RadJEPA: Radiology Encoder for Chest X-Rays via Joint Embedding Predictive Architecture

Vision-language pretraining has driven progress in medical image representation learning, but it depends on paired image-text data and can inherit reporting bias from clinical narratives. We study whether language-free predictive pretraining can produce an image encoder that transfers effectively to radiology report generation. RadJEPA is a chest-X-ray adaptation of I-JEPA, pretrained on approximately 840K unlabeled radiographs using latent context-to-target prediction. Our primary contribution is an extensive empirical evaluation of this language-free encoder for report generation: the frozen image encoder is coupled to a trainable two-layer projector and language decoder, and is also substituted into four established vision-language backbones. Across MIMIC-CXR and IU-Xray, RadJEPA matches or exceeds the evaluated image-only and image-text baselines on lexical, entity-relation, and clinical-label metrics. Controlled MIMIC-only comparisons provide evidence that the predictive objective contributes beyond domain-specific pretraining, while broader comparisons also reflect differences in pretraining data, model capacity, and input resolution. Complementary classification and segmentation experiments assess transfer beyond report generation.

Early Exit and Multi Stage Knowledge Distillation in VLMs for Video Summarization

We introduce DEEVISum (Distilled Early Exit Vision language model for Summarization), a lightweight, efficient, and scalable vision language model designed for segment wise video summarization. Leveraging multi modal prompts that combine textual and audio derived signals, DEEVISum incorporates Multi Stage Knowledge Distillation (MSKD) and Early Exit (EE) to strike a balance between performance and efficiency. MSKD offers a 1.33% absolute F1 improvement over baseline distillation (0.5%), while EE reduces inference time by approximately 21% with a 1.3 point drop in F1. Evaluated on the TVSum dataset, our best model PaLI Gemma2 3B + MSKD achieves an F1 score of 61.1, competing the performance of significantly larger models, all while maintaining a lower computational footprint. We publicly release our code and processed dataset to support further research.

Sumotosima: A Framework and Dataset for Classifying and Summarizing Otoscopic Images

Otoscopy is a diagnostic procedure to examine the ear canal and eardrum using an otoscope. It identifies conditions like infections, foreign bodies, ear drum perforations and ear abnormalities. We propose a novel resource efficient deep learning and transformer based framework, Sumotosima (Summarizer for otoscopic images), an end-to-end pipeline for classification followed by summarization. Our framework works on combination of triplet and cross-entropy losses. Additionally, we use Knowledge Enhanced Multimodal BART whose input is fused textual and image embedding. The objective is to provide summaries that are well-suited for patients, ensuring clarity and efficiency in understanding otoscopic images. Given the lack of existing datasets, we have curated our own OCASD (Otoscopic Classification And Summary Dataset), which includes 500 images with 5 unique categories annotated with their class and summaries by Otolaryngologists. Sumotosima achieved a result of 98.03%, which is 7.00%, 3.10%, 3.01% higher than K-Nearest Neighbors, Random Forest and Support Vector Machines, respectively, in classification tasks. For summarization, Sumotosima outperformed GPT-4o and LLaVA by 88.53% and 107.57% in ROUGE scores, respectively. We have made our code and dataset publicly available at https://github.com/anas2908/Sumotosima
