The alarming prevalence and mortality rates associated with cardiovascular diseases have emphasized the urgency for innovative detection solutions. Traditional methods, often costly, bulky, and prone to subjectivity, fall short of meeting the need for daily monitoring. Digital and portable wearable monitoring devices have emerged as a promising research frontier.

This paper seeks to enhance the performance of Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCCs) for detecting abnormal heart sounds. Heart sounds are first pre-processed to remove noise and then segmented into S1, systole, S2, and diastole intervals, with thirteen MFCCs estimated from each segment, yielding 52 MFCCs per beat. Finally, MFCCs are used for heart sound classification.

A 54-year-old man presented with a significant fourth heart sound (S4) and increased intensity of the second heart sound (S2), despite the absence of heart failure symptoms, in the second week of March 2024. Visualized phonocardiograms confirmed these findings, and further interviews revealed that he had suffered lifestyle changes, such as long commutes and sodium overload, while contributing to the response efforts in the 2024 Noto Peninsula Earthquake. Visualized phonocardiograms were also influential in determining the treatment strategy, persuading the patient to undergo a specific therapy, evaluating the therapeutic effects, and suggesting a new model for clinical practice.

Objective: Phonocardiography has recently gained popularity in low-cost and remote monitoring, including passive fetal heart monitoring. The development of methods which analyse phonocardiographic data tries to capitalize on this opportunity, and in recent years a multitude of such algorithms and models have been published. In these approaches there is little to no standardization and multiple parts of these models have to be reimplemented on a case-by-case basis.

Cardiovascular diseases rank among the leading causes of mortality worldwide and the early identification of diseases is of paramount importance. This work focuses on developing a novel machine learning-based framework for early detection and classification of heart murmurs by analysing phonocardiogram signals. Our heart murmur detection and classification pipeline encompasses three classification settings.
