MultiSigBERT is a unified framework that performs multimodal sequential survival modeling in oncology by integrating narrative clinical reports, numerical measurements, and structured variables. The method converts free-text reports into sentence embeddings, compresses them with modality-specific PCA, and concatenates them with structured covariates to create joint temporal trajectories. These trajectories are encoded using the Signature transform from Rough Paths theory, and the resulting high-dimensional features are fed into a LASSO-regularized Cox model, achieving a concordance index of 0.743 on an independent test set of over 2,500 patients.

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.

Accurate prognosis prediction is important for treatment planning in lung cancer, but deep learning-driven survival modelling is often limited by the scarcity of curated imaging cohorts with reliable outcome data. This study evaluates whether representations from a domain-specific foundation model can be used for multimodal survival prediction in data-constrained clinical settings.

arXiv:2506. 04831v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Forecasting how a patient's condition is likely to evolve, including possible deterioration, recovery, treatment needs, and care transitions, could support more proactive and personalized care, but requires modeling heterogeneous and longitudinal electronic health record (EHR) data.
