“…The types of covariates considered for the multiclass systems were OBBM [71,76,80,82], LBBM [71,76,80,82], CUSIP [76,80] for office-based setups (Table 1: row 1-5), and Electrocardiogram (ECG) [79,81,82], PCG [77], Acceleration Plethysmogram (APG) [78] signals for cardiac stress test laboratories (Table 1: row 6-9), and coronary artery calcium (CAC) for CTbased CVD models [135]. The ground truths considered for CVD risk assessment (Table 1) were death [80], coronary heart disease (CHD) [82], chronic heart conditions (CHC) [79], cardiovascular event (CVE) [76], sudden cardiac death (SCD) [72], heart failure (HF), myocardial infarction (MI) [75], coronary artery calcification (CAC) score [69], fatal/non-fatal CVD [73], joint CVD and diabetes [70]. Note that these gold standard choices along with AI attributes, scientific and clinical validations are key to preventing bias in AI.…”
