OBJECTIVE: Spirometry, as the gold standard approach in the diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), has strict end of test (EOT) criteria (e.g. complete exhalation), which cannot be met by patients with compromised health states. T...
OBJECTIVE: Obstructive sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) events, unlike central events, are associated with increased respiratory effort. Esophageal pressure (P ) monitoring is the gold standard for measuring respiratory effort, but it is typically po...
OBJECTIVE: Intracranial pressure (ICP) is an important and established clinical measurement that is used in the management of severe acute brain injury. ICP waveforms are usually triphasic and are susceptible to artifact because of transient catheter...
OBJECTIVE: We aim to provide an algorithm for the detection of myocardial infarction that operates directly on ECG data without any preprocessing and to investigate its decision criteria.
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this paper is to provide an algorithm for accurate, automated detection of atrial fibrillation (AF) from ECG signals. Four types of ECG signals are considered: normal signals, signals representing symptoms of AF, other sig...
OBJECTIVE: This study classifies sleep stages from a single lead electrocardiogram (ECG) using beat detection, cardiorespiratory coupling in the time-frequency domain and a deep convolutional neural network (CNN).
OBJECTIVE: Deep classification networks have been one of the predominant methods for classifying heart sound recordings. To satisfy their demand for sample size, the most commonly used method for data augmentation is that which divides each heart sou...
OBJECTIVE: Sleep quality helps to reflect on the physical and mental condition, and efficient sleep stage scoring promises considerable advantages to health care. The aim of this study is to propose a simple and efficient sleep classification method ...
OBJECTIVE: Atrial fibrillation is a common type of heart rhythm abnormality caused by a problem with the heart's electrical system. Early detection of this disease has important implications for stroke prevention and management. Our objective is to c...
OBJECTIVE: Electrocardiography is the most common tool to diagnose cardiovascular diseases. Annotation, segmentation and rhythm classification of ECGs are challenging tasks, especially in the presence of atrial fibrillation and other arrhythmias. Our...
