用高阶动态模态分解增强心超图像分类，准确率最高提升22%。

In this work, a data-driven, modal decomposition method, the higher order dynamic mode decomposition (HODMD), is combined with a convolutional neural network (CNN) in order to improve the classification accuracy of several cardiac diseases using echocardiography images. The HODMD algorithm is used first as feature extraction technique for the echocardiography datasets, taken from both healthy mice and mice afflicted by different cardiac diseases (Diabetic Cardiomyopathy, Obesity, TAC Hypertrophy and Myocardial Infarction). A total number of 130 echocardiography datasets are used in this work. The dominant features related to each cardiac disease were identified and represented by the HODMD algorithm as a set of DMD modes, which then are used as the input to the CNN. In a way, the database dimension was augmented, hence HODMD has been used, for the first time to the authors knowledge, for data augmentation in the machine learning framework. Six sets of the original echocardiography databases were hold out to be used as unseen data to test the performance of the CNN. In order to demonstrate the efficiency of the HODMD technique, two testcases are studied: the CNN is first trained using the original echocardiography images only, and second training the CNN using a combination of the original images and the DMD modes. The classification performance of the designed trained CNN shows that combining the original images with the DMD modes improves the results in all the testcases, as it improves the accuracy by up to 22%. These results show the great potential of using the HODMD algorithm as a data augmentation technique.
