Abstract

This paper presents the improved recognition of patients with sustained ventricular tachycardia and flicker after myocardial infarction based on signal averaged electrocardiography. The novel approach includes: new filtering technique, extended signal description by a set of 9 parameters and the application of transductive support vector machine classifier. The dataset consists of 376 patients selected and commented by cardiologists of the Warsaw Medical University. The best score 94% of successful recognition on the test set was obtained for signals filtered by FIR method, described by 9 parameters.
