HFBSurv: hierarchical multimodal fusion with factorized bilinear models for cancer survival prediction.

ABSTRACT:

Motivation

Cancer survival prediction can greatly assist clinicians in planning patient treatments and improving their life quality. Recent evidence suggests the fusion of multimodal data, such as genomic data and pathological images, is crucial for understanding cancer heterogeneity and enhancing survival prediction. As a powerful multimodal fusion technique, Kronecker product has shown its superiority in predicting survival. However, this technique introduces a large number of parameters that may lead to high computational cost and a risk of overfitting, thus limiting its applicability and improvement in performance. Another limitation of existing approaches using Kronecker product is that they only mine relations for one single time to learn multimodal representation and therefo
