A novel automated CNN arrhythmia classifier with memory-enhanced artificial hummingbird algorithm
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2023) Kiymac, Evren; Kaya, Yasin
Cardiac arrhythmias indicate cardiovascular disease which is the leading cause of mortality worldwide, and can be detected by an electrocardiogram (ECG). Automated deep learning methods have been developed to overcome the disadvantages of manual interpretation by medical experts. The performance of the networks strongly depends on hyperparameter optimization (HPO), and this NP-hard problem is suitable for metaheuris-tic (MH) methods. In this study, a novel method is proposed for the HPO of a convolutional neural network (CNN) arrhythmia classifier using an MH algorithm. The approach utilizes our variant of an MH method, named the memory-enhanced artificial hummingbird algorithm, which has an additional memory unit that stores the evaluations of the solutions and reduces the computation time significantly. The study also proposes a novel fitness function that considers both the accuracy rate and the total number of parameters of each candidate network. Experiments were conducted on raw ECG samples from the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database. The proposed method was compared with five other MH methods and achieved equal or outperforming results, with classification accuracy reaching 98.87%. The proposed method yielded promising results in finding a high-performing solution with relatively lower complexity.
