Towards Real-Time ECG and EMG Modeling on $\mu$ NPUs

ArXi:2604.18067v1 Announce Type: new The miniaturisation of neural processing units (NPUs) and other low-power accelerators has enabled their integration into microcontroller-scale wearable hardware, ing near-real-time, offline, and privacy-preserving inference. Yet physiological signal analysis has remained infeasible on such hardware; recent Transformer-based models show state-of-the-art performance but are prohibitively large for resource- and power-constrained hardware and incompatible with $\mu$ NPUs due to their dynamic attention operations. We.
