classification. In the study conducted earlier [15], a DL approach was presented with end-to-end infrastructure on typical 12-lead ECG signals for analysis. To this drive, an ordinarily utilized approach named Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) was utilized. In literature [16], the authors offered a detailed outline of novel DL algorithms that is utilized for the classification of ECG signals. This research identified distinct kinds of DL approaches like Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU), Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), ResNet, and InceptionV3. In most cases, CNN was mostly utilized as a suitable approach to extract the suitable features. In previous study [17], a new end-to-end structure was proposed from a federated setting to ECG-based healthcare in order to tackle the challenges discussed above. In this study, Artificial Intelligence (XAI) and Deep CNN (DCNN) were utilized. A federated setting was utilized to resolve the challenges namely, data accessibility and privacy concern. Besides, the presented structure efficiently classified distinct arrhythmias with the help of AE and CNN.

Qi et al. [18] established a feasible Cybertwin-based multi-modal network (beyond 5G) for ECG patterns that are monitored in day-to-day activities. This network paradigm is a cloud-centric network with a number of Cybertwin transmission ends. Khanna et al. [19] examined a novel IoT- and DL-enabled Healthcare Disease Diagnosis (IoTDL-HDD) approach with the help of bio-medical ECG signals. The aim of the presented IoTDL-HDD approach is to detect the occurrence of CVDs in bio-medical ECG signal using DL approach. Besides, the presented IoTDL-HDD approach employs a bidirectional LSTM (BiLSTM) feature extraction approach to extract the helpful feature vectors in ECG signal. Moreover, Fuzzy Deep Neural Network (FDNN) classification was utilized to allocate suitable class labels to ECG signals.

The current study devises an Improved Bat Algorithm with Deep Learning Based Biomedical ECG Signal Classification (IBADL-BECGC) approach. An important purpose of the proposed IBADL-BECGC algorithm is to classify the ECG signals into distinct classes. To accomplish this, IBADL-BECGC model initially pre-processes the input signals. Besides, the IBADL-BECGC model applies NasNet model to derive the features from test ECG signals. In addition, Improved Bat Algorithm (IBA) is employed to optimally fine-tune the hyperparameters related to NasNet algorithm. Finally, Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) classification approach is executed to perform ECG classification. The experimental validation of the presented IBADL-BECGC technique was conducted utilizing benchmark dataset.

2  The Proposed Model

In current study, a novel IBADL-BECGC model has been developed for the classification of ECG signals into different classes. To accomplish this, IBADL-BECGC model initially pre-processes the input signals. Besides, IBADL-BECGC model applies NasNet model to derive the features from test ECG signals. In addition, IBA is also employed to optimally fine-tune the hyperparameters related to NasNet algorithm. Finally, ELM classification technique is executed to perform ECG classification procedure. Fig. 1 depicts the block diagram of IBADL-BECGC approach.

Figure 1: Block diagram of IBADL-BECGC approach

2.1 Feature Extraction Using NASNet Model

In current study, the proposed IBADL-BECGC model applies NASNet model to derive the features from test ECG signals. NasNet model is an ML technique expanded as Neural Search Architecture Network (NASNet) [20]. NasNet model has the compatibility in multiple established approaches namely GoogleNet in numerous pivotal means and it can be a game changer for Artificial Intelligence (AI) technique as well. In order to develop the most effective structure, there exists a need to have comprehensive knowledge related to subject matter. In order to build neural networks, many more experiments are required and mistakes tend to happen. These procedural flaws consume heavy cost and time. Though human specialists can create an effective model structure, it may not be able to provide assurance that the complete network architectural space has been explored and the optimum solution is identified. It can be a search system that searches for the finest methodology to accomplish a particular task. Various novel and ground-breaking proposals have been made earlier for cost-effective, precise, and rapid Neural Architectural Search (NAS) techniques. For instance, Google’s AutoML and Auto-Keras are open-source tools and commercial services that make NAS available to broader ML society. Three significant steps are followed in NASNet such as 1) searching space 2) searching technique, and 3) estimation techniques. It consists of two distinct cells such as reduction cell and normal cell. Such cells are transmitted via distinct kinds of depth-wise separated convolutions, max pooling layers, dropout layers, the activation function, and dilated convolutions.

2.2 Hyperparameter Tuning Using IBA

Next, IBA is employed for optimal fine-tuning of the hyperparameters related to NASNet approach. At last, the parameter tuning of ELM algorithm can be attained using Improved Bat Algorithm (IBA). Bat Algorithm (BA) is a powerful optimization technique and is extensively applied in a variety of applications namely, parameter extraction of photovoltaic model, image development, ELM model training, satellite formation system, feature selection, and optimum control of power schemes [21]. BA has a few advantages to note such as quick and excellent convergence in exploration and exploitation stages. During every iteration, both pulsation as well as loudness rate of the bat are revised. At first, an arbitrary population of bats is initialized. The location of the bat is taken into account as a decision parameter. Velocity, location, and frequency of the bat are altered as follows.

fi=fmin+(fmax−fmin)β(1)

vit=vit−1+(xit−1−x∗)fi(2)

xit=xit−1+vit(3)

From the expression, fmin: minimal frequency, β: arbitrary number, x∗: optimal solution, fmax: maximal frequency, vir: xit−1: location of ith bat at iteration t−1, the velocity of ith bat at iteration t,xit: the place of ith bat at iteration t, and fi: frequency of ith bat. The bat exploits the arbitrary walk as a local searching agent.

xnew=xold+εAt(4)

xold: old location of the bat, xnew: novel location of the bat, ε: arbitrary number, and At: loudness. Both pulsation and loudness rates are changed as follows.

Ait+1=ϑAit,rit+1=[1−exp(−γt)](5)

Here, rit+1: pulsation rate of ith bat, Ait+1: loudness of ith bat at iteration t+1, ϑ, and γ: constants. At first, the arbitrary value of the parameters and initialized population are described. At last, the bat with fitness value of objective function is defined and the position and velocity of the bat are upgraded.

IBA method is derived using Lévy Flight (LF) method. This procedure is applied to get rid of premature convergence issues which remain the primary disadvantage of BA. Lévy Flight (LF) method provides an arbitrary walk technique to prosper the management of local searching agents. This technique is illustrated below.

Le(w)≈w−1−τ(6)

w=A|B|1τ(7)

σ2={Γ(1+τ)τΓ(1+τ2)sin⁡(πτ2)21+τ2}2τ(8)

If 0<τ≤2,A∼N(O,σ2) and B∼N(O,σ2),Γ(.) denotes the Gamma function, w denotes the step size, τ indicates Lévy index, A/B∼N(O,σ2) suggests that the instance, created from Gaussian distribution in that variance, is σ2 and the mean is 0. Based on the abovementioned technique, a novel improved portion to upgrade the solution of BA is given herewith.

D→el=D→e+|P→N+d→e|×Le(δ)(9)

From the expression, De| denotes the novel position of searching agent De. To provide assurance for the optimal solution candidate, an appropriate agent is retained.

De|={De|F(De|)>F(De)Deotherwise(10)

2.3 ELM Based Classification

At last, ELM classification model is applied to perform ECG classification. ELM is a Feed Forward Neural Network (FFNN) that removes the obstruction of upgrading weights and biases [22]. It aims at removing slight training error and also accomplish low weight standards that boost the whole efficiency. The problem of getting trapped in local minimum is alternatively managed by avoiding the small problem. Fig. 2 defines the infrastructure of ELM. For H arbitrary sample (pi,tj), where pi = [pi1,pi2…pin]T∈Qn and ti=[ti1,ti2…tim]T∈Qm, a Single hidden Layer Feedforward neural network (SLFN) with f(⋅) activation function and hidden node G is represented below.

∑i=1Gwjfi(pj)=∑i=1Gwjf(aj×pjj′+cj)=o(j=1,2,…H),(11)

Figure 2: Architecture of ELM

In Eq. (11), ai=[ai1,aι2…ain]T suggests the weight vector concern i−th input and hidden nodes, wi=[wi1,wi2…win]T characterizes the weight vector relates to ith hidden to output nodes, ci designates the threshold of hidden nodes, and 0j=[0j1,0J2…0jm]T indicates the jth output vector of SLFN. SLFN, with hidden node G and f activation functions, estimates H description with zero error that denotes Σj=1G||0j−tj||=0 and present ωi, ai, and ci as

∑j=1Gwif(ai×yj+ci)=tj(j=1,2,…H),(12)

The abovementioned expression is given as follows.

Mw=T,(13)

and

M(a1,…,aG′c1,…,cG′y1,…,yG)=[f(a1×y1+c1)⋯f(aG×y1+cG)⋮⋯⋮f(a1×yH+c1)⋯f(aG×yH+cG)]H×G,(14)

w=[w1T...wNT]G×n,(15)

T=[t1T...tNT]G×n,(16)

Here, M represents output matrix and kth column of M signifies the output of kth hidden nodes based on input y1, y2…yH. The solution of linear scheme is as follows.

w=M−1T,(17)

Now M−1 represents Moore-Penrose generalized inverse of matrix, M.

g(y)=p(y)w=p(y)M−1T,(18)

ELM training has three parameters. This training set K={(yj,tj)|yj∈Qn,tj∈Qm,j=1,…H}; the hidden node amount G and hidden node output function f(ai, ci,yj). Once the value of the variable is accurately set, the training process of ELM is initialized. At first, ELM arbitrarily produces the value for G set of hidden node parameters, (ai,ci). Next, M output matrix is formed using Eq. (13) according to the input generated and arbitrarily-selected parameters. Consequently, ω output weight vector is produced. The classification outcome of the testing data tuples is forecasted after the completion of training phase.
