arXiv:2606. 12362v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study multimodal learning under missing modalities, with particular motivation from bioscience applications in which heterogeneous modalities are often only partially available when decisions need to be made.
arXiv:2606. 15743v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper addresses the missing-modality challenge in multi-modal learning by introducing Unsupervised Learning for Missing Modalities in Multi-Modal Learning (UL4M4), a flexible framework that imputes missing feature embeddings in a task-independent manner before supervised prediction.
arXiv:2606. 06328v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In healthcare, multimodal time series tasks often operate on incomplete observations in practice, for example when ECG segments are lost because electrodes detach or an entire respiratory channel is unavailable during overnight monitoring.
arXiv:2608. 02769v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal supervised learning seeks to leverage multiple heterogeneous data sources to improve predictive performance.
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:2606. 09907v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal clinical learning is increasingly important for integrating diverse patient data, including imaging, text, and personalised health records.
arXiv:2606. 16484v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) hold great potential for medicine, as they inherit knowledge from LLM and allow multiple data modalities to be integrated, analysed and interpreted in natural language.
LatentVerse is a new framework that provides a web-based visual analytics platform and a command-line interface for analyzing multimodal latent representations. It unifies diagnostics for representation quality metrics and extends analysis to multimodal settings by decomposing embeddings into shared and modality-specific components. The authors evaluate the tool through simulations, real biomedical data analyses, and a user study, demonstrating its utility for interpretable evaluation of foundation model representations.
arXiv:2606. 06285v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Time series foundation models (TS-FMs) aim to learn generalizable temporal representations that can be adapted to a wide range of downstream tasks.
arXiv:2606. 11190v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Cross-modal alignment (CA) and cross-modal prediction (CP) are the dominant paradigms for multimodal representation learning, yet there is no systematic understanding of when each succeeds, when each fails, and when cross-modal training helps at all -- a gap that leaves practitioners, especially in scientific domains like biomedicine or astrophysics, with heterogeneous instruments and multiple levels of organization and measurement, unable to diagnose why standard methods underperform the best single modality.
arXiv:2505. 19614v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Multimodal learning has seen remarkable progress, particularly with large-scale pre-training across various modalities.
arXiv:2609.17094v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal representation learning seeks shared representations for cross-modal retrieval and knowledge transfer. Hub-based binding reduces pairwise su...
Multimodal fusion learning (MFL) has shown great potential in the medical domain, where we are faced with disparate data modalities such as imaging, clinical records, and omics. However, existing MFL strategies face several major challenges.
