The exemplified methods and systems facilitate the quantification of cardiac cycle-variability as a metric of signal quality of an acquired signal data set and the rejection, based on that quantification, of said acquired signal data set from one or more subsequent analyses that can predict and/or estimate a metric associated with the presence, non-presence, severity, and/or localization of abnormal cardiovascular conditions or disease, including, for example, but not limited to, coronary artery disease, abnormal left ventricular end-diastolic pressure disease (LVEDP), pulmonary hypertension and subcategories thereof, heart failure (HF), among others as discussed herein. The quantification of levels of cycle-variability assessed noise such as skeletal-muscle-related-signal contamination and muscle-artifact-noise contamination, and other asynchronous-noise contamination in an acquired signal can be subsequently used for the automated rejection of such asynchronous noise from measurements of biophysical signals.

Method and system for signal quality assessment and rejection using heart cycle variability

Systems and methods for the quantification of the quality of an acquired signal are provided for assessment and for gating the acquired signal for subsequent analysis. A signal is acquired, and a determination is made in real-time if there is a problem with the acquisition. If there is a problem, output is provided via the systems and methods described herein to indicate that signal acquisition needs to be performed again.

Method and system for automated quantification of signal quality

A facility providing systems and methods for discovering novel features to use in machine learning techniques. The facility receives, for a number of subjects, one or more sets of data representative of some output or condition of the subject over a period of time or capturing some physical aspect of the subject. The facility then extracts or computes values from the data and applies one or more feature generators to the extracted values. Based on the outputs of the feature generators, the facility identifies novel feature generators for use in at least one machine learning process and further mutates the novel feature generators, which can then be applied to the received data to identify additional novel feature generators.

Discovering novel features to use in machine learning techniques, such as machine learning techniques for diagnosing medical conditions

The exemplified methods and systems described herein facilitate the quantification and/or removal of asynchronous noise, such as muscle artifact noise contamination, to more accurately assess complex nonlinear variabilities in quasi-periodic biophysical-signal systems such as those in acquired cardiac signals, brain signals, etc.

Methods and systems to quantify and remove asynchronous noise in biophysical signals

A facility for identifying combinations of feature and machine learning algorithm parameters, where each combination can be combined with one or more machine learning algorithms to train a model, is disclosed. The facility evaluates each genome based on the ability of a model trained using that genome and a machine learning algorithm to produce accurate results when applied to a validation data set by, for example, generating a fitness or validation score for the trained model and the corresponding genome used to train the model. Genomes that produce fitness scores that exceed a fitness threshold are selected for mutation, mutated, and the process is repeated. These trained models can then be applied to new data to generate predictions for the underlying subject matter.
