  • Description: In this study, a novel approach for assessing congestive heart failure by using support vector machine (SVM) and relatively short-term ECG waveforms is presented. This approach only involved a simple data normalization, resampling, and repeti-tion of periodic data in order to obtain a good accuracy while still being a good general classifier. The ECG unit patterns were first consecutively extracted from the ECG signal. Then the unit patterns were inputted into a support vector machine for classification. Stacking three unit patterns obtained the most general classifier, while stacking five unit patterns achieved the best accuracy. In conclusion, by introducing an extra periodic pattern into the SVM, it is possible to both in-crease the accuracy and generality of the classifier. This makes short waveform classification possible, rather than looking at long trends.
