arXiv:2608.26964v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) is a standard, non-invasive examination widely used for diagnosing coronary artery disease, where clinical interpretation relies on comparing waveform patterns across multiple leads. However, most existing ECG analysis methods focus on single-lead signals or treat each lead independently, and typically process ECG signals as one-dimensional time-series data using CNNs or RNNs. While effective in modeling local waveform changes, such approaches have difficulty capturing inter-lead dependency and global waveform patterns essential for clinical diagnosis. To address this limitation, we propose a graph-based pseudo-multimodal contrastive learning framework called Graph-CMMC. ECG waveforms are transformed into Gramian Angular Difference Field (GADF) images to construct complementary representations of the same cardiac activity, enabling a pseudo-multimodal learning setting. Using all 12 leads, Graph-CMMC aligns waveform and GADF representations in a self-supervised manner, while a graph-based relational module is employed to model inter-lead dependency and enforce structural consistency across leads during contrastive learning. Experimental results on a multi-label coronary artery occlusion classification task demonstrate that the proposed framework achieves competitive performance compared to supervised learning methods. These results further suggest the effectiveness of using GADF as a complementary representation and incorporating explicit graph-based modeling of inter-lead dependency for …
