description A new architecture of deep neural networks, directed acyclic graph convolutional neural networks (DAG-CNNs), is used to classify heartbeats from electrocardiogram (ECG) signals into different subject-based classes. DAG-CNNs not only fuse the feature extraction and classification stages of the ECG classification into a single automated learning procedure, but also utilized multi-scale features and perform score-level fusion of multiple classifiers automatically. Therefore, DAG-CNN negates the necessity to extract hand-crafted features. In most of the current approaches, only the high level features which extracted by the last layer of CNN are used. Instead of performing feature level fusion manually and feeding the results into a classifier, the proposed multi-scale system can automatically learn different level of features, combine them and predict the output label. The results over the MIT-BIH arrhythmia benchmarks database demonstrate that the proposed system achieves a superior classification performance compared to most of the state-of-the-art methods.
