arXiv:2608. 07393v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging ( fMRI ) data are often pooled into collaborative multi-site consortia, as deep learning models for analyses require large datasets to generalize well.

The paper introduces MSR-IVA, a state-aware fusion method that combines a shared structural representation with state‑specific residual adaptations and masks for incomplete state expression. Applied to an Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative cohort, MSR-IVA increased matched source coupling by 6.5% and decreased unmatched dependence by 15.7% compared to a baseline IVA approach. For subjects expressing both states, the method achieved a mean absolute cross‑state structural source correlation of 0.9177, far higher than the 0.2978 obtained without sharing, indicating effective preservation of source correspondence while allowing state‑specific adaptation.

Rhamba is a region‑aware pretraining framework for resting‑state fMRI that combines anatomically guided masking with hybrid Attention‑Mamba architectures. The study pretrained models on the ABIDE dataset using three masking strategies (Any, Majority, Pure) and evaluated four architectural variants, finding that the Mamba‑Attention (MA) hybrid achieved the best average AUROC on downstream schizophrenia and ADHD classification tasks. Explainable AI via Integrated Gradients highlighted that performance depends on the interaction between masking strategy and architecture rather than a single dominant configuration.

The paper introduces Neuro‑JEPA, a sparse multimodal foundation model that learns unified representations of brain MRI across T1w, T2w, and FLAIR sequences using a latent predictive objective and a Mixture‑of‑Experts architecture. It was pretrained on over 1.5 million scans from 428,647 studies and systematically evaluates architectural, masking, objective, and sparsity choices for robust multimodal representation learning. Across 47 tasks from three health systems and 12 public datasets, Neuro‑JEPA consistently outperforms a simple CNN baseline, demonstrating its effectiveness for both clinical and research applications.
