Description
Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) related most machine learning (ML) models trained on clinical data offer high accuracy but are not practical for continuous monitoring. Smartwatch-based wearables provide continuous real-time physiological data but lack clinical validation for robust risk prediction outside the clinical setting. To bridge this gap, we proposed a novel teacher-student knowledge distillation framework that transfers knowledge of complex and large EHR datasets to a small Fitbit smartwatch dataset-based prediction model. The student model achieves promising accuracy, identifying all types of derived CVD risk profile groups. Our study introduces a non-invasive continuous health monitoring framework, demonstrating that passively collected daily metrics can be transformed to clinically powerful early warnings of an individual’s long-term cardiovascular health plan.
