Comparing the Performance of Foundation Model Derived Embeddings with Traditional Approaches for Distant Metastasis Prediction in Head and Neck Cancer

Background: Early prediction of distant metastasis (DM) risk in head and neck cancer (HNC) can enable timely interventions that may improve treatment outcomes. Many current machine learning methods rely on prior knowledge of the region of interest such as tumor segmentations, which require expert knowledge, is time-consuming and introduces user-dependent variability.

FedHisto-PAST: Parameter-Efficient Stain-Aware Federated Learning for Cross-Site Lung Histopathology Classification

FedHisto-PAST v2 is a parameter‑efficient, stain‑aware federated learning framework for cross‑site lung histopathology classification, combining a frozen HIBOU‑B foundation model with techniques such as paired‑view prediction, feature consistency, prototype learning, and adaptive aggregation. In a five‑client, non‑IID simulation and an exploratory LungHist700 cohort, the method achieved a Macro‑F1 of 0.7286 and a balanced accuracy of 0.7305, with the prediction‑level consistency component providing the most clear independent benefit. The framework updated only about 1.25% of the model parameters, demonstrating efficient adaptation while acknowledging limitations in privacy guarantees and clinical validation.

Foundation Models vs. Radiomics for Lung Computed Tomography: A Benchmark of Feature Extractors, Classification Heads, and Segmentation Choices

arXiv:2607. 01001v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Radiomics is the established approach for CT-based lung cancer phenotyping, yet comparisons with foundation models rarely isolate contributions of feature extractor, classification head, and segmentation choice, or test cross-cohort robustness.

Calibrated Selective Prediction Using Deep Ensembles for ROI-Based Thyroid Nodule Ultrasound Classification Under Dataset Shift: A Retrospective Evaluation

arXiv:2607. 12075v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Background: Deep learning models can classify thyroid nodules on ultrasound, but reliable clinical decision support also requires calibrated probabilities, uncertainty estimation, and selective referral, particularly under dataset shift.
