arXiv:2608. 12944v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Electrocardiography (ECG), photoplethysmography (PPG), and phonocardiography (PCG) provide complementary views of the same cardiac cycle, yet existing cardiac foundation models are trained for a single sensing modality, leaving the shared physiology across sensors unexploited.

arXiv:2608. 14763v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Assessment of ventriculomegaly (VM) on fetal brain ultrasound relies primarily on measuring lateral ventricular atrial width on standard planes, which is operator-dependent and may not fully reflect the overall ventricular enlargement.

arXiv:2606. 11125v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Blood pressure (BP) is a key marker for cardiovascular risk assessment and therapeutic decision-making, and Photoplethysmography (PPG) enables low-cost, wearable-friendly cuffless BP estimation.

arXiv:2607. 20136v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Slice-to-volume reconstruction (SVR) is the standard method for obtaining high-resolution (HR) 3D fetal brain volumes from motion-corrupted 2D MRI slice stacks acquired in multiple orientations.

arXiv:2607. 00431v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Forecasting models for health-signal digital twins must preserve the oscillatory, frequency, phase, and state-transition dynamics of physiological signals, yet the pointwise metrics used to benchmark them cannot detect when these fundamental properties are lost.

arXiv:2607. 23554v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In this paper, we propose the MAEConformer, a novel self-supervised learning framework that combines the Conformer architecture with the Masked Autoencoder (MAE) paradigm for large-scale representation learning from unlabelled electroencephalography (EEG) and heart rate variability (HRV) signals.

Apnoea of prematurity is characterised by recurrent episodes of cessation of breathing and remains difficult to detect reliably using routinely monitored physiological signals in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). Existing bedside monitors rely primarily on respiratory rate and oxygen saturation thresholds, often generating high false-positive alarm rates and missing short or irregular events.
arXiv:2607. 22264v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autoregressive foundation models trained on tokenized electronic health records (EHRs) can support zero-shot clinical prediction, yet most operate on structured event codes alone, and do not incorporate multiple modalities in a principled way.

arXiv:2607. 23412v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Electrocardiograms (ECGs) are widely used for cardiovascular risk prediction, yet models often fail to transfer across hospitals because of protocol, population, and measurement differences.

arXiv:2607. 09749v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Foundation models have recently emerged as a powerful paradigm for learning transferable representations from large scale biomedical data, yet existing approaches for physiological waveforms primarily optimize reconstruction or forecasting objectives that do not explicitly preserve clinically meaningful waveform morphology.

arXiv:2605. 00647v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Automated pediatric electrocardiogram (ECG) interpretation remains challenging because developmental differences in heart rate, intervals, and waveforms limit the transferability of models trained mainly on adult data, while expert-labeled pediatric ECG cohorts are scarce.

arXiv:2606. 06718v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Myocardial substrate abnormalities, such as myocardial scar and myocardial infarction (MI), are associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes.
