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.

Pre-term infants are susceptible to potentially harmful apnoea-related cessations of breathing due to immature respiratory control. However, reliable respiratory monitoring in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) remains challenging because motion artefacts, sensor displacement, and skin fragility can compromise contact-based measurements.
arXiv:2507. 12645v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The increasing need for accurate and unified analysis of diverse biological signals, such as ECG and EEG, is paramount for comprehensive patient assessment, especially in synchronous monitoring.

arXiv:2606. 06718v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Myocardial substrate abnormalities, such as myocardial scar and myocardial infarction (MI), are associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes.
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:2606. 26723v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Respiratory activity is a direct and interpretable physiological channel for wearable stress and affective-state recognition, yet many studies emphasize classification accuracy without identifying which respiratory properties separate different states.
