Abstract
We describe an automatic detector of phonocardiogram murmurs.Our detector composes the scattering transform (ST) and a long short-term memory (LSTM) network.It is trained on data as part of the Heart Murmur Detection from Phonocardiogram Recordings: The George B. Moody PhysioNet Challenge 2022.The ST captures shortterm temporal ECG modulations while reducing its sampling rate to a few samples per typical heart beat.We pass the output of the ST to a depthwise-separable convolution layer which transforms responses separately for each ST coefficient and then combines resulting values across ST coefficients.At a deeper level, 2 LSTM layers integrate local variations of the input over long time scales.We train in an end-to-end fashion as a classification problem with three murmur classes: present, absent or unknown.Additionally, we use the model to classify clinical outcome as normal or abnormal.These two classifications determine whether clinical followup should occur.Our team "PAWPCG" obtained an official score on the hidden test data of 0.637 for weighted accuracy on murmur classification (rank: 27 of 40 teams) and a clinical outcome cost of 15083 (rank: 32 of 39 teams).

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
