This paper highlights the application of methods and techniques from nonlinear analysis to illustrate their far superior capability in revealing complex cardiac dynamics under various physiological and pathological states. The purpose is to augment conventional (time and frequency based) heart rate variability analysis, and to extract significant prognostic and clinically relevant information for risk stratification and improved diagnosis. In this work, several nonlinear indices are estimated for RR intervals based time series data acquired for Healthy Sinus Rhythm (HSR) and Congestive Heart Failure (CHF), as the two groups represent different cases of Normal Sinus Rhythm (NSR). In addition to this, nonlinear algorithms are also applied to investigate the internal dynamics of Atrial Fibrillation (AFib). Application of nonlinear tools in normal and diseased cardiovascular states manifest their strong ability to support clinical decision support systems and highlights the internal complex properties of physiological time series data such as complexity, irregularity, determinism and recurrence trends in cardiovascular regulation mechanisms.

AbstractPhysiological studies have found that the autonomic nervous system plays an important role in controlling blood pressure values. This paper, based on machine learning approaches, analysed short-term heart rate variability to determine differences in autonomic nervous function between hypertensive patients and normal population. The electrocardiogram (ECG) of hypertensive patients are 137 ECG recordings provided by Smart Health for Assessing the Risk of Events via ECG (SHAREE database). The RR intervals of healthy subjects include the data of 18 subjects from the MIT-BIH Normal Sinus Rhythm Database (nsrdb) and 54 subjects from the Normal Sinus Rhythm RR Interval Database (nsr2db). In this paper, each RR segment includes continuous 500 beats. Seventeen features were extracted to distinguish the hypertensive heart beat rhythms from the normal ones, and Kolmogorov-Smirnov test and sequential backward selection (SBS) were applied to get the best feature combinations. In addition, support vector machine (SVM), k-nearest neighbor (KNN) and random forest (RF) were applied as classifiers in the study. The performance of each classifier was evaluated independently using the leave-one-subject-out validation method. The best predictive model was based on RF and enabled to identify hypertensive patients by five features with an accuracy of 86.44%. The best five HRV features are sample entropy (SampEn), very low frequency spectral powers (VLF), root mean square of successful differences (RMSSD), ratio of low frequency spectral powers and high frequency spectral powers (LF/HF) and vector angle index (VAI). The results of the study show sympathetic overactivity and decreased parasympathetic tone in hypertensive patients.

Objective. Cardiovascular diseases generate the highest mortality in the globe population, mainly due to coronary artery disease (CAD) like arrhythmia, myocardial infarction and heart failure. Therefore, an early identification of CAD and diagnosis is essential. For this, we have proposed a new approach to detect the CAD patients using heart rate variability (HRV) signals. This approach is based on subspaces decomposition of HRV signals using multiscale wavelet packet (MSWP) transform and entropy features extracted from decomposed HRV signals. The detection performance was analyzed using Fisher ranking method, generalized discriminant analysis (GDA) and binary classifier as extreme learning machine (ELM). The ranking strategies designate rank to the available features extracted by entropy methods from decomposed heart rate variability (HRV) signals and organize them according to their clinical importance. The GDA diminishes the dimension of ranked features. In addition, it can enhance the classification accuracy by picking the best discerning of ranked features. The main advantage of ELM is that the hidden layer does not require tuning and it also has a fast rate of detection.Methodology. For the detection of CAD patients, the HRV data of healthy normal sinus rhythm (NSR) and CAD patients were obtained from  a standard database. Self recorded data as normal sinus rhythm (Self_NSR) of healthy subjects were also used in this work. Initially, the HRV time-series was decomposed to 4 levels using MSWP transform. Sixty two features were extracted from decomposed HRV signals by non-linear methods for HRV analysis, fuzzy entropy (FZE) and Kraskov nearest neighbour entropy (K-NNE). Out of sixty-two features, 31 entropy features were extracted by FZE and 31 entropy features were extracted by K-NNE method. These features were selected since every feature has a different physical premise and in this manner concentrates and uses HRV signals information in an assorted technique. Out of 62 features, top ten features were selected, ranked by a ranking method called as Fisher score. The top ten features were applied to the proposed model, GDA with Gaussian or RBF kernal + ELM having hidden node as sigmoid or multiquadric. The GDA method transforms top ten features to only one feature and ELM has been used for classification.Results. Numerical experimentations were performed on the combination of datasets as NSR-CAD and Self_NSR- CAD subjects. The proposed approach has shown better performance using top ten ranked entropy features. The GDA with RBF kernel + ELM having hidden node as multiquadric method and GDA with Gaussian kernel + ELM having hidden node as sigmoid or multiquadric method achieved an approximate detection accuracy of 100% compared to ELM and linear discriminant analysis (LDA)+ELM for both datasets. The subspaces level-4 and level-3 decomposition of HRV signals by MSWP transform can be used for detection and analysis of CAD patients.
