A GENERATIVE MODEL FOR DEEP FAKE AUGMENTATION OF PHONOCARDIOGRAM AND ELECTROCARDIOGRAM SIGNALS USING LSGAN AND CYCLE GAN

In order to diagnose a range of cardiac conditions, it is important to conduct an accurate evaluation of either phonocardiogram (PCG) and electrocardiogram (ECG) data. Artificial intelligence and machine learning-based computer-assisted diagnostics are becoming increasingly commonplace in modern medicine, assisting clinicians in making life-or-death decisions. The requirement for an enormous amount of information for training to establish the framework for a deep learning-based technique is an empirical challenge in the field of medicine. This increases the risk of personal information being misused. As a direct result of this issue, there has been an explosion in the study of methods for creating synthetic patient data. Researchers have attempted to generate synthetic ECG or PCG readings. To balance the dataset, ECG data were first created on the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database using LS GAN and Cycle GAN. Next, using VGGNet, studies were conducted to classify arrhythmias for the synthesized ECG signals. The synthesized signals performed well and resembled the original signal and the obtained precision of 91.20%, recall of 89.52% and an F1 score of 90.35%.
