Uncertainty Quantification in Machine Learning for Biosignal
  Applications -- A Review
Ivo Pascal de Jong Andreea Ioana Sburlea Matias Valdenegro-Toro
Uncertainty Quantification (UQ) has gained traction in an attempt to fix the
black-box nature of Deep Learning. Specifically (medical) biosignals such as
electroencephalography (EEG), electrocardiography (ECG), electroocculography
(EOG) and electromyography (EMG) could benefit from good UQ, since these suffer
from a poor signal to noise ratio, and good human interpretability is pivotal
for medical applications and Brain Computer Interfaces. In this paper, we
review the state of the art at the intersection of Uncertainty Quantification
and Biosignal with Machine Learning. We present various methods, shortcomings,
uncertainty measures and theoretical frameworks that currently exist in this
application domain. Overall it can be concluded that promising UQ methods are
available, but that research is needed on how people and systems may interact
with an uncertainty model in a (clinical) environment.
