arXiv:2606. 16868v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While federated learning (FL) enables collaborative medical image segmentation without centralizing sensitive data, real-world deployment is frequently complicated by cross-site label imperfections such as contour disagreement, missing or additional structures, and confused labels.

Multimodal fusion learning (MFL) has shown great potential in the medical domain, where we are faced with disparate data modalities such as imaging, clinical records, and omics. However, existing MFL strategies face several major challenges.
arXiv:2608. 13911v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Federated multimodal medical AI faces modality heterogeneity at both the client and sample levels: clients may systematically lack access to specific modality types, while individual records within the same client may contain different partial modality subsets.

The paper introduces MSM‑Seg, a dual‑memory segmentation framework for 3D multi‑modal brain tumor segmentation. It combines a modality‑and‑slice memory attention module to capture cross‑modal and spatial‑slice dependencies, a multi‑scale category‑agnostic prompt encoder for whole‑tumor guidance, and a modality‑adaptive fusion decoder to integrate complementary decoding information. Experiments on various MRI datasets show that MSM‑Seg surpasses state‑of‑the‑art methods for metastases and glioma tumor segmentation.

PANDA (Prototype‑Anchored Data Alignment) is a two‑stage framework that enables a primary‑modality model to benefit from auxiliary modalities even when those modalities are only partially paired or absent at inference. In Stage 1, a shared embedding is learned from the paired subset and class prototypes are estimated from the auxiliary data; in Stage 2, the primary encoder is trained on all subjects using cross‑entropy and alignment to the frozen prototypes. PANDA was evaluated on Alzheimer’s MRI and TCGA‑Lung pathology, achieving significant AUC gains and improved survival prediction while requiring no auxiliary inputs during deployment.
