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.

Wearable ECG Quality Assessment: A Deep Learning and Ambulatory Context-Awareness Approach

The paper introduces a deep learning-based signal quality assessment model that differentiates clean from noisy ambulatory ECG recordings. It is trained on the Copenhagen Center for Health Technology-Contextualized Arrhythmia Database, the first ambulatory ECG database that includes both physical and patient-reported contextual data. The model maintains stable performance across other datasets such as MIT and PhysioNet/CinC Challenge 2021, and the study demonstrates how the model can be used to investigate complex ECG noise in conjunction with contextual information.

A Rapid Pipeline for Training and Deploying ML Models on WeBe Band

The paper presents a rapid pipeline for training and deploying machine‑learning models on the WeBe Band, a wrist‑worn wearable device. It automates the creation of hardware‑efficient models, integrates with the Piccolo AI ecosystem, and supports OTA deployment while profiling latency and memory usage. Experimental results show trade‑offs between classical models and lightweight neural networks for real‑time performance on a microcontroller.
