The paper presents a hybrid CNN–state‑space–attention backbone designed for 12‑lead ECG classification, combining early waveform tokenization, mixed temporal dynamics modeling, and late global attention. It introduces an ECG‑oriented Joint‑Embedding Predictive Pretraining (JEPA) that samples span masks at latent resolution and predicts clean latent targets via a momentum encoder, avoiding waveform reconstruction. Experiments on CPSC2018, Chapman‑Shaoxing, and PTB‑XL, with pretraining on ~350K unlabeled CODE‑15 recordings, demonstrate strong supervised baselines and improved transfer, especially in low‑label scenarios and with LoRA adaptation.

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: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.

BeatGraph is a self‑supervised model that represents infant ECG recordings as graphs of individual heartbeats rather than fixed‑length patches, allowing it to capture the higher heart rates and distinct waveform patterns of infants. The model uses a shared beat encoder, a Transformer for temporal ordering, and graph attention layers to produce a window embedding, which is pretrained on a large unlabeled infant ECG corpus and fine‑tuned for tasks such as sleep‑wake detection, infant‑state classification, activity‑source identification, and affect recognition. BeatGraph achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on multiple infant‑specific benchmarks and transfers well to pediatric and adult ECG datasets, while also releasing the first public infant ECG corpus collected in diverse home and classroom settings.

arXiv:2607. 23554v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In this paper, we propose the MAEConformer, a novel self-supervised learning framework that combines the Conformer architecture with the Masked Autoencoder (MAE) paradigm for large-scale representation learning from unlabelled electroencephalography (EEG) and heart rate variability (HRV) signals.
