Impact of Multiple Non-Invasive Biosignals on Cardiovascular Biomarker Estimation via Simulation-Based Inference

The study investigates how adding ballistocardiography (BCG) signals to photoplethysmography (PPG) and arterial pressure wave (APW) signals affects the estimation of cardiovascular biomarkers. Using a unified whole‑body cardiovascular model, synthetic PPG, APW, and BCG signals were generated and analyzed with neural posterior estimation and simulation‑based inference. Results show that incorporating BCG significantly improves estimation accuracy, converting multimodal posterior distributions from PPG/APW alone into unimodal distributions, thereby enhancing the reliability of cardiovascular biomarker estimation.

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.

A Hybrid Predictive Ensemble of Machine Learning and Deep Neural Networks for Early Cardiovascular Disease Risk Assessment

The paper presents a hybrid predictive ensemble that merges machine learning and deep neural network techniques to detect and prognosticate cardiovascular disease early. It processes real‑time physiological data from IoMT devices, applying preprocessing, feature selection, and optimized classifiers (SVM, Random Forest, XGBoost) within an ensemble architecture. The cloud‑based system achieves higher accuracy, fewer false positives, and consistent performance on real‑world datasets, supporting continuous patient monitoring and clinical decision support.
