A Deep Learning Classification Approach using Feature Fusion Model for Heart Disease Diagnosis

Abstract

Early Diagnosis has a very critical role in medical data processing and automated system. In medical diagnosis, automation is focused in different area of applications, in which heart disease diagnosis is a prominent domain. An early detection of heart disease can save many lives or criticality issues in diagnosing patients. In the process of heart disease diagnosis spatial and frequency domain features are used in making decision by the automation system. The processing features are observed to time variant or invariant in nature and the criticality of the observing feature varies with the diagnosis need. Wherein, the current automation system utilizes the features extracted in a large count to attain a higher accuracy, the processing overhead, and delay are considerable. Different regression approaches were developed in recent past to minimize the processing feature overhead the features are optimized based on gain performance or distance factors. The characteristic variation of feature and the significance of the feature vector are not addressed. This paper outlines a method of feature selection for heart disease diagnosis, based on weighted method of feature vector in consideration of feature significance and probability of estimate. A new optimizing function for feature selection is proposed as a dual function of probability factor and feature weight value. Simulation results illustrate the improvement of accuracy and speed of computation using proposed method compared to other existing methods.
