Regularized HessELM and Inclined Entropy Measurement for Congestive Heart Failure Prediction

Our study concerns with automated predicting of congestive heart failure (CHF) through the analysis of electrocardiography (ECG) signals. A novel machine learning approach, regularized hessenberg decomposition based extreme learning machine (R-HessELM), and feature models; squared, circled, inclined and grid entropy measurement were introduced and used for prediction of CHF. This study proved that inclined entropy measurements features well represent characteristics of ECG signals and together with R-HessELM approach overall accuracy of 98.49% was achieved.
