    Abstract: The invention relates to a method comprising receiving a set of input samples, said set of input images comprising real images and generated images; extracting a set of feature maps from multiple layers of a pre-trained neural network for both the real images and the generated images; determining statistics for each feature map of the set of feature maps; comparing statistics of the feature maps for the real images to statistics of the feature maps for the generated images by using a distance function to obtain a vector of distances; and averaging the distances of the vector of distances to have a value indicating a diversity of the generated images. The invention also relates to technical equipment for implementing the method.

    Abstract: An approach is provided for synchronizing an impedance cardiography (“ICG”) measurement period with an electrocardiography (“ECG”) signal to reduce patient (105) auxiliary current. The approach involves measuring an ECG signal of a patient via an ECG device (103). The approach also involves processing the ECG signal to cause, at least in part, a detection of one or more ECG features of the signal. The approach further involves synchronizing a start, a stop, or a combination thereof of a measurement of an ICG signal of the patient via an ICG device (101) based, at least in part, on the detection of the one or more ECG features. The measurement of the ICG signal includes injecting an electrical current into the patient (105) for a duration of the measurement.
