Abstrakt: Many of the used features in sudden cardiac death (SCD) classification algorithms are based on features present in the autonomic system. However, changes in the autonomic system occur in both SCD subjects and patients with congestive heart failure (CHF). Therefore, many overlaps are observed in the features extracted from the cardiac signals of these two groups. To solve this challenge, this paper studies the changes in the multifractal dimension in patients with SCD and compares it with the subjects with CHF using the heart rate variability (HRV) signal processing. For this purpose, HRV signals are initially extracted, and their four sub-signals are determined using the empirical mode decomposition (EMD) method. Afterward, the instant amplitude of each sub-signal obtained in the previous step is calculated using the Teager energy method; thus, new signals are generated through the utilization of these instant amplitudes. Subsequently, modifications in each new signal's fractal dimensions are obtained using the multifractal detrended fluctuation analysis (MF-DFA) method. The appropriate features are selected using the t-test method and are applied to the support vector machine algorithm as input data. The proposed algorithm can differentiate the signal of SCD subjects with an average accuracy of 84.08% in 26 min prior to the event. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
