Multimodal based approaches often outperform single modality approaches in downstream tasks as the different modalities provide complementary information, yet acquiring paired clinical data remains a significant challenge in real world scenarios. While cross-modal knowledge distillation addresses this, existing methods often struggle with large modality gaps and the propagation of noise from uncertain source-domain predictions.
arXiv:2608. 05683v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Cross-modal alignment of visual and textual representations is fundamental to multimodal medical image understanding, yet remains hindered by uncertainty in both modalities under real-world clinical conditions.
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.

arXiv:2606. 15038v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Accurate time-to-event (TTE) prediction from multimodal clinical data remains challenging due to modality imbalance and distribution shift.
Due to the scarcity of expert-annotated data, Semi-Supervised Medical Image Segmentation (SSMIS) has emerged as a promising approach. Many anatomical structures in medical images exhibit significant intra-class heterogeneity, with different regions showing heterogeneous intensity patterns within the same structure.
