Reconstruction of 3-Axis Seismocardiogram from Right-to-left and Head-to-foot Components Using A Long Short-Term Memory Network
share
This pilot study aims to develop a deep learning model for predicting seismocardiogram (SCG) signals in the dorsoventral direction from the SCG signals in the right-to-left and head-to-foot directions (SCG_x and SCG_y). The dataset used for the training and validation of the model was obtained from 15 healthy adult subjects. The SCG signals were recorded using tri-axial accelerometers placed on the chest of each subject. The signals were then segmented using electrocardiogram R waves, and the segments were downsampled, normalized, and centered around zero. The resulting dataset was used to train and validate a long short-term memory (LSTM) network with two layers and a dropout layer to prevent overfitting. The network took as input 100-time steps of SCG_x and SCG_y, representing one cardiac cycle, and outputted a vector that mapped to the target variable being predicted. The results showed that the LSTM model had a mean square error of 0.09 between the predicted and actual SCG segments in the dorsoventral direction. The study demonstrates the potential of deep learning models for reconstructing 3-axis SCG signals using the data obtained from dual-axis accelerometers.
