Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death globally, causing nearly 17.9 million deaths per year. Therefore, early detection and treatment are critical to help improve this situation. Many manufacturers have developed products to monitor patients' heart conditions as they perform their daily activities. However, very few can diagnose complex heart anomalies beyond detecting rhythm fluctuation. This paper proposes a new method that combines a Short-Time Fourier Transform (STFT) spectrogram of the ECG signal with handcrafted features to detect heart anomalies beyond commercial product capabilities. Using the proposed Convolutional Neural Network, the algorithm can detect 16 different rhythm anomalies with an accuracy of 99.79% with 0.15% false-alarm rate and 99.74% sensitivity. Additionally, the same algorithm can also detect 13 heartbeat anomalies with 99.18% accuracy with 0.45% false-alarm rate and 98.80% sensitivity.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
