1D residual neural network that predicts a patient's age directly from a 12-lead ECG; the gap between this predicted 'ECG age' and true chronological age is used as a biomarker of cardiovascular risk and mortality. Trained on the CODE-15% Brazilian ECG dataset, with the original R² of 0.71 later reproduced (R² = 0.70) in an independent German validation cohort. Developed by researchers at Uppsala University and UFMG.
