A Cardiac Implantable Medical device (IMD) is a device, which is surgically implanted into a patient's body, and wirelessly configured using an external programmer by prescribing physicians and doctors. A set of lethal attacks targeting…

Background: One of the common causes of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in young people is hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and the primary prevention of SCD is with an implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD). Concerning the incidence of…

Life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias (VA) are the leading cause of sudden cardiac death (SCD), which is the most significant cause of natural death in the US. The implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) is a small device implanted…

Arrhythmia of the heart is a dangerous and potentially fatal condition. The current widely used treatment is the implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD), but it is invasive and affects the patient's quality of life. The sonogenetic…

The purpose of this study is to optimize the selection of prophylactic cardioverter defibrillator implantation candidates. Currently, the main criterion for implantation is a low Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) whose specificity…

Myocardial infarction is a major cause of death globally, and accurate early diagnosis from electrocardiograms (ECGs) remains a clinical priority. Deep learning models have shown promise for automated ECG interpretation, but require large…

Ventricular Fibrillation is a disorganized electrical excitation of the heart that results in inadequate blood flow to the body. It usually ends in death within seconds. The most common way to treat the symptoms of fibrillation is to…

Synthetic control is a causal inference tool used to estimate the treatment effects of an intervention by creating synthetic counterfactual data. This approach combines measurements from other similar observations (i.e., donor pool ) to…

BACKGROUND. The clinical effectiveness of primary prevention implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) therapy is under debate. It is urgently needed to better identify patients who benefit from prophylactic ICD therapy. The EUropean…

Implantable Cardiac Monitor (ICM) devices are demonstrating as of today, the fastest-growing market for implantable cardiac devices. As such, they are becoming increasingly common in patients for measuring heart electrical activity. ICMs…

This work presents ReBeatICG, a real-time, low-complexity beat-to-beat impedance cardiography (ICG) delineation algorithm that allows hemodynamic parameters monitoring. The proposed procedure relies only on the ICG signal compared to most…

Virtual studies of ICD behaviour are crucial for testing device functionality in a controlled environment prior to clinical application. Although previous works have shown the viability of using in silico testing for diagnosis, there is a…

Speech recognition is an essential start ring of human-computer interaction, and recently, deep learning models have achieved excellent success in this task. However, when the model training and private data provider are always separated,…

Industrial control systems (ICS), which in many cases are components of critical national infrastructure, are increasingly being connected to other networks and the wider internet motivated by factors such as enhanced operational…

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…

International Classification of Diseases(ICD) is an authoritative health care classification system of different diseases and conditions for clinical and management purposes. Considering the complicated and dedicated process to assign…

In this paper, we propose an effective and easily deployable approach to detect the presence of stealthy sensor attacks in industrial control systems, where (legacy) control devices critically rely on accurate (and usually non-encrypted)…

The periodic signal tracking and the unknown disturbance rejection under limited communication resources are main important issues in many physical systems and practical applications. The control of such systems has some challenges such as…

For industrial control systems (ICS), many existing defense solutions focus on detecting attacks only when they make the system behave anomalously. Instead, in this work, we study how to detect attackers who are still in their hiding phase.…

Embedded devices are omnipresent in modern networks including the ones operating inside critical environments. However, due to their constrained nature, novel mechanisms are required to provide external, and non-intrusive anomaly detection.…
