This paper proposes a new power spectral-based hybrid genetic algorithm-support vector machines (SVMGA) technique to classify five types of electrocardiogram (ECG) beats, namely normal beats and four manifestations of heart arrhythmia. This method employs three modules: a feature extraction module, a classification module and an optimization module. Feature extraction module extracts electrocardiogram's spectral and three timing interval features. Non-parametric power spectral density (PSD) estimation methods are used to extract spectral features. Support vector machine (SVM) is employed as a classifier to recognize the ECG beats. We investigate and compare two such classification approaches. First they are specified experimentally by the trial and error method. In the second technique the approach optimizes the relevant parameters through an intelligent algorithm. These parameters are: Gaussian radial basis function (GRBF) kernel parameter σ and C penalty parameter of SVM classifier. Then their performances in classification of ECG signals are evaluated for eight files obtained from the MIT–BIH arrhythmia database. Classification accuracy of the SVMGA approach proves superior to that of the SVM which has constant and manually extracted parameter.
