An Interpretable Hand-Crafted Feature-Based Model for Atrial Fibrillation Detection.

Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is the most common type of cardiac arrhythmia. Early diagnosis of AF helps to improve therapy and prognosis. Machine Learning (ML) has been successfully applied to improve the effectiveness of Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CADx) systems for AF detection.

Self-similar anisotropic texture analysis: the hyperbolic wavelet transform contribution.

Textures in images can often be well modeled using self-similar processes while they may simultaneously display anisotropy. The present contribution thus aims at studying jointly selfsimilarity and anisotropy by focusing on a specific classical class of Gaussian anisotropic selfsimilar processes. It will be first shown that accurate joint estimates of the anisotropy and selfsimilarity parameters are performed by replacing the standard 2D-discrete wavelet transform with the hyperbolic wavelet transform, which permits the use of different dilation factors along the horizontal and vertical axes.
