System and method for machine-learning-based atrial fibrillation detection
First Claim
1. A system for machine-learning-based atrial fibrillation detection with the aid of a digital computer, comprising:
- a database operable to maintain a plurality of electrocardiography (ECG) features and annotated patterns of the features, at least some of the patterns associated with atrial fibrillation;
at least one server interconnected to the database, the at least one server configured to;
train a classifier based on the annotated patterns in the database;
receive a representation of an ECG signal recorded by an ambulatory monitor recorder during a plurality of temporal windows;
detect a plurality of the ECG features in at least some of the portions of the representation falling within each of the temporal windows;
use the trained classifier to identify patterns of the ECG features within one or more of the portions of the ECG signal;
for each of the portions, calculate a value indicative of whether the portion of the representation within that ECG signal is associated the patient experiencing atrial fibrillation;
calculate a further value indicative of whether the portion of the representation within that ECG signal is associated with the patient not experiencing atrial fibrillation;
compare the further value to the value;
determine that the portion of the ECG signal is associated with the patient experiencing atrial fibrillation based on the comparison; and
take an action based on the determination that the portion of the ECG signal is associated with the patient experiencing atrial fibrillation.

Abstract
A system and method for machine-learning based atrial fibrillation detection are provided. A database is maintained that is operable to maintain a plurality of ECG features and annotated patterns of the features. At least one server is configured to: train a classifier based on the annotated patterns in the database; receive a representation of an ECG signal recorded by an ambulatory monitor recorder during a plurality of temporal windows; detect a plurality of the ECG features in at least some of the portions of the representation falling within each of the temporal windows; use the trained classifier to identify patterns of the ECG features within one or more of the portions of the ECG signal; for each of the portions, calculate a score indicative of whether the portion of the representation within that ECG signal is associated the patient experiencing atrial fibrillation; and take an action based on the score.
