Cardiovascular disease (CVD) continues to be the major cause of death globally, calling for predictive models that not only handle diverse and high-dimensional biomedical signals but also maintain interpretability and privacy. We create a…
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is one of the most severe manifestation of coronary artery disease. ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is the most serious type of AMI. We proposed to develop a machine learning algorithm…
Stroke is the second leading cause of death worldwide. Machine learning classification algorithms have been widely adopted for stroke prediction. However, these algorithms were evaluated using different datasets and evaluation metrics.…
We present algorithms for the detection of a class of heart arrhythmias with the goal of eventual adoption by practicing cardiologists. In clinical practice, detection is based on a small number of meaningful features extracted from the…
The electrocardiogram (ECG) is routinely used in hospitals to analyze cardiovascular status and health of an individual. Abnormal heart rhythms can be a precursor to more serious conditions including sudden cardiac death. Classifying…
Early detection of patients vulnerable to infections acquired in the hospital environment is a challenge in current health systems given the impact that such infections have on patient mortality and healthcare costs. This work is focused on…
In electronic health records (EHRs), clustering patients and distinguishing disease subtypes are key tasks to elucidate pathophysiology and aid clinical decision-making. However, clustering in healthcare informatics is still based on…
Optimization has been an important factor and topic of interest in training deep learning models, yet less attention has been given to how we select the optimizers we use to train these models. Hence, there is a need to dive deeper into how…
We review some of the latest approaches to analysing cardiac electrophysiology data using machine learning and predictive modelling. Cardiac arrhythmias, particularly atrial fibrillation, are a major global healthcare challenge. Treatment…
To overcome the limitations of manual administrative coding in geriatric Cardiovascular Risk Management, this study introduces an automated classification framework leveraging unstructured Electronic Health Records (EHRs). Using a dataset…
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are one of the most common chronic illnesses that affect peoples health. Early detection of CVDs can reduce mortality rates by preventing or reducing the severity of the disease. Machine learning algorithms…
Nowadays, an increasing number of people are being diagnosed with cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), the leading cause of death globally. The gold standard for identifying these heart problems is via electrocardiogram (ECG). The standard…
This study proposed a hybrid model of a convolutional neural network (CNN) and a Transformer to predict and diagnose heart disease. Based on CNN's strength in detecting local features and the Transformer's high capacity in sensing global…
Cardiovascular diseases, a leading cause of noncommunicable disease-related deaths, require early and accurate detection to improve patient outcomes. Taking advantage of advances in machine learning and deep learning, multiple approaches…
Determining phenotypes of diseases can have considerable benefits for in-hospital patient care and to drug development. The structure of high dimensional data sets such as electronic health records are often represented through an embedding…
Worldwide, many millions of people die suddenly and unexpectedly each year, either with or without a prior history of cardiovascular disease. Such events are sparse (once in a lifetime), many victims will not have had prior investigations…
Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death globally, underscoring the need for effective, accessible monitoring solutions, particularly through wearable devices that enable continuous, real-time tracking of heart rhythms in…
We report on a method that classifies heart beats according to a set of 13 classes, including cardiac arrhythmias. The method localises the QRS peak complex to define each heart beat and uses a neural network to infer the patterns…
Background --The objective of this study was to examine the association of routine blood test results with coronary heart disease (CHD) risk, to incorporate them into coronary prediction models and to compare the discrimination properties…
Electrocardiogram (ECG) is the most frequent and routine diagnostic tool used for monitoring heart electrical signals and evaluating its functionality. The human heart can suffer from a variety of diseases, including cardiac arrhythmias.…
