The paper introduces Generalist‑Specialist Mixture‑of‑Experts (GS‑MoE), a two‑branch architecture that combines a cross‑modal generalist model with modality‑specific specialists through domain‑constrained feature fusion. GS‑MoE improves detection of rare pathologies in multimodal medical imaging, achieving significant per‑class F1 gains and outperforming dense and specialist‑only MoE baselines while using about 53% fewer active parameters at inference. The study demonstrates that balancing cross‑modal shared representations with expert routing can enhance performance on low‑prevalence conditions.

The paper presents a newly curated, multi-center, multi-modal, and longitudinal lung cancer dataset comprising 1,365 patients with whole-slide images, CT scans, PET scans, structured clinical data, transcriptomics, and follow-up information. The dataset features substantial, non-uniform missingness across modalities, making it ideal for evaluating robust multi-modal fusion strategies. Benchmarks on 12‑month overall survival, disease‑specific survival, and longitudinal hazard prediction demonstrate that integrating complementary modalities consistently outperforms uni-modal approaches, even under severe missing data.

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.
