Deep Transfer Learning for Physiological Signals
2020
Deep learning is increasingly common in healthcare, yet transfer learning for physiological signals (e.g., temperature, heart rate, etc.) is under-explored. Here, we present a straightforward, yet performant framework for transferring knowledge about physiological signals. Our framework is called PHASE (PHysiologicAl Signal Embeddings). It i) learns deep embeddings of physiological signals and ii) predicts adverse outcomes based on the embeddings. PHASE is the first instance of deep transfer learning in a cross-hospital, cross-department setting for physiological signals. We show that PHASE's per-signal (one for each signal) LSTM embedding functions confer a number of benefits including improved performance, successful transference between hospitals, and lower computational cost.
