This paper addresses the limitations of deep learning in medical image analysis, specifically ECG interpretation, by introducing a human-like perceptual encoding technique. It tackles the issues of data inefficiency and lack of interpretability, which are crucial for clinical reliability. The study's focus on the challenging LQTS case, characterized by data scarcity and complex signal morphology, provides a strong test of the proposed method's effectiveness.
Key Takeaways
- •A perception-informed pseudo-coloring technique enhances both explainability and few-shot learning in deep neural networks for ECG analysis.
- •The method demonstrates effectiveness in the challenging LQTS case, characterized by data scarcity and complex signal morphology.
- •The approach allows models to learn from very few training examples (one-shot and few-shot learning).
- •Explainability analyses show that pseudo-coloring guides attention toward clinically meaningful ECG features.
- •The findings suggest that human-like perceptual encoding can bridge data efficiency, explainability, and causal reasoning in medical machine intelligence.
