description |
Heart sounds analysis can provide lots of information about heart condition
whether it is normal or abnormal. Heart sounds signals are time-varying signals
where they exhibit some degree of non-stationary. Due to these characteristics,
therefore, two techniques have been proposed to analyze them. The first technique is
the Time-Frequency Distribution using B-Distribution, used to resolve signal's
components in the time-frequency domain and specifies the frequency components
of the signal that changing over time. Another proposed technique is the Mel-
Frequency Cepstrum Coefficient, used to obtain the cepstrums coefficients by
resolving signal's components in the frequency domain. An experiment is presented
to extract features of heart sounds using both mentioned techniques and compare
their performances. Both techniques are discussed in details and tested against ideal
simulations of 50 heart sound signals including normal and abnormal signals. All
simulations are done using Matlab software except for MFCC where it has used the
Microsoft Visual C++ software. A brief description of SVD is included to the
technique using time-frequency distribution. Also, a brief description of Neural
Network is used to verify and to compare the performances results of the two
techniques with regard to the values of hidden node, learning rate and momentum
coefficient. The results showed that performance of the TFD can be achieved up to
90% whereas MFCC is only 80%. Therefore, the TFD technique is chosen as the
best technique to analyze and to extract features of the non-stationary signals such as
the heart sounds signals. |
