Self-supervision is a powerful technique for learning visual representations from unlabeled data. Existing techniques primarily adopt a two-stage approach for self-supervised learning (SSL): a pretraining stage on unlabeled data followed by a finetuning stage on labeled data.

Dataset distillation compresses a large training set into a compact synthetic set while retaining its downstream utility. Most existing methods target randomly initialized networks, whereas modern vision systems often adapt frozen pretrained encoders with lightweight modules.
arXiv:2605. 25402v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Self-supervised pre-training paradigm has gained increasing prominence for learning transferable representations in medical imaging, yet existing methods for ultrasound (US) images operate at the image or frame level, overlooking the anatomical context for clinical-aligned representation learning.

arXiv:2606. 04922v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Current prompt-based and adapter-based tuning of vision-language models (VLMs) is attractive for medical imaging, where clinical data sensitivity favors frozen backbones and annotations are limited.

arXiv:2606. 06664v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Despite high accuracy, Vision Transformer (ViT) predictions can be driven by spurious cues, raising the need to understand their inner workings before safe deployment.

Medical foundation models learn latent representations of clinically meaningful phenotypes, yet their ability to support controllable image generation remains largely unexplored. We evaluate four retinal foundation models within the representation tokenizer framework and examine whether demographic and clinical information encoded in latent representations from foundation models is preserved during synthetic image generation.
