arXiv:2607. 23412v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Electrocardiograms (ECGs) are widely used for cardiovascular risk prediction, yet models often fail to transfer across hospitals because of protocol, population, and measurement differences.

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.

The paper presents a new labelled ICU dataset and benchmarks for detecting atrial fibrillation (AF) from electrocardiograms (ECGs). It compares three AI approaches—feature‑based classifiers, deep learning, and ECG foundation models—across Canadian ICU data and the 2021 PhysioNet challenge, finding that ECG foundation models with transfer learning achieve the highest F1 score (0.89). The study demonstrates the feasibility of automated AF monitoring in ICU settings and provides resources for further research.

The paper introduces DCGCNet, a dual-codebook graph collaborative network that jointly reconstructs ECG signals and classifies atrial fibrillation. It incorporates a local‑global contrastive module for noise‑invariant feature learning and an adaptive codebook vector quantizer to prevent codebook collapse. The model achieves state‑of‑the‑art intra‑dataset performance and consistently attains AUC > 0.98 across seven cross‑dataset settings, even under realistic noisy conditions.

arXiv:2606. 10410v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Objective: Accurate classification of physiological signals in real-world deployments is challenged by sensor noise, motion artifacts, and distribution shifts between training and deployment data.

arXiv:2608. 00058v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Accurate measurement of ECG intervals, including PR, QRS duration, and QT/QTc, is central to cardiac diagnosis, yet the published ECG delineation literature evaluates performance almost exclusively as fiducial-point timing errors on small curated databases, rather than as clinical interval accuracy on large unselected cohorts.
