A comparative analysis of CNNs and LSTMs for ECG-based diagnosis of arrythmia and congestive heart failure.

Cardiac arrhythmias are major global health concern and their early detection is critical for diagnosis. This study comprehensively evaluates the effectiveness of CNNs and LSTMs for the classification of cardiac arrhythmias, considering three PhysioNet datasets. ECG records are segmented to accommodate around ∼10s of ECG data.

Deep-Learning-Based Arrhythmia Detection Using ECG Signals: A Comparative Study and Performance Evaluation.

Heart diseases is the world's principal cause of death, and arrhythmia poses a serious risk to the health of the patient. Electrocardiogram (ECG) signals can be used to detect arrhythmia early and accurately, which is essential for immediate treatment and intervention. Deep learning approaches have played an important role in automatically identifying complicated patterns from ECG data, which can be further used to identify arrhythmia.
