An Intelligent Decision Support System for Emotion Monitoring using Microscopic Fixational Dynamics

The rising prevalence of psychological disorders necessitates effective emotion monitoring, yet current methods relying on facial or physiological signals often suffer from intrusiveness and privacy issues. This paper proposes an intelligent decision support system and pervasive edge-computing framework that leverages smart glasses and a companion smartphone to infer emotional states from microscopic visual fixation patterns. Moving beyond traditional macroscopic gaze metrics, the proposed system extracts and decomposes three distinct neurophysiological micro-movements: microsaccades, ocular drifts, and ocular microtremors. We introduce an interpretable hybrid artificial intelligence pipeline combining a multi-head attention mechanism, extreme gradient boosting, and a support vector machine to extract deep temporal features, quantify their physiological importance, and perform efficient on-device classification. Through an extensive evaluation involving 60 volunteers, we rigorously validate the framework under a strict leave-one-subject-out cross-validation protocol across both controlled and naturalistic mobile scenarios. Ablation studies unequivocally demonstrate that these fixational micro-movements are substantially more discriminative for emotion inference than traditional macroscopic features. Furthermore, aligned with contemporary affective science, the system incorporates a few-shot personalization mechanism to bridge universal physiological baselines with individual emotional heterogeneity, achieving a highly robust personalized F1-score of 83.6%. This work establishes a physiologically interpretable, unobtrusive, and deployable paradigm for continuous real-time emotion monitoring.

MIND: Multimodal Intent-Driven Network via Diffusion Transformers for Medical Image Fusion

Medical image fusion aims to integrate complementary information from diverse imaging modalities to support clinical diagnosis. Existing methods typically apply uniform fusion rules globally, lacking a deep understanding of diagnostic intents and pathological structures. To address these limitations, we propose MIND, a Multimodal Intent-Driven Network via Diffusion Transformers (DiTs) for medical image fusion. Specifically, we utilize BioMedGPT to generate intent-driven fusion texts from source images, guiding the fusion process with pathology-aware diagnostic intents. To combat the loss of 2D spatial continuity caused by 1D sequence flattening in DiTs, we design a Multi-scale Latent Adapter. This module explicitly extracts source image features before serialization, injecting them into the network via strict dimensional alignment to effectively supplement image features. To resolve the semantic shift caused by decoupling image outputs from diagnostic intents, we design a medical semantic consistency loss. This loss ensures deep semantic locking between fused images and fusion texts while maintaining the stability of the underlying physical manifold reconstruction. Comprehensive experiments on the Harvard, BraTS, and GFP datasets reveal that MIND delivers superior fusion quality, significantly improves downstream brain tumor segmentation accuracy, and enables flexible interactive fusion, holding significant promise for intent-driven intelligent clinical decision support systems.

SCALPEL: Semantic Cross-modal Alignment via LLM-Powered Encoder Learning for Medical Vision-Language Representation

Vision-language pre-training (VLP) serves as a cornerstone for medical multimodal representation learning. However, existing medical VLP frameworks are often constrained by the limited context windows and shallow representational capacities of lightweight text encoders when processing lengthy, terminology-dense clinical reports. While integrating medical large language models (LLMs) offers unprecedented clinical reasoning capabilities, it introduces three major bottlenecks: (i) the anisotropic representational collapse of generative LLMs under standard contrastive objectives, (ii) the prohibitive memory overhead of joint end-to-end training with large batch sizes, and (iii) the medical hallucinations induced by vanilla contrastive losses that ignore fine-grained anatomical laterality and negation modifiers. To address these challenges, we propose \textbf{SCALPEL}, a \textbf{S}emantic \textbf{C}ross-modal \textbf{A}lignment framework via \textbf{L}LM-\textbf{P}owered \textbf{E}ncoder \textbf{L}earning. First, Clinical Report Contrastive fine-tuning converts a generative LLM into an isotropic encoder via domain-specific clinical text adaptation. Second, an asymmetric alignment strategy leverages offline feature caching to enable efficient training. Critically, we formulate an Anatomy-Negation Aware Objective that explicitly penalizes mismatched image-text pairs involving laterality confusion or false negations. Extensive experiments across MIMIC-CXR, CheXpert, and IU X-Ray benchmarks demonstrate that SCALPEL achieves state-of-the-art performance in cross-modal retrieval, zero-shot disease classification and medical visual question answering.

ITCFN: Incomplete Triple-Modal Co-Attention Fusion Network for Mild Cognitive Impairment Conversion Prediction

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a common neurodegenerative disease among the elderly. Early prediction and timely intervention of its prodromal stage, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), can decrease the risk of advancing to AD. Combining information from various modalities can significantly improve predictive accuracy. However, challenges such as missing data and heterogeneity across modalities complicate multimodal learning methods as adding more modalities can worsen these issues. Current multimodal fusion techniques often fail to adapt to the complexity of medical data, hindering the ability to identify relationships between modalities. To address these challenges, we propose an innovative multimodal approach for predicting MCI conversion, focusing specifically on the issues of missing positron emission tomography (PET) data and integrating diverse medical information. The proposed incomplete triple-modal MCI conversion prediction network is tailored for this purpose. Through the missing modal generation module, we synthesize the missing PET data from the magnetic resonance imaging and extract features using specifically designed encoders. We also develop a channel aggregation module and a triple-modal co-attention fusion module to reduce feature redundancy and achieve effective multimodal data fusion. Furthermore, we design a loss function to handle missing modality issues and align cross-modal features. These components collectively harness multimodal data to boost network performance. Experimental results on the ADNI1 and ADNI2 datasets show that our method significantly surpasses existing unimodal and other multimodal models.
