arXiv:2606. 29949v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: H&E-stained whole-slide images offer cohort-scale availability and rich spatial context but lack molecular specificity, whereas bulk RNA-seq provides transcriptome-wide resolution at high cost with limited archival availability.

Integrating complex, multi-omics data presents significant challenges. Existing approaches often face a trade-off between model interpretability and representational capacity, with most either relying on post-hoc interpretation or use linear models that may overlook complex interactions.
Recent advances in pathology foundation models have enabled accurate prediction of spatial transcriptomics (ST) from routine H&E images. However, existing explainability methods for vision transformer...

MIST is a multimodal survival prediction framework that fuses whole-slide images and genomic profiles by representing genomic features as tokens that query histology context tokens derived from a foundation model. The architecture enriches molecular information with histology context before survival prediction, avoiding late-stage merging of separately encoded modalities. Training incorporates discrete-time survival prediction, genomic feature masking, WSI dropout, and contrastive alignment, and demonstrates improved external C-index across colon, renal, lung, and glioblastoma cohorts compared to standard fusion baselines.

arXiv:2608. 02803v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Attention-based multiple instance learning (ABMIL) is the predominant approach for slide-level prediction in computational pathology, yet its attention maps provide only local explanations: they indicate where a model focuses but not which histological features drive its predictions or how the model behaves across a patient cohort.
