This paper aims to make use of The Physionet Challenge 2016 collection of normal and abnormal heart sound recordings that were classified by automated identification of PCG sounds to help detect heart diseases earlier and prevent incidents. People with heart diseases have been increasing and most of them lead to fatalities so the detection of sound signals through PCGs can be applied in machine learning models by extracting features from data. In this study, the dataset’s recordings are segmented to be used in variational mode decomposition. Once they are decomposed, those means will be fused together into a set of features given to the Butterfly Optimization Algorithm which will conduct a selection of features. As the features are selected, MATLAB was used to test various machine learning algorithms. Results from Support Vector Machines (SVM) and artificial neural networks were used in this investigation (ANN). The ANN model, which had an accuracy rate of 94.8%, was the most accurate of them.
