FedCoRe: Target-Adaptive Completion for Missing Modalities in Healthcare Federated Learning

Read the original on arXiv AI →

FedCoRe is a federated learning framework that addresses missing modalities in healthcare by learning representation- or logit-space corrections instead of generating synthetic data. In a MIMIC-derived respiratory deterioration task, the method uses paired examples where a modality is present or absent to train a completion module, achieving partial recovery of performance lost when modalities like ECG or CXR are hidden. The approach emphasizes validation-gated deployment, ensuring that completion is only applied when paired examples and validation evidence support the presence of the missing modality.

FedCoRe: Target-Adaptive Completion for Missing Modalities in Healthcare Federated Learning

FedCoRe is a federated learning framework that addresses missing modalities in healthcare by learning representation- or logit-space corrections instead of generating synthetic data. In a MIMIC-derived respiratory deterioration task, the method uses paired examples where a modality is present during training but may be absent at deployment, allowing only those clients to update the completion module. Experiments show that FedCoRe can recover roughly half of the performance lost when ECG or CXR data are hidden, but the framework should only be deployed when paired examples and validation evidence confirm the modality’s presence.

Multimodal Federated Learning under Dual-Axis Modality Missingness

arXiv:2608. 09240v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal federated learning (FL) supports collaborative modeling in privacy-sensitive health-sensing and medical settings, but realistic deployments often exhibit dual-axis modality missingness: clients have different modality sets, and individual samples may contain only subsets of the modalities available locally.

Autoregressive EHR Foundation Models with Multimodal Inputs

arXiv:2607. 22264v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autoregressive foundation models trained on tokenized electronic health records (EHRs) can support zero-shot clinical prediction, yet most operate on structured event codes alone, and do not incorporate multiple modalities in a principled way.
