Abstract
Machine learning (ML) methods have seen an explosion in their development and application. They are increasingly being used in many different fields with considerable success. However, although the interest is growing, their impact in the field of electrocardiographic imaging (ECGI) remains limited. One of the main reasons that ML has yet to become more prevalent in ECGI is that the published literature is scattered and there is no common ground description and comparison of these methods in an ML framework. Here we address this limitation with a review of ECGI methods from the perspective of ML. We will use probabilistic modeling to provide a common ground framework to compare different methods and well known approaches. Finally, we will discuss which approaches have been used to do inference on these models and which alternatives could be utilized as the methods in ML become more mature.
