Promoting Cross-Modal Representations to Improve Multimodal Foundation Models for Physiological Signals
Many healthcare applications are inherently multimodal, involving several physiological signals. As sensors for these signals become more common, improving machine learning methods for multimodal healthcare data is crucial. Pretraining foundation models is a promising avenue for success. However, methods for developing foundation models in healthcare are still in early exploration and it is unclear which pretraining strategies are most effective given the diversity of physiological signals. This is partly due to challenges in multimodal health data: obtaining data across many patients is…
This paper was accepted at the Workshop on Navigating and Addressing Data Problems for Foundation Models (NADPFM) at ICLR 2026. Principled domain reweighting can substantially improve sample efficiency and downstream generalization; however, data-mixture optimization for multimodal pretraining remains underexplored. Current multimodal training recipes tune mixtures from only a single perspective…
Pretraining robust vision or multimodal foundation models (e.g., CLIP) relies on large-scale datasets that may be noisy, potentially misaligned, and have long-tail distributions. Previous works have shown promising results in augmenting datasets by generating synthetic samples. However, they only support domain-specific ad hoc use cases (e.g., either image or text…
Wearable devices record physiological and behavioral signals that can improve health predictions. While foundation models are increasingly used for such predictions, they have been primarily applied to low-level sensor data, despite behavioral data often being more informative due to their alignment with physiologically relevant timescales and quantities. We develop foundation…
