Automatic pain localization, which involves identifying the anatomical origin of pain from peripheral physiological signals without patient self-report, is a clinically critical but largely unaddressed problem, particularly for non-verbal patients. This paper presents a systematic comparison of classical feature engineering and deep sequence learning for subject-independent three-class pain localization using the AI4Pain 2026 Challenge dataset, which comprises four synchronously recorded wearable modalities: electrodermal activity, blood volume pulse, respiration, and peripheral oxygen saturation recorded from 65 participants under controlled TENS-induced pain.
The study investigates ECG biometrics by training a Siamese ResNet with late multi-lead fusion on a large dataset from cardiopulmonary exercise tests. It evaluates the model under realistic conditions, including exercise-induced stress and cross-session variability, achieving an intra-session rest-to-peak EER of 1.7% and a state‑of‑the‑art 3.9% on the CYBHi dataset. The results demonstrate that an intrinsic cardiac signature remains robust to physiological and temporal drift.

The paper introduces Graph-CMMC, a graph-based pseudo‑multimodal contrastive learning framework for 12‑lead ECG representations. It transforms ECG waveforms into Gramian Angular Difference Field (GADF) images to create complementary views, then aligns these views while modeling inter‑lead dependencies with a graph module. Experiments on coronary artery occlusion classification show that Graph-CMMC performs competitively with supervised methods, highlighting the value of GADF representations and explicit graph modeling for robust ECG analysis.
BeatGraph is a self‑supervised model that represents infant ECG recordings as graphs of individual heartbeats rather than fixed‑length patches, allowing it to capture the higher heart rates and distinct waveform patterns of infants. The model uses a shared beat encoder, a Transformer for temporal ordering, and graph attention layers to produce a window embedding, which is pretrained on a large unlabeled infant ECG corpus and fine‑tuned for tasks such as sleep‑wake detection, infant‑state classification, activity‑source identification, and affect recognition. BeatGraph achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on multiple infant‑specific benchmarks and transfers well to pediatric and adult ECG datasets, while also releasing the first public infant ECG corpus collected in diverse home and classroom settings.
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.
