Automatic Detection of Atrial Fibrillation in Cardiac Vibration Signals

---

Abstract—We present a study on the feasibility of the automatic detection of atrial fibrillation (AF) from cardiac vibration signals (ballistocardiograms/BCGs) recorded by unobtrusive bedmounted sensors. The proposed system is intended as a screening and monitoring tool in home-healthcare applications and not as a replacement for ECG-based methods used in clinical environments. Based on the BCG data recorded in a study with ten AF patients, we evaluate and rank seven popular machine learning algorithms (naive Bayes, linear and quadratic discriminant analysis, support vector machines, random forests as well as bagged and boosted trees) for their performance in separating 30-s long BCG epochs into one of three classes: sinus rhythm, AF, and artifact. For each algorithm, feature subsets of a set of statistical time-frequency-domain and time-domain features were selected based on the mutual information between features and class labels as well as the first- and second-order interactions among features. The classifiers were evaluated on a set of 856 epochs by means of tenfold cross validation. The best algorithm (random forests) achieved a Matthews correlation coefficient, mean sensitivity, and mean specificity of 0.921, 0.938, and 0.982, respectively.

Index Terms—Atrial fibrillation (AF), ballistocardiography (BCG), classification.
