• Abstract: High-quality synthetic data can support the development of effective predictive models for biomedical tasks, especially in rare diseases or when subject to compelling privacy constraints. These limitations, for instance, negatively impact open access to electrocardiography datasets about arrhythmias. This work introduces a self-supervised approach to the generation of synthetic electrocardiography time series which is shown to promote morphological plausibility. Our model (ECGAN) allows conditioning the generative process for specific rhythm abnormalities, enhancing synchronization and diversity across samples with respect to literature models. A dedicated sample quality assessment framework is also defined, leveraging arrhythmia classifiers. The empirical results highlight a substantial improvement against state-of-the-art generative models for sequences and audio synthesis.

• Generalizing electrocardiogram delineation: training convolutional neural networks with synthetic data augmentation [63.51064808536065]
  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.
