Graph-Based Pseudo-multimodal Contrastive Learning for 12-Lead ECG Representations

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

The paper introduces Graph-CMMC, a graph-based pseudo‑multimodal contrastive learning framework for 12‑lead ECG representations. It transforms ECG waveforms into Gramian Angular Difference Field (GADF) images to create complementary views, then aligns these views while modeling inter‑lead dependencies with a graph module. Experiments on coronary artery occlusion classification show that Graph-CMMC performs competitively with supervised methods, highlighting the value of GADF representations and explicit graph modeling for robust ECG analysis.

Atrial Fibrillation Detection with Arbitrary Leads via a Codebook-Based Reconstruction-Classification Framework

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.

LAEF: A Lead-Agnostic ECG Foundation Model Towards Point-of-Care Diagnostics

arXiv:2608. 03690v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Point-of-care cardiac devices such as smartwatches and handheld ECG recorders typically capture 1--2 leads, yet existing ECG foundation models are architecturally constrained to fixed 12-lead inputs, degrading or failing under these reduced configurations.

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.
