Early Warning of Intraoperative Adverse Events via Transformer-Driven Multi-Label Learning

Early warning of intraoperative adverse events plays a vital role in reducing surgical risk and improving patient safety. While deep learning has shown promise in predicting the single adverse event, several key challenges remain: overlooking adverse event dependencies, underutilizing heterogeneous clinical data, and suffering from the class imbalance inherent in medical datasets. To address these issues, we construct the first Multi-label Adverse Events dataset (MuAE) for intraoperative adverse events prediction, covering six critical events. Next, we propose a novel Transformerbased multi-label learning framework (IAENet) that combines an improved Time-Aware Feature-wise Linear Modulation (TAFiLM) module for static covariates and dynamic variables robust fusion and complex temporal dependencies modeling. Furthermore, we introduce a Label-Constrained Reweighting Loss (LCRLoss) with co-occurrence regularization to effectively mitigate intra-event imbalance and enforce structured consistency among frequently co-occurring events. Extensive experiments demonstrate that IAENet consistently outperforms strong baselines on 5, 10, and 15-minute early warning tasks, achieving improvements of +5.05%, +2.82%, and +7.57% on average F1 score. These results highlight the potential of IAENet for supporting intelligent intraoperative decision-making in clinical practice.

VitalBench: A Rigorous Multi-Center Benchmark for Long-Term Vital Sign Prediction in Intraoperative Care

Intraoperative monitoring and prediction of vital signs are critical for ensuring patient safety and improving surgical outcomes. Despite recent advances in deep learning models for medical time-series forecasting, several challenges persist, including the lack of standardized benchmarks, incomplete data, and limited cross-center validation. To address these challenges, we introduce VitalBench, a novel benchmark specifically designed for intraoperative vital sign prediction. VitalBench includes data from over 4,000 surgeries across two independent medical centers, offering three evaluation tracks: complete data, incomplete data, and cross-center generalization. This framework reflects the real-world complexities of clinical practice, minimizing reliance on extensive preprocessing and incorporating masked loss techniques for robust and unbiased model evaluation. By providing a standardized and unified platform for model development and comparison, VitalBench enables researchers to focus on architectural innovation while ensuring consistency in data handling. This work lays the foundation for advancing predictive models for intraoperative vital sign forecasting, ensuring that these models are not only accurate but also robust and adaptable across diverse clinical environments. Our code and data are available at https://github.com/XiudingCai/VitalBench.

MD-Dose: A diffusion model based on the Mamba for radiation dose prediction

Radiation therapy is crucial in cancer treatment. Experienced experts typically iteratively generate high-quality dose distribution maps, forming the basis for excellent radiation therapy plans. Therefore, automated prediction of dose distribution maps is significant in expediting the treatment process and providing a better starting point for developing radiation therapy plans. With the remarkable results of diffusion models in predicting high-frequency regions of dose distribution maps, dose prediction methods based on diffusion models have been extensively studied. However, existing methods mainly utilize CNNs or Transformers as denoising networks. CNNs lack the capture of global receptive fields, resulting in suboptimal prediction performance. Transformers excel in global modeling but face quadratic complexity with image size, resulting in significant computational overhead. To tackle these challenges, we introduce a novel diffusion model, MD-Dose, based on the Mamba architecture for predicting radiation therapy dose distribution in thoracic cancer patients. In the forward process, MD-Dose adds Gaussian noise to dose distribution maps to obtain pure noise images. In the backward process, MD-Dose utilizes a noise predictor based on the Mamba to predict the noise, ultimately outputting the dose distribution maps. Furthermore, We develop a Mamba encoder to extract structural information and integrate it into the noise predictor for localizing dose regions in the planning target volume (PTV) and organs at risk (OARs). Through extensive experiments on a dataset of 300 thoracic tumor patients, we showcase the superiority of MD-Dose in various metrics and time consumption.

BSDA: Bayesian Random Semantic Data Augmentation for Medical Image Classification

Data augmentation is a crucial regularization technique for deep neural networks, particularly in medical image classification. Mainstream data augmentation (DA) methods are usually applied at the image level. Due to the specificity and diversity of medical imaging, expertise is often required to design effective DA strategies, and improper augmentation operations can degrade model performance. Although automatic augmentation methods exist, they are computationally intensive. Semantic data augmentation can implemented by translating features in feature space. However, over-translation may violate the image label. To address these issues, we propose \emph{Bayesian Random Semantic Data Augmentation} (BSDA), a computationally efficient and handcraft-free feature-level DA method. BSDA uses variational Bayesian to estimate the distribution of the augmentable magnitudes, and then a sample from this distribution is added to the original features to perform semantic data augmentation. We performed experiments on nine 2D and five 3D medical image datasets. Experimental results show that BSDA outperforms current DA methods. Additionally, BSDA can be easily assembled into CNNs or Transformers as a plug-and-play module, improving the network's performance. The code is available online at \url{https://github.com/YaoyaoZhu19/BSDA}.

MambaTS: Improved Selective State Space Models for Long-term Time Series Forecasting

In recent years, Transformers have become the de-facto architecture for long-term time series forecasting (LTSF), yet they face challenges associated with the self-attention mechanism, including quadratic complexity and permutation-invariant bias. This raises an important question: \emph{do we truly need self-attention to model long-range dependencies in LTSF?} To address this, we propose MambaTS, a linear-scan-based framework that models global dependencies across time and variables via structured dependency modeling. Since explicit variable dependency structures are often unknown, we introduce Variable-Aware Scan along Time (VAST), which learns inter-variable relationships during training and determines an optimal scan order via a shortest-path-based decoding strategy during inference. MambaTS employs the latest Mamba model as its backbone. We suggest that the causal convolution in the vanilla Mamba is unnecessary due to the presence of independent variables, leading to the development of the Temporal Mamba Block (TMB). To mitigate model overfitting, we further incorporate a dropout mechanism for selective parameters in TMB. Extensive experiments conducted on eight public datasets demonstrate that MambaTS achieves competitive or state-of-the-art performance on most datasets.

SP-DiffDose: A Conditional Diffusion Model for Radiation Dose Prediction Based on Multi-Scale Fusion of Anatomical Structures, Guided by SwinTransformer and Projector

Radiation therapy serves as an effective and standard method for cancer treatment. Excellent radiation therapy plans always rely on high-quality dose distribution maps obtained through repeated trial and error by experienced experts. However, due to individual differences and complex clinical situations, even seasoned expert teams may need help to achieve the best treatment plan every time quickly. Many automatic dose distribution prediction methods have been proposed recently to accelerate the radiation therapy planning process and have achieved good results. However, these results suffer from over-smoothing issues, with the obtained dose distribution maps needing more high-frequency details, limiting their clinical application. To address these limitations, we propose a dose prediction diffusion model based on SwinTransformer and a projector, SP-DiffDose. To capture the direct correlation between anatomical structure and dose distribution maps, SP-DiffDose uses a structural encoder to extract features from anatomical images, then employs a conditional diffusion process to blend noise and anatomical images at multiple scales and gradually map them to dose distribution maps. To enhance the dose prediction distribution for organs at risk, SP-DiffDose utilizes SwinTransformer in the deeper layers of the network to capture features at different scales in the image. To learn good representations from the fused features, SP-DiffDose passes the fused features through a designed projector, improving dose prediction accuracy. Finally, we evaluate SP-DiffDose on an internal dataset. The results show that SP-DiffDose outperforms existing methods on multiple evaluation metrics, demonstrating the superiority and generalizability of our method.
