To localize the unusual cardiac activities non-invasively, one has to build a prior forward model that relates the heart, torso, and detectors. This model has to be constructed to mathematically relate the geometrical and functional activities of the heart. Several methods are available to model the prior sources in the forward problem, which results in the lead field matrix generation.

Background Electrical activity underlying the T-wave is less well understood than the QRS-complex. This study investigated the relationship between normal T-wave morphology and the underlying ventricular repolarization gradients using the equivalent dipole layer (EDL). Methods Body-surface-potential-maps (BSPM, 67‑leads) were obtained in nine normal cases.

The resolution of the inverse problem of electrocardiography represents a major interest in the diagnosis and catheter-based therapy of cardiac arrhythmia. In this context, the ability to simulate several cardiac electrical behaviors was crucial for evaluating and comparing the performance of inversion methods. For this application, existing models are either too complex or do not produce realistic cardiac patterns.

Chronic kidney disease patients have a decreased ability to maintain normal electrolyte concentrations in their blood, which increases the risk for ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. Non-invasive monitoring of serum potassium and calcium concentration, [K] and [Ca], can help to prevent arrhythmias in these patients. Electrocardiogram (ECG) markers that significantly correlate with [K] and [Ca] have been proposed, but these relations are highly variable between patients.

We introduce Branched Latent Neural Maps (BLNMs) to learn finite dimensional input-output maps encoding complex physical processes. A BLNM is defined by a simple and compact feedforward partially-connected neural network that structurally disentangles inputs with different intrinsic roles, such as the time variable from model parameters of a differential equation, while transferring them into a generic field of interest. BLNMs leverage latent outputs to enhance the learned dynamics and break the curse of dimensionality by showing excellent in-distribution generalization properties with small training datasets and short training times on a single processor.
