CADENCE: A Cardiac Atom Dictionary for Interpretable Neural Concept Extraction from ECG Foundation Models

arXiv:2607. 25244v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Foundation models for 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs) transfer well across clinical tasks, but the physiological knowledge encoded in their representations remains opaque.

ECG-InterpBench: Benchmarking the Interpretability of ECG Foundation Models with Matched-Scale Sparse Autoencoders

arXiv:2607. 27404v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing benchmarks for electrocardiogram foundation models primarily evaluate downstream predictive performance, providing limited insight into whether their internal representations can be faithfully decomposed, clinically interpreted, or reproduced across independent analyses.

CardioState-JEPA: Delay-Aware Cross-Modal Learning of a Shared Cardiac Representation

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.

MorphologyFM: A Foundation Model for Morphology-Aware Representation Learning from ECG and Pulse Oximetry Waveforms

arXiv:2607. 09749v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Foundation models have recently emerged as a powerful paradigm for learning transferable representations from large scale biomedical data, yet existing approaches for physiological waveforms primarily optimize reconstruction or forecasting objectives that do not explicitly preserve clinically meaningful waveform morphology.

ECG-LENS: Lead-Aware Clinical Context Enriched ECG Report Generation and Evaluation

arXiv:2608. 05893v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Electrocardiography (ECG) is one of the most widely used non-invasive tools for diagnosing cardiovascular disease, but transforming multi-lead ECG recordings into reliable clinical reports remains challenging.

ECG-LLM: Foundation Model for ECG-Based Cardiac Reasoning

arXiv:2607. 16323v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Electrocardiography (ECG) is an inexpensive, standard-of-care test for cardiac symptoms, but front-line triage often lacks immediate access to definitive imaging such as echocardiography (ECHO) or cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR).
