Problem
Noise and disturbances hinder effective interpretation of recorded ECG signals, and existing quality indicators rely on human-defined properties.
Why it matters
Clean ECG segments are needed for reliable clinical interpretation of heart recordings.
What the AI did
An unsupervised auto-encoder derives a data-driven ECG quality indicator, compared against traditional indicators across quality assessment settings.
Results
The data-driven method performed consistently strong across tasks while traditional indicators varied strongly from task to task; no numbers stated in source.
Impact
The evidence supports that the learned indicator outperformed variable traditional indicators across tasks.
