MIST: Multimodal Survival Prediction with Genomic-Guided Histology Attention
Quick summary
arXiv:2609.21811v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal survival models can combine complementary prognostic information from whole-slide images and genomic profiles, but effective fusion remains challenging amid external cohort shift and computational complexity. To address these challenges, we propose MIST, multimodal survival prediction with genomic-guided histology attention. MIST represents genomic features as tokens and allows them to query compact foundation-model-derived histology context tokens before survival prediction. This design enriches molecular information with histology co
