A novel transformer-based approach for cardiovascular disease detection
Bibliographic record
Abstract
According to the World Health Organization, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) account for an estimated 17.9 million deaths annually. CVDs refer to disorders of the heart and blood vessels such as arrhythmia, atrial fibrillation, congestive heart failure, and normal sinus rhythm. Early prediction of these diseases can significantly reduce the number of annual deaths. This study proposes a novel, efficient, and low-cost transformer-based algorithm for CVD classification. Initially, 56 features were extracted from electrocardiography recordings using 1,200 cardiac ailment records, with each of the four diseases represented by 300 records. Then, random forest was used to select the 13 most prominent features. Finally, a novel transformer-based algorithm has been developed to classify four classes of cardiovascular diseases. The proposed study achieved a maximum accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score of 0.9979, 0.9959, 0.9958, and 0.9959, respectively. The proposed algorithm outperformed all the existing state-of-the-art algorithms for CVD classification.

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
