Abstract:Growing evidence shows that alcohol triggers paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) in some patients. However, there is a lack of methods for assessing the causality between triggers and atrial fibrillation (AF) episodes. Accordingly, this work aims to develop an approach to episode modeling under the influence of alcohol for the purpose of evaluating causality assessment methods. The alternating, bivariate Hawkes model is used to produce episode patterns, where the conditional intensity function λ 1 (t) defines… Show more
