Regression-based convolutional neural network that directly estimates the heart-rate-corrected QT interval (QTc) from a 12-lead ECG, aiming to improve on automated QTc measurements from commercial ECG systems, which often diverge from expert readings. QTcNet was trained on 120,300 algorithm-labeled ECGs from an internal hospital cohort and the public MIMIC-IV database (after correcting for a vendor-specific measurement bias), and evaluated against expert QTc measurements in three independent external cohorts (PTB Diagnostic ECG Database, QTcMS, and ECGRDVQ). It roughly halved the mean absolute error compared with standard ECG analysis software (from 23.4ms to 13.4ms across external validation cohorts), with explainability analysis confirming the model focuses on physiologically plausible QRS-onset and T-offset regions.

ECG-guided photoplethysmography (PPG) foundation model pretrained on over 100,000 hours of synchronized PPG-ECG recordings from 58,796 subjects across five clinical and wearable sources, using a CLIP-style contrastive alignment framework so the PPG encoder inherits physiologically grounded structure from paired ECG. Achieves state-of-the-art performance on 13 of 15 conventional physiological-analysis tasks across eight datasets, and shows meaningful discriminative capability (AUC >= 0.70) for 307 ICD-10-coded phenotypes across 16 phecode chapters, including many non-cardiovascular conditions.

Supervised EfficientNetV2-based 12-lead ECG model trained on over 1 million ECGs from the Montreal Heart Institute to predict 77 cardiac conditions derived from American Heart Association recommendations, plus fine-tuned digital-biomarker heads for reduced LVEF, 5-year atrial-fibrillation risk, and long-QT-syndrome (LQTS) detection/genotyping. Validated on 881,403 ECGs across 11 geographically diverse cohorts (4 public, 7 private health systems), achieving AUROCs above 0.98 for the 77-condition interpretation task while being 60x smaller and 29x faster at inference than its self-supervised DeepECG-SSL counterpart, with up to 9.7x lower CO2 emissions on equivalent tasks.

Self-supervised EfficientNetV2-based 12-lead ECG foundation model pretrained via contrastive learning and masked-lead modeling on 1.9 million ECGs (Montreal Heart Institute plus CODE-15% and MIMIC-IV), then fine-tuned for the same 77-condition ECG interpretation task and digital-biomarker extraction as DeepECG-SL. Outperforms the supervised counterpart on label-scarce digital-biomarker tasks, with the largest gains on LQTS genotype classification (AUROC 0.931 vs. 0.850, n=127 ECGs) and 5-year atrial-fibrillation risk (AUROC 0.742 vs. 0.734, n=132,050 ECGs), and outperforms ECG-FM and ECGFounder on shared external diagnostic classes.

Patch-based masked-training framework for robust arrhythmia detection from digitized, multi-layout ECG images (e.g. 3x4, 2x6, 12x1 printed/scanned layouts), designed to handle the asynchronous lead timing and partial signal blackout that digitization introduces. An adaptive variable block-count masking strategy focuses model attention on key patches with cross-lead dependencies. Evaluated on PTB-XL digitized into multiple synthetic layouts and externally validated on 400 real digitized ECG images from Chaoyang Hospital, outperforming classical imputation baselines and the CNN foundation model ECGFounder.

ECG foundation model designed to remain accurate when leads are missing or signals are noisy. A 1D ConvNeXt V2 encoder is trained with a dual-mode self-distillation objective (separate lead-missing and noise "teachers") alongside contrastive alignment to detailed diagnostic-criteria text reports retrieved via a lightweight, LLM-free "Cardiac Feature Retrieval" module. Consistently ranks best or second-best across PTB-XL diagnostic tasks and MIT-BIH arrhythmia classification under original, noisy, lead-missing, and combined-corruption conditions. Developed by FPT Software AI Center and the University of Arkansas.

ECG foundation model built on the xLSTM (extended LSTM) architecture: a bidirectional stack of nine alternating scalar- and matrix-memory LSTM blocks that scales linearly with sequence length, unlike the quadratic cost of transformer-based ECG models. Pretrained with SimDINOv2, a coding-rate-regularized self-distillation (DINO) objective adapted from computer vision to ECG time series, on roughly 8 million recordings from CODE, INCART, and Chapman-Shaoxing-Ningbo. Introduced alongside BenchECG, a standardized 8-dataset/10-task benchmark, on which xECG achieves the best average rank of any publicly available ECG foundation model, with particular strength on long-context tasks (30-minute ambulatory arrhythmia classification, multi-hour sleep-apnea segmentation) where transformer-based models are computationally limited.

Dual-encoder single-lead ECG classifier for atrial fibrillation detection that fuses a raw-signal branch with a spectrogram branch via axial attention and a Transformer. Originally developed as a graduate-course project at TU Darmstadt for the 2017 PhysioNet/CinC Challenge, and later extended in a 2023 follow-up study. Released in four sizes up to 130M parameters (S/M/L/XL), alongside a simpler CNN+LSTM variant.

Open ECG foundation model with 90.9M parameters, built on a wav2vec 2.0-style Transformer and pretrained on 1.25-1.5 million ECGs using a hybrid contrastive-and-generative self-supervised objective. Base pretrained weights and MIMIC-IV-ECG-finetuned downstream checkpoints are both released. Developed on the fairseq_signals framework by the University of Toronto / Vector Institute's Wang lab.
