Multimodal Arrhythmia Classification Using Deep Neural Networks
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Arrhythmias are deviations from the normal heart rhythm with impact on the cardiovascular health. Their prompt detection plays an important role in mitigating potential negative outcomes, particularly in patients in the intensive care units (ICU). The detection of arrhythmias has mainly been focused on electrocardiogram (ECG) signals. However, ICU patient mobility frequently leads to disconnection of certain ECG leads, potentially compromising the accurate arrhythmia detection. Arterial line blood pressure (ABP) and central venous pressure (CVP) signals are routinely monitored in ICU patients. Changes in the ABP and CVP suggest alterations in the haemodynamic status and cardiac function of the patients. Thus, leveraging these signals for arrhythmia detection, either independently or in conjunction with ECG data, present a viable approach to ensure that even in scenarios where ECG signals are unavailable, alarm systems alerting healthcare providers of arrhythmias remain functional. In this paper, we employ a hybrid model using long-short term memory networks (LSTM) and convolutional neural network (CNN), along with different residual CNN (ResNet) models for multimodal arrhythmia classification. When using all three channels, ResNet50 achieved the best accuracy of 99.58% on five different arrhythmia classes. The significant efficiency of utilizing ABP and CVP signals independently for the classification of arrhythmias, was also highlighted. ResNet50 was trained with ABP and CVP signals independently and correctly identified arrhythmias with an accuracy of 98.79% and 96.67%, respectively. Moreover, the same ResNet50 model was trained on the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database, achieving an accuracy, sensitivity, and precision of 98.78%, 98.77% and 98.80%, which demonstrates the scalability of the proposed model.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
