This study documents our efforts to provide computer support for the diagnosis of congestive heart failure (CHF). That computer support takes the form of an index value. A high index value indicates a low probability of CHF, and an index value below a threshold of 25.6 suggests a high probability of CHF. To create that index, we have designed a sophisticated algorithm chain which takes electrocardiogram signals as input. The signals are pre-processed before they are sent to a range of nonlinear feature extraction algorithms. The top 10 feature extraction methods were used to create the CHF index. By using objective feature extraction algorithms, we avoid the problem of inter- and intra-observer variability. We observed that the nonlinear feature extraction methods reflect the nature of the human heart very well. That observation is based on the fact that the nonlinear features achieved low [Formula: see text]-values and high feature ranking criterion scores.

SUMMARY Kernel principal components (KPC) and kernel discriminant coordinates (KDC), which are the extensions of principal components and discriminant coordinates, respectively, from a linear domain to a nonlinear domain via the kernel trick, are two very popular nonlinear feature extraction methods. The kernel discriminant coordinates space has proven to be a very powerful space for pattern recognition. However, further study shows that there are still drawbacks in this method. To improve the performance of pattern recognition, we propose a new learning algorithm combining the advantages of KPC and KDC
