Modality fusion is a cornerstone of multimodal learning, enabling information integration from diverse data sources. However, existing approaches are limited by $\textbf{(a)}$ their focus on modality correspondences, which neglects heterogeneous interactions between modalities, and $\textbf{(b)}$ th…
Medical multi-modal learning requires an effective fusion capability of various heterogeneous modalities. One vital challenge is how to effectively fuse modalities when their data quality varies across different modalities and patients. For example, in the TCGA benchmark, the performance of the same…
Proficient multilingual speakers often intentionally switch languages in the middle of a conversation. Similarly, recent reasoning-focused bilingual large language models (LLMs) with strong capabilities in both languages exhibit **language mixing**—alternating languages within their chain of thought
Multimodal learning has gained increasing importance across various fields, offering the ability to integrate data from diverse sources such as images, text, and personalized records, which are frequently observed in medical domains. However, in scenarios where some modalities are missing, many exis…
Protein Language Models traditionally depend on Multiple Sequence Alignments (MSA) to incorporate evolutionary knowledge. However, MSA-based approaches suffer from substantial computational overhead and generally underperform in generalizing to de novo proteins. This study reevaluates the role of MS…
Computational predictions of mass spectra from molecules have enabled the discovery of clinically relevant metabolites. However, such predictive tools are still limited as they occupy one of two extremes, either operating (a) by fragmenting molecules combinatorially with overly rigid constraints on…
Many recent approaches to natural language tasks are built on the remarkable abilities of large language models. Large language models can perform in-context learning, where they learn a new task from a few task demonstrations, without any parameter updates. This work examines the implications of in…
