Accurate detection of cardiac arrhythmias from electrocardiograms remains challenging for rare rhythm classes due to class imbalance and morphological variability. We present a hybrid deep learning framework combining per-lead convolutional encoders with a cross-lead transformer that models relationships across different lead signals through self-attention, accepting variable lead configurations. To address minority-class scarcity, a generative adversarial network synthesizes physiologically plausible beat segments for underrepresented arrhythmias. Attention-based visualizations localize influential waveform regions aligned with clinically meaningful structures. Post-training pruning and INT8 quantization enable efficient deployment with minimal performance loss. Extensive experiments on the MIT-BIH Arrhythmia Database across sixteen heartbeat classes from two-lead recordings yield exceptional results over ten independent runs: accuracy of 99.67%, F1-score of 99.66%, and AUC of 99.8%. External validation on the ECG5000 single-lead dataset and the St Petersburg INCART twelve-lead dataset confirms robust generalizability with F1-scores of 97.6% and 98% respectively. Our framework delivers accurate, interpretable, stable, and deployable arrhythmia detection across diverse clinical settings.
Tomatoes, renowned for their extensive cultivation and economic significance, hold a pivotal position in agricultural production. This research conducts a comparative analysis of various regression models, namely RF, K-Nearest Neighbors, Support Vector Regression, Lasso Regression, and Linear Regression, evaluating their efficacy in forecasting tomato yields across diverse datasets. The assessment incorporates pivotal metrics such as Mean Absolute Error, Mean Squared Error, Root Mean Squared Error, and R2, alongside computational efficiency metrics like Fit Time (in seconds). Dataset 3 emerges as the most comprehensive and precise dataset compared to Datasets 1 and 2. Despite RF's longer computational time, it demonstrates superior predictive accuracy. Conversely, KNN and Lasso's Regression exhibit commendable performance with lower computational demands. This study aims to support informed decision-making in tomato cultivation, contributing to sustainable agriculture and refined crop yield predictions.
Stress is a major contributor to physical and mental health disorders, underscoring the need for reliable and interpretable detection systems. We present an interpretable multimodal deep learning framework that integrates electrocardiogram (ECG), electrodermal activity (EDA), and respiration signals using modality-specific neural architectures complemented by feature-based classical models. To ensure robustness and generalizability, the framework was evaluated under both subject-independent and subject-dependent protocols. Results show that multimodal fusion consistently outperformed single modalities, achieving 94.8% accuracy, 93.9% F1-score, and 0.97 AUC under subject-independent validation, compared with 86–91% accuracy for individual signals. In subject-dependent experiments, performance reached 97.2% accuracy and 96.8% F1-score. Comparative analysis with recent state-of-the-art methods demonstrated the competitiveness of our approach, while ablation studies confirmed the contribution of each modality and fusion strategy. Statistical significance testing with ( p < 0.05) further validated the reliability of these gains. Importantly, interpretability analyses using Grad-CAM and attention visualization provided physiological insights, revealing that the model emphasizes clinically meaningful regions such as ECG R-peaks and phasic EDA fluctuations. By uniting high performance, robustness, and interpretability, this work advances stress detection research and offers a physiologically grounded framework for continuous mental health monitoring.
