arXiv:2505. 06945v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Multimodal data modeling has emerged as a powerful approach in clinical research, enabling the integration of diverse data types such as imaging, genomics, wearable sensors, and electronic health records.
The paper identifies that in multimodal learning, optimization often produces asymmetric certainty gains, with the stronger modality becoming more confident than the weaker one, which leads to imbalanced contributions and suboptimal performance. The authors attribute this issue to unimodal characteristics and propose a Max Confidence Regularization (MaxCR) method that tracks each modality’s semantic confidence via a nonlinear sparsity measure and applies max suppression and excitation to balance confidence levels. Experiments on standard datasets demonstrate that MaxCR improves overall performance compared to state‑of‑the‑art multimodal baselines.

The paper investigates intersectional biases in multimodal clinical predictions using Electronic Healthcare Records (EHR). It introduces datasets MIMIC-Eye1 and MIMIC-IV ED, applies unified text representations from pre‑trained clinical language models, and benchmarks bias mitigation at the intersectional subgroup level. Results show that subgroup‑specific mitigation is robust across datasets, subgroups, and embeddings, effectively addressing intersectional biases in multimodal settings.
