Automated Detection of Cannabis-Induced Alteration in Cardiac Autonomic Regulation of the Indian Paddy-Field Workers Using Empirical Mode Decomposition, Discrete Wavelet Transform and Wavelet Packet Decomposition Techniques with HRV Signals

Early detection of the dysfunction of the cardiac autonomic regulation (CAR) may help in reducing cannabis-related cardiovascular morbidities. The current study examined the occurrence of changes in the CAR activity that is associated with the consumption of bhang, a cannabis-based product. For this...

description Early detection of the dysfunction of the cardiac autonomic regulation (CAR) may help in reducing cannabis-related cardiovascular morbidities. The current study examined the occurrence of changes in the CAR activity that is associated with the consumption of bhang, a cannabis-based product. For this purpose, the heart rate variability (HRV) signals of 200 Indian male volunteers, who were categorized into cannabis consumers and non-consumers, were decomposed by Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD), Discrete Wavelet transform (DWT), and Wavelet Packet Decomposition (WPD) at different levels. The entropy-based parameters were computed from all the decomposed signals. The statistical significance of the parameters was examined using the Mann–Whitney test and <i>t</i>-test. The results revealed a significant variation in the HRV signals among the two groups. Herein, we proposed the development of machine learning (ML) models for the automatic classification of cannabis consumers and non-consumers. The selection of suitable input parameters for the ML models was performed by employing weight-based parameter ranking and dimension reduction methods. The performance indices of the ML models were compared. The results recommended the Naïve Bayes (NB) model developed from WPD processing (level 8, db02 mother wavelet) of the HRV signals as the most suitable ML model for automatic identification of cannabis users.
