Deep learning for ECG Arrhythmia detection and classification: an overview of progress for period 2017–2023

Cardiovascular diseases are a leading cause of mortality globally. Electrocardiography (ECG) still represents the benchmark approach for identifying cardiac irregularities. Automatic detection of abnormalities from the ECG can aid in the early detection, diagnosis, and prevention of cardiovascular diseases. Deep Learning (DL) architectures have been successfully employed for arrhythmia detection and classification and offered superior performance to traditional shallow Machine Learning (ML) approaches. This survey categorizes and compares the DL architectures used in ECG arrhythmia detection from 2017-2023 that have exhibited superior performance. Different DL models such as Convolutional Neural Networks…
