CardioLabelNet: An uncertainty estimation using fuzzy for abnormalities detection in ECG
Abstract
Electrocardiography (ECG) abnormalities are evaluated through several automatic detection methods. Primarily, real-world ECG data are digital signals those are stored in the form of images in hospitals. Also, the existing automated detection technique eliminates the cardiac pattern that is abnormal and it is difficult to multiple abnormalities at some instances. To address those issues in this paper conventional ECG image automated techniques CardioLabelNet model is proposed. The proposed model incorporates two stages for image abnormality detection. At first fuzzy membership is performed in the image for computation of uncertainty. In second stage, classification is performed for computation of abnormal activity. The proposed CardioLabelNet collect ECG image data set for the uncertainty estimation while taking the account of various image classes which includes the global and local entropy of image pixels. For each waveform, uncertainties are calculated on the basis of global entropy. The computation of uncertainty in the images is performed with the fuzzy membership function. The spatial likelihood estimation of a fuzzy weighted membership function is used to calculate local entropy. Upon completion of fuzzification, classification is performed for the detection of normal and abnormal patterns in the ECG signal images. Through integration of stacked architecture model classification is performed for ECG images. The proffered algorithm performance is calculated in terms of accuracy for segmentation, Dice similarity coefficient, and partition entropy. Additionally, classification parameters accuracy sensitivity, specificity, and AUC are evaluated. The proposed approach outperforms the existing methodology, according to the results of a comparative analysis.

1 INTRODUCTION
Electrocardiogram (ECG) is noninvasive medical testing for evaluating the heart condition through electrical activity of the heart. ECG provides a vast range of information that reflects the cardiac physiology based on features such as morphological and temporal based on generated electrical and variation in structure [1]. The well-experienced cardiologist was able to distinguish the categorization of abnormalities in cardiology through visualization of ECG pattern waveform. Machine Learning (ML) is an effective approach for diagnostic and long-term monitoring of patients in hospitals [2]. Therefore, different ML methods have been developed for automatic detection of abnormalities type in ECG. Specifically, existing ML techniques can be categorized as feature-based methods, wavelet transform features, and higher-order statistics (HOS) [3]. With ML-based methods different classification techniques are developed such as Support Vector Machine (SVM), Decision Tree and neural network for training and anomaly detection in ECG waveform [4-6].
Another developed ML technique is the deep neural network (DNN) based technique those actively involved in the processing of medical data [7]. Those techniques are involved in the detection of abnormalities using high-level feature extraction in ECG data [8]. They rely on the representation of data through observed architecture utilized for learning. Although exiting methods provides competitive results in the available data set it is exceptionally challenged in a real clinical environment [9]. Initially, almost several existing methods rely on ECG data in real-time and store images. In ECG signal sample is observed for digital ECG which comprises of multiple clean and well-separated ECG images integrated with fuzzy. In observed ECG waveform overlapping in the waveform is observed due to the presence of different leads and auxiliary axes of the image [10]. In ECG image processing extraction of accurate information is highly challenging due to variation in the poses. Additionally, the drop in sampling rate and digital signal length below 10 leads to a drastic loss of information. In that scenario, it is essential to perform hand-crafted features and DNN based techniques [11]. In the case of hand-crafted feature methods are based on feature extraction, it involved in the conversion of the image in digital format. However, the conversion of the image in digital format leads to high time consuming and quality and recognized also limited [12]. Further, noise generated directly affects the model performance which demands strong DNN learning capabilities-based techniques. Even with strong DNN mechanism discriminative parts are presented due to noise within the images [13].
The clinical diagnosis of ECG is highly complex due to the presence of tiny and subtle variations with the categorization of abnormalities based on the categorization of change in ECG signal as P wave, Q wave, R wave, S wave, T wave, and U wave [14]. To evaluate the abnormalities it is necessary to capture parts that are critical and discriminative accurately this is challenging for image data processing with DNN methods [15]. Additionally, the existing technique concentrated on the classification of ECG signals based on the single label to perform the task in which determination is performed whether the detected abnormalities belong to a particular class or not [16]. However, in clinical ECG records indicators are based on consideration of multiple abnormalities to estimate concurrently. In those cases, the conversion of fitting the single-label classification model within a multilabel task is effective rather than the single-label classification tasks [17]. However, those techniques are not effective in an examination of the relationship that exists between those labels and the predicted label that grows exponentially with an increase in the number of categories.
Usually, in ECG waveform co-occurrence is observed with Left ventricular hypertrophy and changes in ST-T changes [18]. However, those correlations observed between labels in ECG signals are not concentrated in the existing literature. To withstand those challenges, it is necessary to consider multilabel classification issues associated with ECG waveform [19]. The developed mechanism needs to provide multilabel assign of images based on the displayed waveform to resolve multilabel classification.
An essential process in an ECG monitoring and alarm system is the early detection and warning of abrupt abnormal ECGs. However, the nonlinearity and the complexity of the abnormal ECG signals make it very difficult to detect its characteristics. This work proposed a CardioLabelNet model for ECG abnormality detection in the images. The proposed model performs image segmentation and classification. Initially, image segmentation of ECG signal is performed with the estimation of local and global entropy of signal using fuzzy membership function. In the next step, classification is performed for the classification of the normal and abnormal waveform in the ECG. The segmentation process incorporates a fuzzification process for training the data set. The training is performed with estimated global and local entropy of ECG image uncertainty. Finally, classification is performed for those extracted image data sets.
This paper is organized as follows: In Section 2 presented the related works adopted in automated ECG image classification. In Section 3 detailed view of the proposed CardioLabelNet segmentation and classification is presented. The evaluation parameters for the proposed CardioLabelNet are presented in Section 4. In Section 5 comparative analysis of the proposed CardioLabelNet with the existing technique is presented. Finally, the overall conclusion about the proposed CardioLabelNet is presented in Section 6.
2 RELATED WORKS
This section presents the review of related works in terms of image classification, mechanism and recognition. Over several years, several research concentrated on hand-crafted based ECG feature extraction with consideration of frequency domain, higher order statistics (HOS) and wavelet transforms [6]. Through extracted waveform different machine learning methods are incorporated for detection of anomaly such as SVM, Multilayer perceptron (MLP) and K-nearest neighbor (KNN) [20]. While few researcher, adopts hybrid methods for achieving significant performance measures. Additionally, application of MLP methods over images in the classification. However, that method performance over ECG is highly relies on extraction of features in ECG signals [21]. With complex feature extraction techniques and higher sampling are limited in case of ECG signals. As stated, ECG image sampling rate are minimal than that of the digital value.
In those cases, certain techniques are developed for transformation of recorded waveform from image in to digital form [22]. However, those techniques are utilizes heuristics based approach for estimation of time—consuming steps for estimation of accuracy for achieving limited output [23]. Generally, the limitations related to hand-crafted methods are high range of dependent features for data set training. Also, the performance is inadequate due to over-fitting within the ECG records. Moreover, that technique is highly complex and time-consuming for extraction of features in testing and training [24].
With application of DNNs over ECG automated interpretation technique various domains are derived for learning complex functionality with direct input mapping and output is based on hand-engineered features. Over several years, the ECG analysis is performed based on the deep learning models. In [25] developed a patient-specific ECG monitoring system with 3-layer CNN architecture. The developed technique exhibits good accuracy performance in detection of abnormalities associated with arrhythmia. In [26] implemented RNN bases model for feature learning with ECG signal based on consideration of temporal and morphological information. Similarly, [6] proposed a model for detection of arrhythmia using CNN based model. The developed model incorporates 11-layer deep learning model. In [20] developed a transformation of signal of ECG beat in to 2-D grayscale image with 2-D CNN applications. In [27] constructed a 33-layer neural network model for classification of heart rhythms under 14 groups. ECG signal is transformed based on conversion of signal from 1-D to 2-D image. However, those technique lead to separate data storage in those values are learned independently and specific criteria. Even though, general image architecture is subtle with discriminative elimination with classification of ECG signal.
Recently, with advancement of supervised based approach part-level annotations are not incorporated. In [19] constructed a spatial transformation technique for extraction of representation from images based on identification locations on the image. In [28] developed a Bilinear CNN model with feature extraction based on second-order information for discriminative convolution features based on AlexNet or VGGNet. In [29] constructed a bilinear method with representation of compact bilinear through kernel method. The analysis expressed that the computation time and learning parameters are reduced dramatically. In [30] adopted part-level approach based on top-down and domain-specific approach. Also, [31] is the representation of feature and extraction of image with concentration of information order. Generally, information feature extraction comprises of two parts involved in determination of area for estimation of features. In [32] developed a neural network-based model for effective visualization of input image. With developed model prediction accuracy is increased through gradual increase in area. In [33] developed a SENet for estimation of relationship between channels. It effectively involved in estimation of different channel weights is considered as more importance.
Real-world ECG data are primarily digital impulses that are kept in hospitals as pictures. Additionally, the current automated identification method eliminates the abnormal cardiac pattern, and in some cases it is challenging to identify several problems. The CardioLabelNet model is suggested in this research to overcome those problems using conventional ECG image automation approaches. The suggested methodology includes two steps for detecting visual abnormalities. To calculate uncertainty, fuzzy membership is first done in the image. The classification process is carried out in the second stage to calculate aberrant activity.
3 CARDIOLABELNET MODEL FOR SEGMENTATION
In this section presented about entire architecture of the proffered CardioLabelNet algorithm is presented. The suggested CardioLabelNet is employed in the image volume segmentation of the input image. The ECG images are compared in a distributed manner for global factor similarity evaluation. Image regions are segmented according to variations in signal and through the occurrences evaluation. Because it utilizes global feature assessment rather than measuring pixel-by-pixel information, the proffered CardioLabelNet system does not require any additional learning process, as does the existing technique. The proffered algorithm's performance can be determined using entropy computation and a fuzzy estimation technique.
The proposed CardioLabelNet algorithm aimed to segment ECG image in to volume with elimination of high noise level and IIH. Second, it involved in 2 membership function estimation like local and global membership. At last phase, it involved in local entropy and global entropy estimation for segmentation of image using with fuzzifier. Once the fuzzy membership function is created, weights are applied to estimate the images uncertainty for waveform classification. Eventually, CardioLabelNet employed in the regularization process to eliminate trade-off in ECG images between local and global variables. Waveform intensity distribution fluctuates across ECG volumes due to the presence of noise and IIH, resulting in estimating irregular waveform uncertainty of images in ECG are produced and falls within each waveform classes and leads to reduce un-sharpness and maximal uncertainty. Through estimation of waveform entropy uncertainty is evaluated. In Figure 1 presented about entire architecture of proffered CardioLabelNet for the segmentation of Input ECG.

3.1 Uncertainty computation in fuzzy membership function
Originally, the suggested CardioLabelNet model utilized for estimating uncertainty using two entropies: local entropy and global entropy. The fuzzifier is used to measure global entropy, while spatial constrained likelihood estimation is used to estimate local entropy. After the global and local estimation fuzzy membership functions are estimated. Images local entropy is measured employing images neighborhood values and the global entropy employed in calculating image volume uncertainty. This section includes, image uncertainty calculation depending on the neighborhood and uncertainty estimating methods. With the calculation of local entropy and global entropy membership function for fuzzy are used to sort out the trade-off of images volumes parameters. The developed fuzzy technique entailed the estimation of local and global membership functions, as well as the reduction of the image volume's objective function. In the construction of clustered image waveform, the global and local membership functions produced for image volumes are regarded as unrelated independent parameters. Therefore, the final membership function is examined for weighted parameters with integration of two membership function. The ECG image volumes are segmented utilizing membership function. Figure 1 presented about entire architecture of proffered CardioLabelNet algorithm and segmentation is performed. In Supporting Information: Figure S1 overall process involved in fuzzy is presented (Figure 2).


The above (1) equation presents the uncertainty of the images with the computation of global and local entropy.



The waveform parameters for the image i-th Cluster are taken into account while determining membership. The Fuzzy parameter m can be selected optimally which is defined as m > 1.0./it has been discovered thorough comparative examination of existing literature that the optimal value of m is used for regularization those values are between
For ECG images, the waveform Euclidean distance is expressed as and waveform distances are measures as

constrained local neighborhood estimation.





In above equations, N and Njkl denotes total neighboring waveform volume and constrained neighborhood respectively, computed for the waveform center ajkl. The neighboring waveform that corresponds is designated as xjkl. For this weighted fuzzifier and Euclidean distance of images to be determined, products relating to local and global membership estimation need to be discarded to reduce the time consumption. The estimation of the inverse proportional membership function underlies the performance. The local membership estimate is influenced by the assessment of the likelihood for spatially constrained local neighborhood estimation.
3.2 Global and local features approximation





According to the above Equation (9), the weighted parameters as (1 ≤ p, q ≤ 3) are taken into consideration, which have an effect on both global and local membership values.
The ECG waveform components are categorized in the methodology's last step taking into account different waveform features. The waveform at different categories is taken into consideration while creating the fuzzy rule. The image regions are calculated depending on taking into account the various levels of images intensities. Depending upon the gained statistical information images is classifies the waveform of the image. This paper segment the waveform of image, the smoothness and local and global entropies of nonparametric distributions are computed for small and isolated regions depending upon the image intensity distribution matching.


In above rule, for the estimated membership function the image I belongs to I: I ⊂ DI ⊂ Rn(n ∈ {2, 3}) → ZI for the fixed image domain I with ZI space as intensity values of image. A section of the image with abnormalities is segmented based on the estimated segmented image. If the image entropy value is greater than the membership function, it is deemed abnormal; if the image section becomes equal to membership function that can be considered as distortion in the signal; and the waveform is stated as normal if the segmented part is less than the membership function. ECG waveforms are segmented and categorized in accordance of global and local entropy of ECG image measured on the basis of considered parameters.

In machine learning multi label classification is also possible to perform the process of classification for the cases that multiple nonexclusive labels are used to used at each instant of time. It is one among the generalized process of multiclass classification which greatly helps to solve the issues of the single label problem that is the categorization of the instance. In multilabel problem several classes are used in the instance in the nonexclusive form.

In this section presented about results obtained for proposed CardioLabelNet algorithm performance. The analysis of results are presented as follows:
In Supporting Information: Figures S4–S9 different type of ECG waveform are illustrated. While segmenting six volumes of ECG simulated image data, the accuracy of various algorithms is measured. The noise level and IIH range are varied from 5% to 9% and 20% to 40%, respectively, to test the algorithms' robustness with the occurrence of high levels of noise and IIH.

The comparative analysis of proposed CardioLabelNet with conventional fuzzy and classifier-based approach is comparatively examined. The analysis of results stated that proposed CardioLabelNet provides significant performance rather than conventional techniques fuzzy clustering and classifier technique. The entropy value measured for proposed CardioLabelNet is significantly higher than that of conventional technique. However, because these are made up of actual medical data, unlike the earlier simulated ECG image volumes, the ground truths are not available. The Dice coefficient parameters and SA are therefore not advantageous among the four performance indicators. In Table 4 classification performance of proposed CardioLabelNet is presented.
