*
Corresponding author. More than one * marks co-corresponding authors.
†*
Both first and corresponding author.
Tags
The solid tag is the field a paper belongs to (e.g., Acute & Critical Care, Biosignals). Tinted tags are topics, combined when a paper spans more than one: Machine Learning (a model is built or used), Clinical Research (a clinical question or cohort), and Evaluation Framework (how clinical models are evaluated and reported). Grey outlined tags give the format and how a conference paper was presented.
Bold
