1PLS (Islam)

PPG features + partial least squares (Islam et al. 2021 method) [reproduction]

Evaluation details

Trained on all VitalDB data, tested on the 67 MUST (Kermani) recordings (Supraja et al. 2026 out-of-distribution test). MUST glucose spans only 88-183 mg/dL, so mean prediction scores well; R² was below zero for every model.

Reported as of: 2026-10-16

2MFCC + XGBoost (Prabha)

MFCC features + XGBoost (Prabha et al. 2022 method) [reproduction]

Evaluation details

Trained on all VitalDB data, tested on the 67 MUST (Kermani) recordings (Supraja et al. 2026 out-of-distribution test). MUST glucose spans only 88-183 mg/dL, so mean prediction scores well; R² was below zero for every model.
