CoMLP introduces a cooperatively-gated MLP module that fuses multimodal medical data—such as imaging modalities and clinical reports—without relying on computationally heavy cross-attention. The module uses regional and dilated MLP interactions to capture both local and global cross-modal dependencies, enabling fine-grained fusion at high spatial resolutions. Experiments on five segmentation benchmarks, covering 2D/3D images and diverse anatomical regions, show consistent improvements over state-of-the-art multi-modal and language-guided methods, highlighting the effectiveness of MLP-based interaction for medical image segmentation.

Multi-modality image fusion (MMIF) enhances scene representation by exploiting complementary cues from different modalities. Adverse weather, however, causes significant image degradation, disrupting feature representation and requiring simultaneous feature restoration and cross-modal complementarity.
Color Fundus Photography (CFP) is a primary non-invasive imaging modality for large-scale screening of ophthalmic and systemic diseases. Existing surveys mainly summarize task-specific algorithms, datasets, or preprocessing techniques independently, lacking a unified perspective on their co-evolution with modern artificial intelligence.
The paper introduces Fusion Anything Model (FAM), a foundation model designed for generalized multimodal data fusion that can handle arbitrary modality combinations and prediction tasks. FAM is trained on large-scale synthetic multimodal datasets generated via Structural Multimodal Causal Models (SMCMs), enabling it to encode transferable multimodal correlations. Experiments on 18 real-world datasets across 12 modalities and 11 tasks show that FAM performs competitively with specialized models without requiring task-specific adaptation.
