• Abstract: An essential part for the accurate classification of electrocardiogram (ECG) signals is the extraction of informative yet general features, which are able to discriminate diseases. Cardiovascular abnormalities manifest themselves in features on different time scales: small scale morphological features, such as missing P-waves, as well as rhythmical features apparent on heart rate scales. For this reason we incorporate a variant of the complex wavelet transform, called a scatter transform, in a deep residual neural network (ResNet). The former has the advantage of being derived from theory, making it well behaved under certain transformations of the input. The latter has proven useful in ECG classification, allowing feature extraction and classification to be learned in an end-to-end manner. Through the incorporation of trainable layers in between scatter transforms, the model gains the ability to combine information from different channels, yielding more informative features for the classification task and adapting them to the specific domain. For evaluation, we submitted our model in the official phase in the PhysioNet/Computing in Cardiology Challenge 2020. Our (Team Triage) approach achieved a challenge validation score of 0.640, and full test score of 0.485, placing us 4th out of 41 in the official ranking.

  Existing databases for ECG delineation are small, being insufficient in size and in the array of pathological conditions they represent. This article delves has two main contributions. First, a pseudo-synthetic data generation algorithm was developed, based in probabilistically composing ECG traces given "pools" of fundamental segments, as cropped from the original databases, and a set of rules for their arrangement into coherent synthetic traces. Second, two novel segmentation-based loss functions have been developed, which attempt at enforcing the prediction of an exact number of independent structures and at producing closer segmentation boundaries by focusing on a reduced number of samples.
