Longitudinal Risk Prediction in Mammography with Privileged History Distillation

The paper introduces SEM‑HD, a framework that leverages longitudinal mammography history as privileged information during training to improve risk prediction while requiring only a single current exam at inference. By having a student model predict latent representations of past visits and using teacher supervision from actual longitudinal data, SEM‑HD preserves temporal modeling benefits without needing prior exams at deployment. Experiments on three cohorts and two backbone architectures show consistent gains in long‑horizon AUC and pAUC, especially in low false‑positive‑rate regions, and recover much of the performance gap to full‑history models.

Integrating AI for Human-Centric Breast Cancer Diagnostics: A Multi-Scale and Multi-View Swin Transformer Framework

The paper presents MSMV‑Swin, a hybrid multi‑scale and multi‑view Swin Transformer framework that integrates the Segment Anything Model to isolate breast lobes and reduce background noise. It captures both localized tumor regions and surrounding tissue context, aligning its outputs with radiologists’ interpretation of mammograms. A hybrid fusion structure is added to maintain robustness when one or more mammogram views are missing during testing.

OncoVision: Integrating Mammography and Clinical Data through Attention-Driven Multimodal AI for Enhanced Breast Cancer Diagnosis

OncoVision is a privileged‑information training framework that learns from mammography images and clinical data during training but performs inference using only mammographic images. It employs an attention‑based encoder‑decoder to jointly segment masses, calcifications, axillary findings, and breast tissue, and predicts ten structured clinical features such as BI‑RADS. Two late‑fusion strategies (Independent and Dependent) integrate imaging, radiomic, and clinical information to improve diagnostic precision, and a retrospective multi‑reader study showed higher diagnostic confidence, reduced reading time, and segmentation accuracy comparable to or better than radiologists.

Token-Based Dual-view Fusion and Adaptation of Large Vision Models for Breast Cancer Classification

Accurate breast cancer classification from mammography requires effective integration of complementary information from craniocaudal (CC) and mediolateral oblique (MLO) views, which provide a more complete characterization of breast abnormalities. However, existing multi-view learning approaches typically rely on feature-level aggregation or single-stage cross-attention, which can entangle view-specific and shared representations and restrict interaction to limited network depths.
