Heart-related anomalies are among the most common causes of death worldwide. Patients are often asymptomatic until a fatal event happens, and even when they are under observation, trained personnel is needed in order to identify a heart anomaly. In t...

The diagnosis of electrocardiogram (ECG) is extremely onerous and inefficient, so it is necessary to use a computer-aided diagnosis of ECG signals. However, it is still a challenging problem to design high-accuracy ECG algorithms suitable for the med...
Most existing Electrocardiogram (ECG) classification methods assume that all arrhythmia classes are known during the training phase. In this paper, the problem of learning several successive tasks is addressed, where, in each new task, there are new ...
Subcutaneous Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillators (S-ICDs) are used for prevention of sudden cardiac death triggered by ventricular arrhythmias. T Wave Over Sensing (TWOS) is an inherent risk with S-ICDs which can lead to inappropriate shocks. A m...

Background and objectiveDetecting abnormal patterns within an electrocardiogram (ECG) is crucial for diagnosing cardiovascular diseases. We start from two unresolved problems in applying deep-learning-based ECG classification models to clinical pract...
Deep learning algorithms trained on instances that violate the assumption of being independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) are known to experience destructive interference, a phenomenon characterized by a degradation in performance. Such a v...
Arrhythmia management has been revolutionized by the ability to monitor the cardiac rhythm in a patient's home environment in real-time using high-fidelity prescription-grade and commercially available wearable electrodes. The vast amount of digitall...
BACKGROUND: Early detection and intervention is the cornerstone for appropriate treatment of arrhythmia and prevention of complications and mortality. Although diverse deep learning models have been developed to detect arrhythmia, they have been crit...
Anesthesia assessment is most important during surgery. Anesthesiologists use electrocardiogram (ECG) signals to assess the patient's condition and give appropriate medications. However, it is not easy to interpret the ECG signals. Even physicians wi...
