NeoRed: A Knowledge-Logic-Alignment Multimodal Large Language Model for Neonatal Respiratory Disease Diagnosis

Neonatal respiratory diseases are a major cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality, posing substantial challenges in clinical practice. Despite recent advances, existing Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) face two key limitations in neonatal diagnosis: (1) domain gap arising from predominantly adult training data; (2) insufficient integration of multidimensional clinical context for accurate diagnosis. To address these challenges, we collect two real-world clinical datasets (NeoCXR and NeoCXR-EV) and propose NeoRed, to the best of our knowledge, the first MLLM tailored for neonatal respiratory disease, filling the gap in neonatal diagnostic reports generation. To enhance joint diagnosis from heterogeneous clinical context and chest X-rays, we design a novel Knowledge-Logic-Alignment (KLA) framework which constrains model behavior from three perspectives: 1) Knowledge Prior Injection (KPI) incorporates neonatologist-inspired diagnostic priors into multimodal representations, guiding disease-specific attention across modalities; 2) Diagnostic Logic Constraint (DLC) aligns the semantics of generated reports with multimodal diagnostic logic; and 3) Visual Semantic Alignment (VSA) establishes semantic correspondence between visual features and imaging conclusions. Extensive experiments demonstrate that NeoRed enables accurate neonatal diagnostic reports generation, achieving ROUGE-L of 53.29% and Clinical Efficacy F1 score of 65.19% on NeoCXR, outperforming existing MLLMs. NeoRed also preserves competitive report generation performance on adult benchmarks (MIMIC-CXR and IU-Xray). Datasets will be available upon application.

Feature Reconfiguration With Visual Prior for Medical Lesion Segmentation

Lesion segmentation in medical images plays a critical role in clinical diagnosis and treatment planning. Despite significant advances, lesion segmentation remains challenging due to two major factors: (1) complex background interference; (2) diverse lesion morphology. Existing encoder-decoder based methods mainly focus on enhancing feature extraction or redesigning decoding strategies. However, they lack early prior guidance and feature reconfiguration during the encoding stage, limiting their effectiveness in handling these challenges. To address these limitations, we propose FreNet, a feature reconfiguration framework with visual priors, which performs pixel-level reconfiguration before encoding and feature-level reconfiguration during encoding for precise medical lesion segmentation. To suppress background responses, we propose an Implicit Prior Neural Network (IPNN), which models a continuous spatial field and leverages visual prior from SAM to reconfigure input image before encoding stage. To better handle diverse lesion morphology, we design a Dual-domain Feature Reconfiguration (DFR) module to progressively reconfigure backbone features during encoding stage. Within DFR, the Frequency Decoupling Module (FDM) decouples backbone features in frequency domain to enhance foreground-background discriminability, while the Spatial Localization Module (SLM) spatially relocates and improving spatial stability after frequency decoupling. Extensive experiments on 9 medical image segmentation benchmarks across three imaging modalities demonstrate that FreNet significantly outperforms state-of-the-art (SOTA) methods. On the challenging ETIS dataset, our method achieves Dice improvements of 5.0% over SOTA method and 7.2% over SAM.

LLM-Based Knowledge Graph Completion Combining Discrete Structural Coding with Similar Entity Information

Knowledge graph completion requires models to use both textual descriptions and relational structure. Existing LLM-based methods either encode KG structure as discrete tokens or refine a restricted set of candidate entities, and these two directions have largely been studied separately. We propose CoSC for LLM-based KGC, which combines discrete structural coding with similar entity information. Specifically, an LLM generates an initial candidate entity ranking from discrete structural codes, after which information from entities with structures similar to that of the query entity refines the ranking. Experiments on FB15k-237 show that CoSC outperforms existing baselines on MRR and Hits@10 while remaining competitive on Hits@1.
