Automatic heartbeat classification via electrocardiogram (ECG) can help diagnose and prevent cardiovascular diseases in time. Many classification approaches have been proposed for heartbeat classification, based on feature extraction. However, the existing approaches face the challenges of high feature dimensions and slow recognition speeds. In this paper, we propose an efficient extreme learning machine (ELM) approach for heartbeat classification with multiple classes, based on the hybrid time-domain and wavelet time-frequency features. The proposed approach contains two sequential modules: (1) feature extraction of heartbeat signals, including RR interval features in the time-domain and wavelet time-frequency features, and (2) heartbeat classification using ELM based on the extracted features. RR interval features are calculated to reflect the dynamic characteristics of heartbeat signals. Discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is used to decompose the heartbeat signals and extract the time-frequency features of the heartbeat signals along the timeline. ELM is a single-hidden layer feedforward neural network with the hidden layer parameters randomly generated in advance and the output layer parameters calculated optimally using the least-square algorithm directly using the training samples. ELM is used as the heartbeat classification algorithm due to its high accuracy training accuracy, fast training speed, and good generalization ability. Experimental testing is carried out using the public MIT-BIH arrhythmia dataset to perform a 16-class classification. Experimental results show that the proposed approach achieves a superior classification accuracy with fast training and recognition speeds, compared with existing classification algorithms.
