There is a need for early diagnosis and risk stratification toimplement an overall risk management strategy. Presently, the conventional method is not suitable for large-scalescreening. The primary aim of this study is to develop an automated diagnostic system that uses Photoplethysmogram (PPG) signals for the non-invasive diagnosis of hypertension and DM-II. The proposed model usesa statistical feature extracted by decomposing the PPG signal up to level 11 into a sub-band using Discrete wavelettransform (DWT), and a variety of classifiers are used for the classification of hypertension and detection of DM-IIpatients. Three feature selection techniques used are Spearman correlation, ReliefF and Minimum RedundancyMaximum Relevance (mRMR) to select 20 top features out of 130 features using correlation with systole bloodpressure (SBP), diastole blood pressure (DBP) values and D-II. The highest accuracy attained by the Adaptiveneural fuzzy system (ANFIS) for classification categories such as normal (NT) vs prehypertension(PHT), NT vs.hypertension type 1 (HT-I), NT vs hypertension type 2 (HT-II) in terms of F1 score are 92.%, 98.5%, 98.3% (SBP)and 83.1%, 95.6%, 86.8% (DBP),respectively. The accuracy achieved by the adaptive-network-based fuzzyinference system (ANFIS) for the classification of normal (non-diabetic) vs. diabetic patients is 99.1%. The hybridlearning algorithm-based classifier achieved higher accuracy for hypertension risk stratification as compared tothe hard computing classifier, which requires parameter tuning and DWT decomposition is robust to the noisysignal, overcoming the limitation of the morphological feature-based model.展开更多
