A Multi-Analyst LLM Pipeline for Auditable Rule Discovery Across 68 Public Physiological Corpora
Open physiological corpora are heterogeneous: they use different sensors, labels, sampling rates, recording settings, and clinical endpoints. They can support detector design, but they do not directly specify which detector rules should be built for a new contactless monitoring platform. We report a controlled four-analyst large-language-model (LLM) workflow for converting 68 public physiological corpora, screened for commercial-use compatibility, into an auditable library of candidate rule shapes for prospective validation. Four independent commercial LLM families read the corpus documentation under a controlled prompt and produced 695 candidate rule markers (top-markers). Deduplication retained 649 rule records; a threshold-bounds audit then flagged 51 sanity violations for clamping or curator review. Cross-corpus consolidation produced 436 unique rule shapes. Gate-tagging against two hard invariants, native target-hardware channel availability and no multi-night per-patient personalization, identified 94 build-now detector components across four detector-family buckets. The pipeline does not produce a validated clinical detector. It produces an auditable engineering cascade in which analyst disagreement, threshold checks, curator review, and automated continuous-integration (CI) checks route literature-derived rules toward prospective hardware validation.
