摘要

Cardiac arrhythmia is a significant heart disorder distinguished by abnormal heart rhythms. It can cause severe health conditions if it is undetected. Electrocardiogram (ECG) signals provide vital information about heart function which makes them a valuable tool for arrhythmia detection. In this study, a novel strategy is proposed for the classification of cardiac arrhythmias using advanced deep learning techniques, CNN-LSTM-Attention model specifically a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) combined with Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) layers as well as an attention mechanism. The CNN model automatically extracts key spatial features from digitized ECG datasets, the LSTM model captures temporal dependencies and patterns in the sequential data which ensures a more comprehensive analysis of heart activity and attention mechanism further enhancing the model by assigning higher importance to relevant time steps in the ECG sequence. This model is evaluated on the CPEIC cardiac dataset public dataset. The proposed model achieves superior performance in terms of accuracy of 99.29%, precision of 99.29%, recall of 99.2%, and F1-score 97.87% compared to the existing traditional methods. This method is a hybrid approach that leverages the strengths of both CNN and Bi-LSTM, offering a robust solution for real-time and automated cardiac arrhythmia detection.
