Abstract
The article describes a new approach to the classification of time series based on the
construction of their recurrence plots. After transforming the time series into recurrence plots,
two approaches are applied for classification. In the first case, quantitative recurrence
characteristics are used for classification as features. In the second case, the time series is
presented in the form of a black and white image of its recurrence plot. A convolutional
neural network is used as an image classifier. The data for the classification are the
electrocardiograms realizations of 100 values, which contained records of healthy people and
patients with a diagnosis of ischemia. Research results showed the advantages of classifying
images of recurrence plots, indicate a good classification accuracy in comparison with other
methods and the potential capabilities of this approach.
