Resumen
Globally, A leading cause of death is heart disease and a serious public health concern. The anomalies in heart sound appears before the heart disease symptoms. The sounds are type of auscultation, which is a process dealing with sounds in a body that generates due to mechanical vibrations of organs, Auscultation is a potential method in medical science to detect abnormalities in heart sounds and in case of suspicion The patient follows up with a referral for other evaluations, such as an electrocardiogram. In medical sciences early detection of symptoms are of major importance, this research work is a good step toward the detection of abnormalities in heart before symptom appearing by processing the phonocardiogram (PCG) signal. In this paper PCG signals are classified by utilizing the features of Mel frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCC) through Cartesian Genetic Programming - Artificial Network (CGP-ANN) Classifier. The diagnostic accuracy of proposed methodology is found 99.50% which is more than other classifiers like Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). The accuracy of model as compared to other models can prove the performance superiority of the proposed system.
