arXiv:2511.22935v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis plays a vital role in the early detection, monitoring, and management of various cardiovascular conditions. While existing models have achieved notable success in ECG interpretation, they fail to leverage the interrelated nature of various cardiac abnormalities. Conversely, developing a specific model capable of extracting all relevant features for multiple ECG tasks remains a significant challenge. Large-scale foundation models, though powerful, are not typically pretrained on ECG data, making full re-training or fine-tuning computationally expensive. To address these challenges, we propose EnECG(Mixture of Experts-based Ensemble Learning for ECG Multi-tasks), an ensemble-based framework that integrates multiple specialized foundation models, each excelling in different aspects of ECG interpretation. Instead of relying on a single model or single task, EnECG leverages the strengths of multiple specialized models to tackle a variety of ECG-based tasks. To mitigate the high computational cost of full re-training or fine-tuning, we introduce a lightweight adaptation strategy: attaching dedicated output layers to each foundation model and applying Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) only to these newly added parameters. We then adopt a Mixture of Experts (MoE) mechanism to learn ensemble weights, effectively combining the complementary expertise of individual models. Our experimental results demonstrate that by minimizing the scope of fine-tuning, EnECG can help reduce computational and memory costs while maintaining the strong representational power of foundation models. This framework not only enhances feature extraction and predictive performance but also ensures practical efficiency for real-world clinical applications.

arXiv:2603.02434v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reliable Alzheimer's disease (AD) diagnosis increasingly relies on multimodal assessments combining structural Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Electronic Health Records (EHR). However, deploying these models is bottlenecked by modality missingness, as MRI scans are expensive and frequently unavailable in many patient cohorts. Furthermore, synthesizing de novo 3D anatomical scans from sparse, high-dimensional tabular records is technically challenging and poses severe clinical risks. To address this, we introduce MIRAGE, a novel framework that reframes the missing-MRI problem as an anatomy-guided cross-modal latent distillation task. First, MIRAGE leverages a Biomedical Knowledge Graph (KG) and Graph Attention Networks to map heterogeneous EHR variables into a unified embedding space that can be propagated from cohorts with real MRIs to cohorts without them. To bridge the semantic gap and enforce physical spatial awareness, we employ a frozen pre-trained 3D U-Net decoder strictly as an auxiliary regularization engine. Supported by a novel cohort-aggregated skip feature compensation strategy, this decoder acts as a rigorous structural penalty, forcing 1D latent representations to encode biologically plausible, macro-level pathological semantics. By exclusively utilizing this distilled "diagnostic-surrogate" representation during inference, MIRAGE completely bypasses computationally expensive 3D voxel reconstruction. Experiments demonstrate that our framework successfully bridges the missing-modality gap, improving the AD classification rate by 13% compared to unimodal baselines in cohorts without real MRIs.
