QDSP: An Interpretable Structured Learning Framework for Predicting Death or Cerebral Palsy in Very Low Birth Weight Infants

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

arXiv:2606. 07606v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Very low birth weight infants (VLBWI) are at high risk of mortality and severe neurodevelopmental impairment, including cerebral palsy, yet reliable discharge-time prognostic stratification remains challenging in high-dimensional and data-limited clinical settings.

Uncertainty-Aware Federated Learning for Infant Movement Analysis

The paper introduces the first federated learning framework for infant movement analysis, specifically targeting General Movement Assessment using skeletal motion data. It employs Monte Carlo Dropout to estimate predictive uncertainty and proposes an Uncertainty-Aware Federated Averaging (UA‑FedAvg) strategy that weights client updates by this uncertainty. Experiments with three clients show that federated learning outperforms local models and approaches centralized training performance, with UA‑FedAvg generally surpassing standard FedAvg.

Real-Time Musculoskeletal Surrogates for Pediatric Cerebral Palsy: a Credibility Pilot

The study presents a real‑time musculoskeletal surrogate for children with cerebral palsy, built from OpenSim parameters, joint kinematics, and muscle capacities. Using leave‑one‑subject‑out validation on nine pediatric gait recordings, the surrogate reproduces musculotendon lengths with high accuracy (R² ≈ 0.92–0.95, nRMSE < 8%) and achieves sub‑millisecond inference times, well below the 100 ms interactive‑rehabilitation target. A Monte Carlo credibility pilot reveals that small variations in anthropometry and muscle capacity lead to overconfident 90 % prediction intervals, highlighting the need for improved force modeling and uncertainty quantification.

Label-Conditioned Cross-Modal Fusion for Adult-to-Pediatric ECG Transfer via Curriculum-Gated Contrastive Alignment

arXiv:2605. 00647v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Automated pediatric electrocardiogram (ECG) interpretation remains challenging because developmental differences in heart rate, intervals, and waveforms limit the transferability of models trained mainly on adult data, while expert-labeled pediatric ECG cohorts are scarce.
