Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) is a prevalent spinal deformity in adolescents that, if left untreated, can result in severe health outcomes. Traditional screening methods are limited by subjective interpretation, reliance on professional expertise and low scalability. To address these challenges, we present ScoliGait dataset, which comprises 1,516 gait video clips paired with corresponding X-ray records. We also introduce TokenSTFormer, a novel model that tokenizes spatial and temporal semantics to enhance feature representation and convergence. Our model achieves state-of-the-art performance, surpassing vanilla Vision Transformer encoder across key metrics, including accuracy of 0.79. This study highlights the potential of leveraging holistic motion features derived from gait video and attention-based models for scalable, cost-effective AIS screening, paving the way for future clinical applications in scoliosis detection.
Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome is a congenital cardiac pre-excitation, clinically important and often missed on the resting 12-lead ECG. Detection is hard: the signature is subtle and the condition rare. We pool two public 12-lead corpora, PTB-XL and Chapman-Shaoxing-Ningbo: 66,951 recordings, 142 of them WPW, a prevalence of 0.21% (about 471:1). Under one pre-specified, leakage-controlled protocol, with a held-out fold contacted exactly once, we compare seven representations of the signal, holding the split and the evaluation fixed. Within these corpora and under a modest compute budget, added diversity and capacity do not raise the ceiling: the most orthogonal detector significantly hurts, a feature-union model matches a two-member vote, a convolutional network reaches the wavelet detector without exceeding it, and self-supervised pretraining fails a pre-specified gate. A leak-free learning curve, re-selecting features at every size, still rises at the full 115 positives for the strongest deployed detector (paired 90-to-100% difference +0.027, 95% CI [0.019, 0.033]), so it is not shown to have saturated. An error analysis tested against independent evidence finds that the missed cases have a narrower QRS, confirmed by an on-machine measurement outside our pipeline after we show the sign of this effect depends on which delineator measures it; that uncertain labels show no enrichment among the misses; and that some apparent false positives are recordings the corpus itself codes as pre-excited, placing part of the label problem in the negative class. We measure the optimism of non-nested selection at 0.11 to 0.13 average precision. The deployed output is a percentile rank in a frozen reference distribution, not a probability. On the held-out fold, on 14 positives, it reaches an average precision of 0.595 and an ROC area of 0.950. It is a screening pre-filter, not a diagnostic tool.
