Deep Learning for ECG Analysis: Benchmarks and Insights from PTB-XL

This repository is accompanying our article Deep Learning for ECG Analysis: Benchmarks and Insights from PTB-XL, which builds on the PTB-XL dataset. It allows to reproduce the ECG benchmarking experiments described in the paper and to benchmark user-provided models within our framework. We also maintain a leaderboard for the described PTB-XL dataset on this page, so feel free to submit your results as PRs.

Please acknowledge our work by citing the corresponding articles listed in References below.

Setup

Install dependencies

Install the dependencies (wfdb, pytorch, torchvision, cudatoolkit, fastai, fastprogress) by creating a conda environment:

conda env create -f ecg_env.yml
conda activate ecg_env

Get data

Download and prepare the datasets (PTB-XL and ICBEB) via the follwing bash-script:

./get_datasets.sh

This script first downloads PTB-XL from PhysioNet and stores it in data/ptbxl/. Afterwards all training data from the ICBEB challenge 2018 is downloaded and temporally stored in tmp_data/. After downloading and unzipping code/utils/convert_ICBEB.py is called which stores the data in appropriate format in data/ICBEB/.

Reproduce results from the paper

Change directory: cd code and then call

python reproduce_results.py

This will perform all experiments for all models used in the paper. Depending on the executing environment, this will take up to several hours. Once finished, all trained models, predictions and results are stored in output/, where for each experiment a sub-folder is created each with data/, models/ and results/ sub-sub-folders.

Download models and results

We also provide a compressed zip-archive containing the output folder corresponding to our runs including trained models and predictions from our runs mentioned in the leaderboard below.

Benchmarking user-provided models

For creating custom benchmarking results our recommendation is as follows:

  1. create your model code/models/your_model.py which implements a standard classifier interface with fit(X_train, y_train, X_val, y_val) and predict(X)
  2. create a config file code/configs/your_configs.py with name, type and parameters (if needed)
  3. add your modeltype and model import to the cases in perform-function of code/experiments/scp_experiment.py (already added for demonstration purpose!)
  4. add your model-config to models and perform your experiment as below (adjusted code of code/reproduce_results.py):
from experiments.scp_experiment import SCP_Experiment
from configs.your_custom_configs import your_custom_config

datafolder = '../data/ptbxl/'
outputfolder = '../output/'

models = [your_custom_config]

e = SCP_Experiment('your_custom_experiment', 'diagnostic', datafolder, outputfolder, models)
e.prepare()
e.perform()
e.evaluate()

Notes on e.evaluate()

Altough we recommend to use our framework, custom evaluation of custom models is still possible via calling code.utils.utils.evaluate_experiment(y_true, y_pred, thresholds) manually with classwise thresholds.

For e.evaluate(): If the name of the experiment is exp_ICBEB classifier thresholds are needed. In any other case evaluate_experiment(y_true, y_pred) will return a dictionary with macro_auc and Fmax (both metrics are without any explicitly needed thresholds). In case of exp_ICBEB we offer two functions for computing thresholds (located in code/utils/utils.py):

  1. thresholds = utils.find_optimal_cutoff_thresholds(y_train, y_train_pred)
  2. thresholds = utils.find_optimal_cutoff_thresholds_for_Gbeta(y_train, y_train_pred)

In addition to macro_auc and Fmax evaluate_experiment(y_true, y_pred, thresholds) will return F_beta_macro and G_beta_macro as proposed in the physionet-challenge.

Notes on bootstrapping

Since bootstrapping results might take a while (even in parallel as in our code), we offer a flag for evaluation e.evaluate(bootstrap_eval=False) which just performs one single whole sample evaluation.

If you want to bootstrap your results: In each respective experiment-folder output/exp_*/ the bootstrapping ids for training, testing and validation is stored as numpy-arrays containing lists of ids. Otherwise create manually with utils.get_appropriate_bootstrap_samples(y_train, n_bootstraping_samples). For sequential evaluation of those ids, the code might look like:

if experiment_name == 'exp_ICBEB':
    thresholds = utils.find_optimal_cutoff_thresholds(y_train, y_train_pred)
else:
    thresholds = None

train_bootstrap_samples = np.array(utils.get_appropriate_bootstrap_samples(y_train, n_bootstraping_samples))
tr_df = pd.concat([utils.evaluate_experiment(y_train[ids], y_train_pred[ids], thresholds) for ids in train_bootstrap_samples])

tr_df.quantile(0.05), tr_df.mean(), tr_df.quantile(0.95)

Notes on Finetuning

In this jupyter notebook we provide a basic example of how to finetune our provided models on your custom dataset.

Leaderboard

We encourage other authors to share their results on this dataset by submitting a PR. The evaluation proceeds as described in the manuscripts: The reported scores are test set scores (fold 10) as output of the above evaluation procedure and should not be used for hyperparameter tuning or model selection. In the provided code, we use folds 1-8 for training, fold 9 as validation set and fold 10 as test set. We encourage to submit also the prediction results (preds, targs, classes saved as numpy arrays preds_x.npy and targs_x.npy and classes_x.npy) to ensure full reproducibility and to make source code and/or pretrained models available.
