Purpose Electrocardiogram (ECG) is one of the most essential tools for detecting heart problems. Till today most of the ECG records are available in paper form. It can be challenging and time-consuming to manually assess the ECG paper records. Hence, automated diagnosis and analysis are possible if we digitize such paper ECG records. Methods The proposed work aims to convert ECG paper records into a 1-D signal and generate an accurate diagnosis of heart-related problems using deep learning. Camera-captured ECG images or scanned ECG paper records are used for the proposed work. Effective pre-processing techniques are used for the removal of shadow from the images. A deep learning model is used to get a threshold value that separates ECG signal from its background and after applying various image processing techniques threshold ECG image gets converted into digital ECG. These digitized 1-D ECG signals are then passed to another deep learning model for the automated diagnosis of heart diseases into different classes such as ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), Left Bundle Branch Block (LBBB), Right Bundle Branch Block (RBBB), and T-wave abnormality. Results The accuracy of deep learning-based binarization is 97%. Further deep learning-based diagnosis approach of such digitized paper ECG records was having an accuracy of 94.4%. Conclusions The digitized ECG signals can be useful to various research organizations because the trends in heart problems can be determined and diagnosed from preserved paper ECG records. This approach can be easily implemented in areas where such expertise is not available.

Anticipating the quantity of new associated or affirmed cases with novel coronavirus ailment 2019 (COVID-19) is critical in the counteraction and control of the COVID-19 flare-up. The new associated cases with COVID-19 information were gathered from 20 January 2020 to 21 July 2020. We filtered out the countries which are converging and used those for training the network. We utilized the SARIMAX, Linear regression model to anticipate new suspected COVID-19 cases for the countries which did not converge yet. We predict the curve of non-converged countries with the help of proposed Statistical SARIMAX model (SSM). We present new information investigation-based forecast results that can assist governments with planning their future activities and help clinical administrations to be more ready for what's to come. Our framework can foresee peak corona cases with an R-Squared value of 0.986 utilizing linear regression and fall of this pandemic at various levels for countries like India, US, and Brazil. We found that considering more countries for training degrades the prediction process as constraints vary from nation to nation. Thus, we expect that the outcomes referenced in this work will help individuals to better understand the possibilities of this pandemic.
Heart-related diseases or Cardiovascular Diseases (CVDs) are the main reason for a huge number of death in the world over the last few decades and has emerged as the most life-threatening disease, not only in India but in the whole world. So, there is a need fora reliable, accurate, and feasible system to diagnose such diseases in time for proper treatment. Machine Learning algorithms and techniques have been applied to various medical datasets to automate the analysis of large and complex data. Many researchers, in recent times, have been using several machine learning techniques to help the health care industry and the professionals in the diagnosis of heart-related diseases. Heart is the next major organ comparing to the brain which has more priority in the Human body. It pumps the blood and supplies it to all organs of the whole body. Prediction of occurrences of heart diseases in the medical field is significant work. Data analytics is useful for prediction from more information and it helps the medical center to predict various diseases. A huge amount of patient-related data is maintained on monthly basis. The stored data can be useful for the source of predicting the occurrence of future diseases. Some of the data mining and machine learning techniques are used to predict heart diseases, such as Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Random Forest,and Support Vector Machine (SVM).Prediction and diagnosingof heart disease become a challenging factor faced by doctors and hospitals both in India and abroad. To reduce the large scale of deaths from heart diseases, a quick and efficient detection technique is to be discovered. Data mining techniques and machine learning algorithms play a very important role in this area. The researchers accelerating their research works to develop software with thehelp of machine learning algorithms which can help doctors to decide both prediction and diagnosing of heart disease. The main objective of this research project is to predict the heart disease of a patient using machine learning algorithms.
Clustering techniques have more importance in data mining especially when the data size is very large. It is widely used in the fields including pattern recognition system, machine learning algorithms, analysis of images, information retrieval and bio-informatics. Different clustering algorithms are available such as Expectation Maximization (EM), Cobweb, FarthestFirst, OPTICS, SimpleKMeans etc. SimpleKMeans clustering is a simple clustering algorithm. It partitions n data tuples into k groups such that each entity in the cluster has nearest mean. This paper is about the implementation of the clustering techniques using WEKA interface. This paper includes a detailed analysis of various clustering techniques with the different standard online data sets. Analysis is based on the multiple dimensions which include time to build the model, number of attributes, number of iterations, number of clusters and error rate. General TermsData mining, Clustering, WEKA interface.
