ECG 基础模型基准：跨临床任务的现实检验

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. The 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) is a long-standing diagnostic tool. Yet machine learning for ECG interpretation remains fragmented, often limited to narrow tasks or datasets. FMs promise broader adaptability, but fundamental questions remain: Which architectures generalize best? How do models scale with limited labels? What explains performance differences across model families? We benchmarked eight ECG FMs on 26 clinically relevant tasks using 12 public datasets comprising 1,650 regression and classification targets. Models were evaluated under fine-tuning and frozen settings, with scaling analyses across dataset sizes.
