E-AVI: Evidence-Grounded Multimodal Assessment for Automated Video Interviews

Automated video interview assessment integrates verbal content, acoustic delivery, and visual behavior, yet numerical predictions alone provide limited inspectable support. We present E-AVI, an evidence-grounded framework that extracts timestamped multimodal evidence and integrates dimension-conditioned evidence attention with source-level embeddings for scoring. A shared evidence pool further supports natural-language feedback and follow-up question answering. On RecruitView and a private hospitality dataset, E-AVI consistently outperforms fine-tuned multimodal baselines in rank correlation. Ablation, evidence-deletion, bootstrap, human-audit, and QA analyses characterize the predictive contribution, grounding, and practical utility of the evidence pathway. Together, these results demonstrate that our proposed E-AVI framework improves predictive performance while providing inspectable support for assessment, feedback, and interactive analysis.

Controllable Dysarthric Speech Synthesis with Patient-Specific Conditioning for Speaker-Diverse ASR Augmentation

Dysarthric speech recognition is limited by high speaker variability and scarce labeled data. Existing synthesis methods often couple speaker identity with dysarthric articulation, reducing control over generated speech. We propose a controllable dysarthric speech synthesis framework for ASR augmentation with separate prompt-derived timbre prefixes and learnable patient-specific pathology prefixes. Built on a pre-trained neural codec language model adapted using LoRA, the framework combines both prefixes through additive conditioning. A dual-classifier objective with gradient reversal and voice-conversion-based counterfactual augmentation promotes factor separation, allowing learned pathology conditions to be paired with different target speakers, including healthy speakers. Experiments on TORGO show that generated speech can partially replace real dysarthric training data and provides effective speaker-diverse augmentation when combined with real data. Objective ASR, perceptual, factor-separation, and phoneme-level analyses indicate preservation of target-speaker timbre and pathology-dependent patterns consistent with real dysarthric speech.

3D MedDiffusion: A 3D Medical Latent Diffusion Model for Controllable and High-quality Medical Image Generation

The generation of medical images presents significant challenges due to their high-resolution and three-dimensional nature. Existing methods often yield suboptimal performance in generating high-quality 3D medical images, and there is currently no universal generative framework for medical imaging. In this paper, we introduce a 3D Medical Latent Diffusion (3D MedDiffusion) model for controllable, high-quality 3D medical image generation. 3D MedDiffusion incorporates a novel, highly efficient Patch-Volume Autoencoder that compresses medical images into latent space through patch-wise encoding and recovers back into image space through volume-wise decoding. Additionally, we design a new noise estimator to capture both local details and global structural information during diffusion denoising process. 3D MedDiffusion can generate fine-detailed, high-resolution images (up to 512x512x512) and effectively adapt to various downstream tasks as it is trained on large-scale datasets covering CT and MRI modalities and different anatomical regions (from head to leg). Experimental results demonstrate that 3D MedDiffusion surpasses state-of-the-art methods in generative quality and exhibits strong generalizability across tasks such as sparse-view CT reconstruction, fast MRI reconstruction, and data augmentation for segmentation and classification.

Neural Discrete Representation Learning for Sparse-View CBCT Reconstruction: From Algorithm Design to Prospective Multicenter Clinical Evaluation

Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT)-guided puncture has become an established approach for diagnosing and treating early- to mid-stage thoracic tumours, yet the associated radiation exposure substantially elevates the risk of secondary malignancies. Although multiple low-dose CBCT strategies have been introduced, none have undergone validation using large-scale multicenter retrospective datasets, and prospective clinical evaluation remains lacking. Here, we propose DeepPriorCBCT - a three-stage deep learning framework that achieves diagnostic-grade reconstruction using only one-sixth of the conventional radiation dose. 4102 patients with 8675 CBCT scans from 12 centers were included to develop and validate DeepPriorCBCT. Additionally, a prospective cross-over trial (Registry number: NCT07035977) which recruited 138 patients scheduled for percutaneous thoracic puncture was conducted to assess the model's clinical applicability. Assessment by 11 physicians confirmed that reconstructed images were indistinguishable from original scans. Moreover, diagnostic performance and overall image quality were comparable to those generated by standard reconstruction algorithms. In the prospective trial, five radiologists reported no significant differences in image quality or lesion assessment between DeepPriorCBCT and the clinical standard (all P>0.05). Likewise, 25 interventionalists expressed no preference between model-based and full-sampling images for surgical guidance (Kappa<0.2). Radiation exposure with DeepPriorCBCT was reduced to approximately one-sixth of that with the conventional approach, and collectively, the findings confirm that it enables high-quality CBCT reconstruction under sparse sampling conditions while markedly decreasing intraoperative radiation risk.

Patch Progression Masked Autoencoder with Fusion CNN Network for Classifying Evolution Between Two Pairs of 2D OCT Slices

Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is a prevalent eye condition affecting visual acuity. Anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) treatments have been effective in slowing the progression of neovascular AMD, with better outcomes achieved through timely diagnosis and consistent monitoring. Tracking the progression of neovascular activity in OCT scans of patients with exudative AMD allows for the development of more personalized and effective treatment plans. This was the focus of the Monitoring Age-related Macular Degeneration Progression in Optical Coherence Tomography (MARIO) challenge, in which we participated. In Task 1, which involved classifying the evolution between two pairs of 2D slices from consecutive OCT acquisitions, we employed a fusion CNN network with model ensembling to further enhance the model's performance. For Task 2, which focused on predicting progression over the next three months based on current exam data, we proposed the Patch Progression Masked Autoencoder that generates an OCT for the next exam and then classifies the evolution between the current OCT and the one generated using our solution from Task 1. The results we achieved allowed us to place in the Top 10 for both tasks. Some team members are part of the same organization as the challenge organizers; therefore, we are not eligible to compete for the prize.
