Deep denoising autoencoder-based non-invasive blood flow detection for arteriovenous fistula

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The paper presents a deep denoising autoencoder (DAE) approach for non‑invasive detection of blood flow in arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) using waveform data processed by a one‑level discrete wavelet transform. The DAE performs dimensionality reduction and reconstruction, producing a latent representation that achieves 93% accuracy in detecting AVF dysfunction and 92% accuracy in identifying patient‑specific characteristics. Lightweight versions of the model can maintain performance on less powerful devices, indicating practical applicability for routine AVF monitoring.

Atrial Fibrillation Detection with Arbitrary Leads via a Codebook-Based Reconstruction-Classification Framework

The paper introduces DCGCNet, a dual-codebook graph collaborative network that jointly reconstructs ECG signals and classifies atrial fibrillation. It incorporates a local‑global contrastive module for noise‑invariant feature learning and an adaptive codebook vector quantizer to prevent codebook collapse. The model achieves state‑of‑the‑art intra‑dataset performance and consistently attains AUC > 0.98 across seven cross‑dataset settings, even under realistic noisy conditions.

Physics-Informed Hemodynamic Modeling for Data-Free Prediction and Sparse-Data Assimilation

The paper introduces a physics-informed deep learning framework that reconstructs 3D coronary geometry from dual-view angiography and predicts velocity and pressure fields using a decoupled network with embedded physical priors. Across 32 patients and four flow conditions, the model achieved a trans‑stenotic pressure‑drop error of 2.02% and velocity/pressure relative‑L2 errors of 0.054 and 0.023, respectively, while matching hospital‑measured FFR with 93.8% diagnostic accuracy. The pipeline completes the full angiography‑to‑hemodynamics conversion in about 20 minutes per patient and supports sparse‑data assimilation for revascularization planning.

Attention-guided super-resolution of 4D flow MRI in carotid arteries

The paper presents a deep learning super‑resolution framework for 4D flow MRI of carotid arteries, using convolutional block attention modules to focus on clinically relevant spatial features and reduce noise. Trained on 120 patients with 240 stenosed carotid arteries, the model leverages patient‑specific CFD simulations as high‑resolution ground truth. Results show a significant reduction in RMSE and improved reconstruction of complex flow patterns compared to a baseline without attention.

BEAT-Net: Injecting Biomimetic Spatio-Temporal Priors for Interpretable ECG Diagnosis

BEAT-Net is a supervised biomimetic framework for ECG diagnosis that incorporates QRS-centered tokenization and a hierarchical architecture mirroring a cardiologist’s workflow. It processes heartbeat sequences through morphological, spatial, temporal, and transformer-based stages, achieving an AUC of 0.924 on large benchmarks while using only 0.7 million parameters. The model outperforms the 39.5‑million‑parameter HeartLang foundation model on morphological form classification and demonstrates superior cross‑dataset generalization with only 35% of the training data.

Graph-Based Pseudo-multimodal Contrastive Learning for 12-Lead ECG Representations

The paper introduces Graph-CMMC, a graph-based pseudo‑multimodal contrastive learning framework for 12‑lead ECG representations. It transforms ECG waveforms into Gramian Angular Difference Field (GADF) images to create complementary views, then aligns these views while modeling inter‑lead dependencies with a graph module. Experiments on coronary artery occlusion classification show that Graph-CMMC performs competitively with supervised methods, highlighting the value of GADF representations and explicit graph modeling for robust ECG analysis.
