Deep Generative Models for Physiological Signals: A Systematic Literature Review

In this paper, we present a systematic literature review on deep generative models for physiological signals, particularly electrocardiogram (ECG), electroencephalogram (EEG), photoplethysmogram (PPG) and electromyogram (EMG). Compared to the existing review papers, we present the first review that summarizes the recent state-of-the-art deep generative models. By analyzing the state-of-the-art research related to deep generative models along with their main applications and challenges, this review contributes to the overall understanding of these models applied to physiological signals. Additionally, by highlighting the employed evaluation protocol and the most used physiological databases, this review facilitates the assessment and benchmarking of deep generative models.

DiffECG: A Versatile Probabilistic Diffusion Model for ECG Signals Synthesis

Within cardiovascular disease detection using deep learning applied to ECG signals, the complexities of handling physiological signals have sparked growing interest in leveraging deep generative models for effective data augmentation. In this paper, we introduce a novel versatile approach based on denoising diffusion probabilistic models for ECG synthesis, addressing three scenarios: (i) heartbeat generation, (ii) partial signal imputation, and (iii) full heartbeat forecasting. Our approach presents the first generalized conditional approach for ECG synthesis, and our experimental results demonstrate its effectiveness for various ECG-related tasks. Moreover, we show that our approach outperforms other state-of-the-art ECG generative models and can enhance the performance of state-of-the-art classifiers.

Leveraging Statistical Shape Priors in GAN-based ECG Synthesis

Electrocardiogram (ECG) data collection during emergency situations is challenging, making ECG data generation an efficient solution for dealing with highly imbalanced ECG training datasets. In this paper, we propose a novel approach for ECG signal generation using Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) and statistical ECG data modeling. Our approach leverages prior knowledge about ECG dynamics to synthesize realistic signals, addressing the complex dynamics of ECG signals. To validate our approach, we conducted experiments using ECG signals from the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database. Our results demonstrate that our approach, which models temporal and amplitude variations of ECG signals as 2-D shapes, generates more realistic signals compared to state-of-the-art GAN based generation baselines. Our proposed approach has significant implications for improving the quality of ECG training datasets, which can ultimately lead to better performance of ECG classification algorithms. This research contributes to the development of more efficient and accurate methods for ECG analysis, which can aid in the diagnosis and treatment of cardiac diseases.

Context-aware adaptation for group communication support applications with dynamic architecture

In this paper, we propose a refinement-based adaptation approach for the architecture of distributed group communication support applications. Unlike most of previous works, our approach reaches implementable, context-aware and dynamically adaptable architectures. To model the context, we manage simultaneously four parameters that influence Qos provided by the application. These parameters are: the available bandwidth, the exchanged data communication priority, the energy level and the available memory for processing. These parameters make it possible to refine the choice between the various architectural configurations when passing from a given abstraction level to the lower level which implements it. Our approach allows the importance degree associated with each parameter to be adapted dynamically. To implement adaptation, we switch between the various configurations of the same level, and we modify the state of the entities of a given configuration when necessary. We adopt the direct and mediated Producer- Consumer architectural styles and graphs for architecture modelling. In order to validate our approach we elaborate a simulation model.
