Abstract

In this paper, we describe a new approach for the discrimination among ventricular fibrillation (VF), ventricular tachycardia (VT) and superventricular tachycardia (SVT) based on a damped exponential (DE) modeling algorithm. Two features, dubbed energy fractional factor (EFF) and predominant frequency (PF), were derived from the DE model. Classification task is achieved by performing a two-stage process using the EFF and PF indicators. Tests conducted using 91 episodes drawn from the MIT-BIH database produced total predictive accuracy of (SVT, VF, VT)=(95%, 96%, 98%).
