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.

The paper introduces LYNX-ECG, a graph neural network that represents each heartbeat as a sparse visibility graph of timestamped turning points, enabling accurate ECG classification while providing auditable, clinically grounded explanations. On the CODE-Test dataset, LYNX-ECG achieves a macro F1 score of 0.889, outperforming five baselines including the ECGFounder foundation model, and its graphs require only about 14% of the storage needed for full-sample graphs. Because each graph node corresponds to a specific ECG time, clinicians can delete waveform regions or alter beat timing to audit predictions, with the clinically expected region proving strongest evidence in over 90% of correct conduction disorder predictions.
"whyItMatters":"The model’s ability to pair high classification accuracy with transparent, testable explanations directly addresses the need for clinically interpretable AI in ECG analysis."

BEAT-Net is a supervised biomimetic framework for ECG diagnosis that incorporates QRS-centered tokenization and a hierarchical architecture mirroring a cardiologist’s workflow. It processes heartbeat sequences through morphological, spatial, temporal, and transformer-based stages, achieving an AUC of 0.924 on large benchmarks while using only 0.7 million parameters. The model outperforms the 39.5‑million‑parameter HeartLang foundation model on morphological form classification and demonstrates superior cross‑dataset generalization with only 35% of the training data.

The paper introduces R‑U‑Net, an ECG delineation model that combines a ResNet‑18 encoder with a U‑Net decoder. It demonstrates that this decoder design outperforms a ResNet‑18 + fully convolutional network baseline across 16 in‑domain settings and improves cross‑domain performance by 8.1 mIoU. Ablation studies reveal that the decoder contributes more to performance gains than the evaluated semi‑supervised learning methods.
