DeMMO is an interpretable framework that models longitudinal digital mobility outcomes (DMOs) across multiple diseases and outcomes using multi-task learning. It introduces a cross-disease, cross-outcome relation-learning mechanism that learns signed relationships from longitudinal DMO coefficient matrices, allowing selective information sharing even when disease cohorts lack shared participants. Evaluated on the Mobilise‑D dataset, DeMMO outperforms nine strong baselines and identifies reliable longitudinal DMO patterns for clinical validation.

BALMS is a benchmark for evaluating large language model (LLM) agents that analyze longitudinal wearable data to predict mental‑health wellbeing scores and generate evidence‑grounded rationales. It covers three real‑world datasets, two task families (score prediction and rationale generation), and tests five LLM backbones across open‑ and closed‑source paradigms. The study finds that zero‑shot agents rarely beat a simple mean baseline, and while chain‑of‑thought prompting helps reasoning, it does not ensure temporal grounding or numerical accuracy.

WearableQA is a new benchmark that tests AI systems on health reasoning using real-world wearable data from 200 users, each with up to 500 days of daily measurements. It contains 4,084 ten‑option multiple‑choice questions derived from wearable time series, blood biomarkers, and demographics, and is organized into 16 question types that distinguish data‑driven computation from physiological interpretation and single‑signal from cross‑signal reasoning. Evaluation of 14 large language models shows wide performance gaps, indicating that the benchmark remains challenging and useful for diagnosing model capabilities.

The paper introduces a Concept-Integrated Transformer (CIT) that uses a pretrained large language model to generate concept abnormality targets with confidence weights, eliminating the need for manual concept annotation. CIT is applied to mobile sensing data from two longitudinal datasets, achieving the highest F1 score on the AFFECT dataset (0.756) and tying for the highest on a PHQ-9 dataset (0.765). The model’s learned concept scores reveal interpretable behavioral and physiological patterns, such as differences in sleep quantity and quality between high and low negative affect groups.

The study introduces a clinician‑in‑the‑loop benchmark to assess whether large language models can generate evidence‑grounded Brief Hierarchical Taxonomy of Psychopathology (B‑HiTOP) item profiles from multimodal data, including passive sensing, ecological momentary assessment, and questionnaires. Using the GLOBEM dataset, the authors create 14,592 participant‑day instances aligned to 29 B‑HiTOP items across five spectra, and evaluate evidence compatibility rather than diagnostic accuracy. Two‑stage prediction improves compatibility for EMA and questionnaire evidence but reduces it for passive sensing and combined evidence, yielding more conservative score distributions across models, spectra, and evidence settings.
