ICLR 2026 Oral accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Accurate analysis of Medical time series (MedTS) data, such as Electroencephalography (EEG) and Electrocardiography (ECG), plays a pivotal role in healthcare applications, including the diagnosis of brain and heart diseases. MedTS data typically exhibits two critical patterns: **temporal dependencies** within individual channels and **channel dependencies** across multiple channels. While recent advances in deep learning have leveraged Transformer-based models to effectively capture temporal dependencies, they often struggle to model channel dependencies. This limitation stems from a structural mismatch: ***MedTS signals are inherently centralized, whereas the Transformer's attention is decentralized***, making it less effective at capturing global synchronization and unified waveform patterns.
