Beyond Blur: A Semantic Tri-view Pipeline for Teledermatology Gradability via Skin Micro-relief

The paper introduces the Semantic Tri-view Pipeline, an interpretable system that automatically screens teledermatology photographs for gradability by analyzing epidermal micro-relief across up to three smartphone views. It uses a lightweight DeepLabV3+ model to segment micro-relief fidelity and aggregates the resulting spatial masks with logistic regression, leveraging viewpoint redundancy to improve robustness. Evaluated on the SCIN dataset, the approach raises the AUC from 0.81 to 0.96 on optically clear cases, offering real‑time, privacy‑by‑design feedback to filter ungradable photo sets before clinician review.

Aortic Valve Disease Screening from PPG via Physiology-Guided Self-Supervised Learning

arXiv:2602. 04266v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Aortic valve disease (AVD) represents a major public health burden, while its diagnosis relies on echocardiography, which is limited by cost and specialist expertise, restricting scalable screening and risk stratification.

$\unicode{x1F493}$Heartian: Physiology-Aware Relightable Gaussian Head Avatar

The paper introduces Heartian, a physiology‑aware framework that augments Gaussian head avatars with cardiac‑cycle‑dependent albedo modulation, enabling the encoding of remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) signals. By supervising with synchronized contact PPG, the method models the cardiac waveform as a sum of two Gaussians and learns per‑frame spatial residuals via a lightweight MLP. Experiments on 152 stationary recordings from UBFC‑rPPG, PURE, and MMPD show heart‑rate estimation errors as low as 0.29 bpm MAE and 0.38 % MAPE, while preserving reconstruction quality with negligible PSNR loss.
