MedMamba: Recasting Mamba for Medical Time Series Classification

Medical time series, such as electrocardiograms (ECG) and electroencephalograms (EEG), exhibit complex temporal dynamics and structured cross-channel dependencies, posing fundamental challenges for automated analysis. Conventional convolutional and recurrent models struggle to capture long-range dependencies, while Transformer-based approaches incur quadratic complexity and often introduce redundant interactions that are misaligned with the intrinsic structure of physiological signals. To address these limitations, we propose MedMamba, a principle-driven multi-scale bidirectional state space architecture tailored for medical time series classification. Our design is guided by three key inductive biases of physiological signals: spatial centralization, multi-timescale temporal composition, and non-causal contextual dependency. These principles are instantiated through a lightweight channel-mixing module for cross-channel reparameterization, multi-scale convolutional tokenization for temporal decomposition, and bidirectional Mamba blocks for efficient global context modeling with linear complexity. Extensive experiments on six benchmark datasets spanning EEG, ECG, and human activity signals demonstrate that MedMamba consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods across diverse modalities. Notably, it achieves 85.97% accuracy on PTB and establishes new state-of-the-art performance on the challenging ADFTD dataset (54.72% accuracy and 52.01% F1-score). Strong results on long-sequence benchmarks, such as SleepEDF, further validate its capability in modeling long-range dependencies. Moreover, MedMamba achieves a speedup of 4.6x in inference, highlighting its practicality for real-time clinical deployment. These results suggest that principle-guided state space modeling offers an effective and scalable alternative to Transformer-based approaches for medical time series analysis.
