深度神经网络通常需要大规模数据进行有效训练。在医疗领域,由于隐私问题和某些疾病罕见,获取大规模数据极具挑战。为此,本文研究了基于领域知识生成合成数据在训练深度神经网络中的有效性。我们提出一种知识驱动的高斯组合法,用于生成单导联II型心电图,每个心跳由高斯形状的P、Q、R、S、T波成分构成。利用该仿真器,生成了四种异常心电图类别:心房颤动(AF)、心房扑动(AFLT)、室性早搏(PVC)和沃尔夫-帕金森-怀特综合征(WPW)。通过十种不同的深度神经网络架构评估合成数据的实用性,结果表明,合成数据预训练可使三种异常类型的分类性能提升,其中对AFLT的平均性能提升最大,达33.2%。进一步分析显示,合成数据带来的性能增益在真实数据量较小时更为显著。这说明基于领域知识的合成心电图可作为有价值的数据预训练资源,尤其适用于真实数据有限或难以获取的场景。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) typically require extensive datasets for effective training. In the medical domain, acquiring large-scale data is often challenging due to privacy concerns and the rarity of certain diseases. To address this data scarcity, we investigate the efficacy of training DNN models using synthetic data, generated based on domain-specific medical knowledge. Specifically, we develop a knowledge-driven Gaussian-composition synthesis algorithm for single-lead II ECGs, in which each heartbeat is represented by Gaussian-shaped P, Q, R, S, and T wave components. Using this simulator, we generate synthetic data for four abnormal electrocardiogram (ECG) classes: atrial fibrillation (AF), atrial flutter (AFLT), premature ventricular complex (PVC), and Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome (WPW). We evaluate the utility of this synthetic data by conducting abnormal ECG classification using ten different DNN architectures. Our results demonstrate that synthetic-to-real training improves classification performance for three of the four target abnormalities, with the largest architecture-averaged gain of $33.2\%$ observed for AFLT. Further analysis reveals that the performance enhancement from synthetic data is more pronounced with smaller real-world datasets. These findings suggest that domain-knowledge-based synthetic ECGs can serve as a useful pre-training resource, particularly in scenarios where real-world data are limited or difficult to obtain.
