Abstract

A method for ECG and capnogram signals classification is proposed based on fuzzy similarity evaluation, where shape exchange algorithm and fuzzy inference are combined. It aims to be applied to quasi-periodic biomedical signals and has low computational cost. On the experiments for atrial fibrillation (AF) classification using two databases: MIT-BIH AF and MITBIH Normal Sinus Rhythm, values of 100%, 94.4%, and 97.6% for sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy respectively, and execution time of 0.6 s are obtained. The proposal is capable of been extended to classify different diseases, from ECG and capnogram signals, such as: Brugada syndrome, AV block, hypoventilation, and asthma among others to be implemented in low computational resources devices.
