Objective: A pulse waveform is regarded as an information carrier of the cardiovascular system, which contains multiple interactive cardiovascular parameters reflecting physio-pathological states of bodies. Hence, multiple parameter analysis is increasingly meaningful to date but still cannot be easily achieved one by one due to the complex mapping between waveforms. This paper describes a new analysis method based on waveform recognition aimed for extracting multiple cardiovascular parameters to monitor public health. The objective of this new method is to deduce multiple cardiovascular parameters for a target pulse waveform based on waveform recognition to a most similar reference waveform in a given database or pattern library. Methods: The first part of the methodology includes building the sub-pattern libraries and training classifier. This provides a trained classifier and the sub-pattern library with reference pulse waveforms and known parameters. The second part is waveform analysis. The target waveform will be classified and output a state category being used to select the corresponding sub-pattern library with the same state. This will reduce subsequent recognition scope and computation costs. The mainstay of this new analysis method is improved dynamic time warping (DTW). This improved DTW and K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) were applied to recognize the most similar waveform in the pattern library. Hence, cardiovascular parameters can be assigned accordingly from the most similar waveform in the pattern library. Results: Four hundred and thirty eight (438) randomly selected pulse waveforms were tested to verify the effectiveness of this method. The results show that the classification accuracy is 96.35%. Using statistical analysis to compare the target sample waveforms and the recognized reference ones from within the pattern library, most correlation coefficients are beyond 0.99. Each set of cardiovascular parameters was assessed using the Bland-Altman plot. The extracted cardiovascular parameters are in strong agreement with the original verifying the effectiveness of this new approach. Conclusion: This new method using waveform recognition shows promising results that can directly extract multiple cardiovascular parameters from waveforms with high accuracy. This new approach is efficient and effective and is very promising for future continuous monitoring of cardiovascular health.
