Label Propagation Techniques for Artifact Detection in Imbalanced Classes using Photoplethysmogram Signals

Photoplethysmogram (PPG) signals are widely used in healthcare for monitoring vital signs, but they are susceptible to motion artifacts that can lead to inaccurate interpretations. In this study, the use of label propagation techniques to propagate labels among PPG samples is explored, particularly in imbalanced class scenarios where clean PPG samples are significantly outnumbered by artifact-contaminated samples. With a precision of 91%, a recall of 90% and an F1 score of 90% for the class without artifacts, the results demonstrate …
