BrainRotViT: Transformer-ResNet Hybrid for Explainable Modeling of Brain Aging from 3D sMRI

arXiv — cs.LGFriday, November 21, 2025 at 5:00:00 AM
  • BrainRotViT introduces a hybrid architecture that merges Vision Transformers with residual CNNs to improve brain age estimation from structural MRI, addressing limitations of traditional methods.
  • This advancement is significant as accurate brain age estimation serves as a valuable biomarker for studying aging and neurodegenerative diseases, potentially aiding in early diagnosis and intervention strategies.
  • The development aligns with ongoing efforts in neuroimaging to enhance predictive modeling of cognitive decline and neurodegeneration, reflecting a broader trend towards integrating advanced machine learning techniques in medical diagnostics.

Knowledge-based learning in Text-RAG and Image-RAG
NeutralArtificial Intelligence
A recent study analyzed the multi-modal approach in the Vision Transformer (EVA-ViT) image encoder combined with LlaMA and ChatGPT large language models (LLMs) to address hallucination issues and enhance disease detection in chest X-ray images. The research utilized the NIH Chest X-ray dataset, comparing image-based and text-based retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) methods, revealing that text-based RAG effectively mitigates hallucinations while image-based RAG improves prediction confidence.
Temporal-Enhanced Interpretable Multi-Modal Prognosis and Risk Stratification Framework for Diabetic Retinopathy (TIMM-ProRS)
PositiveArtificial Intelligence
A novel deep learning framework named TIMM-ProRS has been introduced to enhance the prognosis and risk stratification of diabetic retinopathy (DR), a condition that threatens the vision of millions worldwide. This framework integrates Vision Transformer, Convolutional Neural Network, and Graph Neural Network technologies, utilizing both retinal images and temporal biomarkers to achieve a high accuracy rate of 97.8% across multiple datasets.
