“…This research labeled our features according to the COVID 19 and Normal person data pool. To obtain vital information to predict the heart conditions and ailments, we used feature selection to get the essential features to train our classification algorithms and derive the desired results [34]. We selected the features using three measures to get helpful information to train our model to predict Covid 19 patients and Normal persons.…”

Since the outbreak of coronavirus also known as COVID-19, there have been several studies on the disease. This study investigates patients' electrocardiography (ECG) properties for an accurate prediction of this infectious disease. Our findings will be useful to medical practitioners in the accurate prognosis of COVID-19. We analyzed ECG datasets of patients who had tested positive for COVID-19 and Normal Persons who had tested negative. Using the analyzed dataset, we designed, developed, and evaluated twelve machine-learning models to predict COVID-19 with different combinations of learning algorithms and feature engineering techniques. Time, frequency, and time-frequency domain features were extracted using Time Series Feature Extraction Library (TSFEL). A combination of domains' features comprising of Time, Frequency, and Time-Frequency attributes for prediction was also investigated. We deployed a T-test to determine the necessary and enough features for our predictive modeling. The ECG morphological features analysis was based on peak-to-peak detection, onset, and offset of the QRS complex. K-nearest neighbors (KNN), Random Forest, and Support Vector Machine (SVM) learning algorithms were deployed to classify the ECG signals for the prediction of COVID-19. For each feature domain, the Shapley Additive Explanations (SHAP) visualization tool was used to 'open' the black box for explainability and interpretability of feature weights and importance. SHAP's result suggests that extracted feature weight distribution in different algorithms shows consistency in feature importance per domain. However, the weight and the proportion are not the same. Performance evaluation of our classifiers was based on accuracy, sensitivity, precision, and F1 score. Our experimental results show that the classification encompassing all domain features (Temporal, Spectral, and wavelet) with Random Forest has a slight edge over other models. The proposed model has accuracy, sensitivity, precision, and F1 score of 97.09%, 98%, 97%, and 97%, respectively. COVID-19 continues to pose a threat to our world with its constant mutation, we believe that a study on its accurate prediction is critical for an effective universal mitigation strategy.
