On-Device Inference versus Wireless Streaming: Energy-Efficient Multi-Modal Deep Learning for Wearable Cardiovascular Patches

arXiv:2510. 18668v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Wearable cardiovascular sensor patches promise continuous, unobtrusive monitoring, but their tight energy, memory, and compute budgets make it unclear whether physiological signals should be analyzed on the device or streamed to the cloud for processing.

CogAdapt: Adapting Clinical ECG Foundation Models for Wearable Cognitive Load Assessment

arXiv:2605. 22774v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Assessing cognitive load continuously and at low latency would help adaptive human-computer interaction, but it remains hard because labeled data are scarce and models generalize poorly across subjects.

Learning Cardiac Features: ECG Biometrics Across Time and~Exercise

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.

Timesynth: A Temporal Fidelity Framework for Health Signal Digital Twins

arXiv:2607. 00431v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Forecasting models for health-signal digital twins must preserve the oscillatory, frequency, phase, and state-transition dynamics of physiological signals, yet the pointwise metrics used to benchmark them cannot detect when these fundamental properties are lost.

WearableQA: A Benchmark for Health Reasoning over Real-World Wearable Data

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.

Robust Photoplethysmography Signal Denoising via Mamba Networks

The paper introduces DPNet, a Mamba-based deep learning framework for denoising photoplethysmography (PPG) signals while preserving physiological information. It incorporates a scale‑invariant signal‑to‑distortion ratio loss and an auxiliary heart‑rate predictor to enhance waveform fidelity and maintain heart‑rate accuracy. Experiments on the BIDMC dataset show that DPNet outperforms conventional filtering and existing neural models in robustness against synthetic noise and real‑world motion artifacts, making it suitable for wearable healthcare systems.
