Multiscale dilated convolutional neural network for Atrial Fibrillation detection.

Atrial Fibrillation (AF), a type of heart arrhythmia, becomes more common with aging and is associated with an increased risk of stroke and mortality. In light of the urgent need for effective automated AF monitoring, existing methods often fall short in balancing accuracy and computational efficiency. To address this issue, we introduce a framework based on Multi-Scale Dilated Convolution (AF-MSD...

Can machine learning predict late seizures after intracerebral hemorrhages? Evidence from real-world data.

INTRODUCTION: Intracerebral hemorrhage represents 15 % of all strokes and it is associated with a high risk of post-stroke epilepsy. However, there are no reliable methods to accurately predict those at higher risk for developing seizures despite their importance in planning treatments, allocating resources, and advancing post-stroke seizure research. Existing risk models have limitations and have...
