Abstract: Feature extraction and selection method as a preliminary stage of heart rate variability (HRV) signals unsupervised learning neural classifier is presented. Multi-domain, mixed new feature vector is created from time, frequency and time-frequency parameters of HRV analysis. The optimal feature set for given classification task was chosen as a result of feature ranking, obtained after computing the class separability measure for every independent feature. Such prepared a new signal representation in reduced feature space is the input to neural classifier based on introduced by Grosberg Adaptive Resonance Theory (ART2) structure. Test of proposed method carried out on the base of 62 patients with coronary artery disease divided into learning and verifying set allowed to chose these features, which gave the best results. Classifier performance measures obtained for unsupervised learning ART2 neural network was comparable with these reached for multiplayer perceptron structures.
