Why the study?
Establishing an effective deep learning model to assist physicians in early screening and identifying ECG abnormalities can improve diagnostic accuracy.
Does the alternate pooling residual network (APRN) model improve ECG classification accuracy compared to standard CNN and ResNet models in standard ECG databases?
Population

APRN may marginally improve ECG classification accuracy; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective clinical validation before adoption.
Does the alternate pooling residual network (APRN) model improve ECG classification accuracy compared to standard CNN and ResNet models in standard ECG databases?
The proposed alternate pooling residual network (APRN) model demonstrates high accuracy in classifying ECG abnormalities, outperforming standard CNN and ResNet-18 models.
