  • A novel framework is proposed, which is based on wavelet representations and deep recurrent neural networks (DRNNs) for recognising three heart sounds, i.e., normal, mild, and severe on HSS corpus.

Outline

  1. Wavelet+GRU
  2. Results

1. Wavelet+GRU

1.1. Wavelet

‘coif3’ is selected as the wavelet type for extracting wavelet energy features (WEFs) (dimension: 287) from 7 decomposition levels.

1.2. GRU

The DRNN model is the GRU model with three hidden layers (512–256–128).

2. Results

Confusion matrix

As seen above, the model has an excellent performance for recognising the mild class.

  • However, its capacity in classifying normal, and severe needs to be improved. In particular, it is difficult for the current model to distinguish normal and mild, or severe and mild.
