Neural network models for biosignal analysis.
Signal analysis provides important clues for diagnosis of disease in many arenas, particularly in cardiology. While each result may give good diagnostic information, a comprehensive decision model requires the combination of results. In the work described here, a neural network model is used to combine various features obtained through signal analysis. The original model is based on electrocardiogram (ECG analysis). This model is extended in two ways: the neural network model is expanded to include other clinical parameters in addition to the ECG and the method is generalized to include other biosignals.
