Harmonized ECG features improve cross-dataset clinical prediction

Researchers have developed a harmonized and interpretable feature representation for electrocardiogram (ECG) waveforms to improve cross-dataset clinical prediction. This approach, called FeatureDB, aims to reduce performance degradation when models trained on one hospital's data are applied to another's, addressing differences in protocols and measurements. The study evaluated this method on tasks like heart failure classification and mortality prediction, finding that the harmonized features maintained competitive performance and demonstrated greater stability in cross-dataset transfer compared to end-to-end deep learning models like ConvNeXt.

    Harmonized Interpretable ECG Waveform Features for Robust Cross-Dataset Clinical Prediction

    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. We benchmark cross-dataset generalization…
