| dc.description.abstract | Advancements in digital communications that permit remote patient visits and condition monitoring can be attributed to a revolution in digital healthcare systems. Continuous authentication based on contextual information offers a number of advantages over traditional authentication, including the ability to estimate the likelihood that the users are who they claim to be on an ongoing basis over the course of an entire session, making it a much more effective security measure for proactively regulating authorized access to sensitive data. Current authentication models that rely on machine learning have their shortcomings, such as the difficulty in enrolling new users to the system or model training sensitivity to imbalanced datasets. To address these issues, we propose using ECG signals, which are easily accessible in digital healthcare systems, for authentication through an Ensemble Siamese Network (ESN) that can handle small changes in ECG signals. Adding preprocessing for feature extraction to this model can result in superior results. We trained this model on ECG-ID and PTB benchmark datasets, achieving 93.6% and 96.8% accuracy and 1.76% and 1.69% equal error rates, respectively. The combination of data availability, simplicity, and robustness makes it an ideal choice for smart healthcare and telehealth. | en_US |
