Energy-Efficient Detection of Atrial Fibrillation in the Context of Resource-Restrained Devices

Kheffache, Mansour January 2019 (has links)
eHealth is a recently emerging practice at the intersection between the ICT and healthcare fields where computing and communication technology is used to improve the traditional healthcare processes or create new opportunities to provide better health services, and eHealth can be considered under the umbrella of the Internet of Things. A common practice in eHealth is the use of machine learning for a computer-aided diagnosis, where an algorithm would be fed some biomedical signal to provide a diagnosis, in the same way a trained radiologist would do. This work considers the task of Atrial Fibrillation detection and proposes a novel range of algorithms to achieve energy-efficiency. Based on our working hypothesis, that computationally simple operations and low-precision data types are key for energy-efficiency, we evaluate various algorithms in the context of resource-restrained health-monitoring wearable devices. Finally, we assess the sustainability dimension of the proposed solution.
