Variational Low-rank Tensor Decomposition for Multisubject Spatiotemporal Data Analysis

arXiv:2607. 22262v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modeling shared and subject-specific structure in multisubject spatiotemporal data remains challenging, particularly in neuroimaging, where both spatial and temporal patterns exhibit rich variability across subjects.

Neuro-Causal Factor Analysis

Neuro-Causal Factor Analysis (NCFA) reimagines traditional factor analysis by integrating causal structure learning and deep generative modeling. The method learns a directed graph linking latent and observed variables, then trains a deep generative model that respects the graph’s Markov factorization. Experiments on synthetic and real datasets show NCFA achieves lower reconstruction error than standard FA and better latent distribution recovery than a variational autoencoder, while offering a sparser architecture, reduced complexity, and causal interpretability.

NeuroAlign: Hierarchical Multimodal Fusion of Dynamic and Structural Neuroimaging for MCI Analysis

arXiv:2606. 07635v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal neuroimaging fusion of functional MRI (fMRI) and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) provides complementary information for cognitive impairment analysis, but remains challenged by heterogeneous feature spaces and misaligned representations.

Latent graph encoding of multimodal neuroimaging features with generative AI architectures

arXiv:2607. 07027v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While generative models enable encoding of complex neuroimaging data for feature generation and reconstruction, developing optimal architectural frameworks with appropriate encoding and latent space processes is crucial for studying structural and functional properties of the brain.

Supervised Deep Multimodal Matrix Factorization for Interpretable Brain Network Analysis

The paper introduces Supervised Deep Multimodal Matrix Factorization (SD3MF), an interpretable framework that extends Symmetric Nonnegative Matrix Tri-Factorization to supervised prediction across populations of multimodal brain graphs. SD3MF learns deep hierarchical factorizations for each modality and a shared latent representation, jointly optimizing graph reconstruction and prediction while enabling data-driven multimodal fusion. Experiments on multimodal connectome datasets demonstrate that SD3MF outperforms strong deep learning baselines such as CNNs and GNNs, providing biologically interpretable insights through community-level interaction matrices.
