Apnea Detection Based on Hidden Markov Model Kernel

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 7015))

Abstract

This work presents a new system to diagnose the syndrome of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) that includes a specific block for the removal of Electrocardiogram (ECG) artifacts and the R wave detection. The system is modeled by ECG cepstral coefficients. The final decision is done with two different approaches. The first one is based on Hidden Markov Model (HMM), as classifier. On the other hand, another classification system is based on Support Vector Machines, being the parameterization based on the transformation of HMM by a kernel. Our results reached up to 98.67%.
