Improving generalization performance of electrocardiogram classification models.

Recently, many electrocardiogram (ECG) classification algorithms using deep learning have been proposed. Because the ECG characteristics vary across datasets owing to variations in factors such as recorded hospitals and the race of participants, the model needs to have a consistently high generalization performance across datasets. In this study, as part of the PhysioNet/Computing in Cardiology Challenge (PhysioNet Challenge) 2021, we present a model to classify cardiac abnormalities from the 12- and the reduced-lead ECGs.

Study on the use of standard 12-lead ECG data for rhythm-type ECG classification problems.

Background And Objectives: Most deep-learning-related methodologies for electrocardiogram (ECG) classification are focused on finding an optimal deep-learning architecture to improve classification performance. However, in this study, we proposed a methodology for fusion of various single-lead ECG data as training data in the single-lead ECG classification problem.

Methods: We used a squeeze-and-excitation residual network (SE-ResNet) with 152 layers as the baseline model.

The Association between Excessive Internet Gaming Behavior and Immersive Tendency, Mediated by Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Symptoms, in Korean Male University Students.

Objective: Problematic online gaming (POG) and problematic Internet use (PIU) have become a serious public mental health problem, with Internet gaming disorder (IGD) included in "Conditions for further study" section of DSM-5. Although higher immersive tendency is observed in people affected by POG, little is known about the simultaneous effect of immersive tendency and its highly comorbid mental disorder, attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). This study aimed to assess the relationship between immersive tendency, ADHD, and IGD.
