Image-Text Retrieval (ITR) is challenging in bridging visual and lingual modalities. Contrastive learning has been adopted by most prior arts. Except for limited amount of negative image-text pairs, the capability of constrastive learning…
Human Activity Recognition is a field of research where input data can take many forms. Each of the possible input modalities describes human behaviour in a different way, and each has its own strengths and weaknesses. We explore the…
The large amount of time clinicians spend sifting through patient notes and documenting in electronic health records (EHRs) is a leading cause of clinician burnout. By proactively and dynamically retrieving relevant notes during the…
Deep multimodal learning has shown remarkable success by leveraging contrastive learning to capture explicit one-to-one relations across modalities. However, real-world data often exhibits shared relations beyond simple pairwise…
Contrastive learning methods based on InfoNCE loss are popular in node representation learning tasks on graph-structured data. However, its reliance on data augmentation and its quadratic computational complexity might lead to inconsistency…
We introduce EfficientCL, a memory-efficient continual pretraining method that applies contrastive learning with novel data augmentation and curriculum learning. For data augmentation, we stack two types of operation sequentially: cutoff…
Correlation exploitation is essential for efficient multi-user channel estimation (MUCE) in massive MIMO systems. However, the existing works either rely on presumed strong correlation or learn the correlation through large amount of…
In medical time series disease diagnosis, two key challenges are identified. First, the high annotation cost of medical data leads to overfitting in models trained on label-limited, single-center datasets. To address this, we propose…
By summarizing longer consumer health questions into shorter and essential ones, medical question-answering systems can more accurately understand consumer intentions and retrieve suitable answers. However, medical question summarization is…
Multimodal representation learning is commonly built on a shared-private decomposition, treating latent information as either common to all modalities or specific to one. This binary view is often inadequate: many factors are shared by only…
In the dynamic hospital setting, decision support can be a valuable tool for improving patient outcomes. Data-driven inference of future outcomes is challenging in this dynamic setting, where long sequences such as laboratory tests and…
Machine learning methods in healthcare have traditionally focused on using data from a single modality, limiting their ability to effectively replicate the clinical practice of integrating multiple sources of information for improved…
Recent contrastive learning methods have shown to be effective in various tasks, learning generalizable representations invariant to data augmentation thereby leading to state of the art performances. Regarding the multifaceted nature of…
In hospitals, data are siloed to specific information systems that make the same information available under different modalities such as the different medical imaging exams the patient undergoes (CT scans, MRI, PET, Ultrasound, etc.) and…
Medical professionals frequently work in a data constrained setting to provide insights across a unique demographic. A few medical observations, for instance, informs the diagnosis and treatment of a patient. This suggests a unique setting…
Contrastive learning has become a fundamental approach in both uni-modal and multi-modal frameworks. This learning paradigm pulls positive pairs of samples closer while pushing negatives apart. In the uni-modal setting (e.g., image-based…
The advent of the Internet era has led to an explosive growth in the Electronic Health Records (EHR) in the past decades. The EHR data can be regarded as a collection of clinical events, including laboratory results, medication records,…
A key challenge in contrastive learning is to generate negative samples from a large sample set to contrast with positive samples, for learning better encoding of the data. These negative samples often follow a softmax distribution which…
Recent work studies the supervised online continual learning setting where a learner receives a stream of data whose class distribution changes over time. Distinct from other continual learning settings the learner is presented new samples…
Self-Supervised Contrastive Learning has proven effective in deriving high-quality representations from unlabeled data. However, a major challenge that hinders both unimodal and multimodal contrastive learning is feature suppression, a…
