Prerequisites

• Tensorflow v2.2
• Numpy
• Scikit-learn
• OpenCV
• Scipy
• Tqdm

Test

We provide the weights for CardioGAN, trained on the four public datasets mentioned above. The sample code can be used to convert PPG signals to ECG. link to download weights

Application

To develop a realtime application using our proposed method, we utilize an Empatica E4 to collect and transfer PPG to a computer. Our model then converts 4-second segments of input PPG to synthetic ECG.
