arXiv:2607. 02569v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper presents a safety-centered empirical evaluation of uncertainty-aware last-layer adaptation for referable diabetic retinopathy screening using RETFound, a self-supervised vision-transformer retinal foundation model used here as a frozen feature encoder, and the public APTOS 2019 and DDR diabetic retinopathy fundus image datasets.

arXiv:2607. 19864v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diabetic retinopathy is a leading cause of preventable blindness; its early lesions are small, low contrast, and easily missed in manual screening.

arXiv:2608. 12745v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Medical AI has demonstrated specialist-level diagnostic accuracy, yet these capabilities remain largely inaccessible in resource-constrained rural settings where bandwidth is scarce, compute is limited, and clinical decision-making requires integrating heterogeneous modalities.

arXiv:2607. 01272v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deploying 3D point cloud analysis in privacy-sensitive, resource-constrained settings faces two barriers: data cannot be centralized, and models must run on limited edge hardware.

Medical AI has demonstrated specialist-level diagnostic accuracy, yet these capabilities remain largely inaccessible in resource-constrained rural settings where bandwidth is scarce, compute is limited, and clinical decision-making requires integrating heterogeneous modalities. We introduce a cloud--edge collaborative architecture that addresses these constraints: lightweight, domain-specific models on the edge transform raw medical data into compact structured outputs, while a cloud LLM synthesizes these outputs into clinical summaries.

arXiv:2608. 14705v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Hyperparameter optimization (HPO) can materially affect the performance of deep learning (DL) image classifiers, but there is little empirical guidance on how to derive the validation signal that drives it, especially for the small sample sizes common in fields such as medical imaging.
