Study shows DL models trained on healthy subjects perform worse on patients' ECG data.
Electrocardiogram signals are omnipresent in medicine. A vital aspect in the analysis of this data is the identification and classification of heart beat types which is often done through automated algorithms. Advancements in neural networks and deep learning have led to a high classification accuracy. However, the fin…
Heart rate estimation from electrocardiogram signals is very important for the early detection of cardiovascular diseases.

This paper proposes a framework based on deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for automatic heart sound classification using short-segments of individual heart beats. We design a 1D-CNN that directly learns features from raw heart-sound signals, and a 2D-CNN that takes inputs of two- dimensional time-frequency fea…

Patient age is also included as a trainable embeddi…
Heart disease is the leading cause of death, and experts estimate that approximately half of all heart attacks and strokes occur in people who have not been flagged as "at risk." Thus, there is an urgent need to improve the accuracy of heart disease diagnosis. To this end, we investigate the potential of using data ana…
ECGDetect uses deep learning to detect ischemia in heart ECGs.
Heart diseases constitute a global health burden, and the problem is exacerbated by the error-prone nature of listening to and interpreting heart sounds.

However, those models a…
Automatic heart sound abnormality detection can play a vital role in the early diagnosis of heart diseases, particularly in low-resource settings.

Intricating cardiac complexities are the primary factor associated with healthcare costs and the highest cause of death rate in the world. However, preventive measures like the early detection of cardiac anomalies can prevent severe cardiovascular arrests of varying complexities and can impose a substantial impact on h…
Heart disease is one of the most common diseases in middle-aged citizens. Among the vast number of heart diseases, the coronary artery disease (CAD) is considered as a common cardiovascular disease with a high death rate. The most popular tool for diagnosing CAD is the use of medical imaging, e.g., angiography. However…
