ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Typographic attacks exploit multi-modal systems by injecting text into images, leading to targeted misclassifications, malicious content generation and even Vision-Language Model jailbreaks. In this work, we analyze how CLIP vision encoders behave under typographic attacks, locating specialized attention heads in the latter half of the model's layers that causally extract and transmit typographic information to the cls token. Building on these insights, we introduce Dyslexify - a method to defend CLIP models against typographic attacks by selectively ablating a typographic circuit, consisting of attention heads. Without requiring finetuning, dyslexify improves performance by up to 22.06\% on a typographic variant of ImageNet-100, while reducing standard ImageNet-100 accuracy by less than 1\%, and demonstrate its utility in a medical foundation model for skin lesion diagnosis.

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. The human brain is the most efficient and versatile system for processing dynamic visual input. By comparing representations from deep video models to brain activity, we can gain insights into mechanistic solutions for effective video processing, important to better understand the brain and to build better models. Current works in model-brain alignment primarily focus on fMRI measurements, leaving open questions about fine-grained dynamic processing. Here, we introduce the first large-scale model benchmarking on alignment to dynamic electroencephalography (EEG) recordings of short natural videos. We analyze 100+ models across the axes of temporal integration, classification task, architecture, and pretraining, using our proposed Cross-Temporal Representational Similarity Analysis (CT-RSA) which matches the best time-unfolded model features to dynamically evolving brain responses, distilling $10^7$ alignment scores.

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Subsampling significantly reduces the number of measurements, thereby streamlining data processing and transfer overhead, and shortening acquisition time across diverse real-world applications. The recently introduced Active Deep Probabilistic Subsampling (A-DPS) approach jointly optimizes both the subsampling pattern and the downstream task model, enabling instance- and subject-specific sampling trajectories and effective adaptation to new data at inference time. However, this approach does not fully leverage valuable dataset priors and relies on top-1 sampling, which can impede the optimization process. Herein, we enhance A-DPS by integrating a deterministic (fixed) prior-informed sampling pattern derived from the training dataset, along with group-based sampling via top-k sampling, to achieve more robust optimization—method we call Prior-aware and context-guided Group-based Active DPS (PGA-DPS).

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Few-shot Whole Slide Image (WSI) classification is severely hampered by overfitting. We argue that this is not merely a data-scarcity issue but a fundamentally geometric problem. Grounded in the manifold hypothesis, our analysis shows that features from pathology foundation models exhibit a low-dimensional manifold geometry that is easily perturbed by downstream models. This insight reveals a key potential issue in downstream multiple instance learning models: linear layers are geometry-agnostic and, as we show empirically, can distort the manifold geometry of the features. To address this, we propose the Manifold Residual (MR) block, a plug-and-play module that is explicitly geometry-aware. Code/project link: https://github.com/BearCleverProud/MR-Block

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Accurate cell instance segmentation is foundational for digital pathology analysis. Existing methods based on contour detection and distance mapping still face significant challenges in processing complex and dense cellular regions. Graph coloring-based methods provide a new paradigm for this task, yet the effectiveness of this paradigm in real-world scenarios with dense overlaps and complex topologies has not been verified. Addressing this issue, we release a large-scale dataset GBC-FS 2025, which contains highly complex and dense sub-cellular nuclear arrangements. We conduct the first systematic analysis of the chromatic properties of cell adjacency graphs across four diverse datasets and reveal an important discovery: most real-world cell graphs are non-bipartite, with a high prevalence of odd-length cycles (predominantly triangles).

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Learning from multi-variate time-series with heterogeneous channel configurations remains a fundamental challenge for deep neural networks, particularly in clinical domains such as intracranial electroencephalography (iEEG), where channel setups vary widely across subjects. In this work, we introduce multi-variate parallel attention (MVPA), a novel self-attention mechanism that disentangles content, temporal, and spatial attention, enabling flexible, generalizable, and efficient modeling of time-series data with varying channel counts and configurations. We use MVPA to build MVPFormer, a generative foundation model for human electrophysiology, trained to predict the evolution of iEEG signals across diverse subjects. To support this and future efforts by the community, we release the SWEC iEEG dataset, the largest publicly available iEEG dataset to date, comprising nearly 10,000 hours of recordings from heterogeneous clinical sources.

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Modeling the temporal dynamics of the human brain remains a core challenge in computational neuroscience and artificial intelligence. Traditional methods often ignore the biological spike characteristics of brain activity and find it difficult to reveal the dynamic dependencies and causal interactions between brain regions, limiting their effectiveness in brain function research and clinical applications. To address this issue, we propose a Spike-based Digital Brain (Spike-DB), a novel fundamental model that introduces the spike computing paradigm into brain time series modeling. Spike-DB encodes fMRI signals as spike trains and learns the temporal driving relationships between anchor and target regions to achieve high-precision prediction of brain activity and reveal underlying causal dependencies and dynamic relationship characteristics.

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Adapters have become a widely adopted strategy for efficient fine-tuning of foundation models, particularly in resource-constrained settings. However, their performance under extreme data scarcity—common in medical imaging due to high annotation costs, privacy regulations, and fragmented datasets—remains underexplored. In this work, we present the first comprehensive study of adapter-based fine-tuning for vision foundation models in low-data medical imaging scenarios. We find that, contrary to their promise, conventional Adapters can degrade performance under severe data constraints, performing even worse than simple linear probing when trained on less than 1\% of the corresponding training data.

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of mortality worldwide. Electrocardiograms (ECGs) are the most widely used non-invasive tool for cardiac assessment, yet large, well-annotated ECG corpora are scarce due to cost, privacy, and workflow constraints. Generating ECGs can aid mechanistic understanding of cardiac electrical activity, enable the construction of large, heterogeneous, and unbiased datasets, and facilitate privacy-preserving data sharing. Generating realistic ECG signals from clinical context is important yet underexplored. Recent work has leveraged diffusion models for text-to-ECG generation, but two challenges remain: (i) existing methods often overlook physiological simulator knowledge of cardiac activity; and (ii) they ignore broader, experience-based clinical knowledge grounded in real-world practice.

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Surgical triplet detection is a critical task in surgical video analysis, with significant implications for performance assessment and training novice surgeons. However, existing datasets like CholecT50 lack precise spatial bounding box annotations, rendering triplet classification at the image level insufficient for practical applications. The inclusion of bounding box annotations is essential to make this task meaningful, as they provide the spatial context necessary for accurate analysis and improved model generalizability. To address these shortcomings, we introduce ProstaTD, a large-scale, multi-institutional dataset for surgical triplet detection, developed from the technically demanding domain of robot-assisted prostatectomy.

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Enabling natural communication through brain–computer interfaces (BCIs) remains one of the most profound challenges in neuroscience and neurotechnology. While existing frameworks offer partial solutions, they are constrained by oversimplified semantic representations and a lack of interpretability. To overcome these limitations, we introduce **Semantic Intent Decoding(SID)**, a novel framework that translates neural activity into natural language by modeling meaning as a flexible set of compositional semantic units. SID is built on three core principles: semantic compositionality, continuity and expandability of semantic space, and fidelity in reconstruction.

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Samples of brain signals collected by EEG sensors have inherent anti-correlations that are well modeled by negative edges in a finite graph. To differentiate epilepsy patients from healthy subjects using collected EEG signals, we build lightweight and interpretable transformer-like neural nets by unrolling a spectral denoising algorithm for signals on a balanced signed graph---graph with no cycles of odd number of negative edges. A balanced signed graph has well-defined frequencies that map to a corresponding positive graph via similarity transform of the graph Laplacian matrices. We implement an ideal low-pass filter efficiently on the mapped positive graph via Lanczos approximation, where the optimal cutoff frequency is learned from data.

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) provides non-invasive access to dynamic brain activity by measuring blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) signals over time. However, the resource-intensive nature of fMRI acquisition limits the availability of high-fidelity samples required for data-driven brain analysis models. While modern generative models can synthesize fMRI data, they often remain challenging in replicating their inherent non-stationarity, intricate spatiotemporal dynamics, and physiological variations of raw BOLD signals. To address these challenges, we propose Dual-Spectral Flow Matching (DSFM), a novel fMRI generative framework that cascades dual frequency representation of BOLD signals with spectral flow matching.

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Class-incremental learning (CIL) in medical image-guided diagnosis requires models to preserve knowledge of historical disease classes while adapting to emerging categories. Pre-trained models (PTMs) with well-generalized features provide a strong foundation, yet most PTM-based CIL strategies, such as prompt tuning, task-specific adapters and model mixtures, rely on increasingly complex designs. While effective in general-domain benchmarks, these methods falter in medical imaging, where low intra-class variability and high inter-domain shifts (from scanners, protocols and institutions) make CIL particularly prone to representation collapse and domain misalignment. Under such conditions, we find that lightweight representation calibration strategies, often dismissed in general-domain CIL for their modest gains, can be remarkably effective for adapting PTMs in medical settings.

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Multiple Instance Learning (MIL) is the predominant framework for classifying gigapixel whole-slide images in computational pathology. MIL follows a sequence of 1) extracting patch features, 2) applying a linear layer to obtain task-specific patch features, and 3) aggregating the patches into a slide feature for classification. While substantial efforts have been devoted to optimizing patch feature extraction and aggregation, none have yet addressed the second point, the critical layer which transforms general-purpose features into task-specific features. We hypothesize that this layer constitutes an overlooked performance bottleneck and that stronger representations can be achieved with a low-rank transformation tailored to each patch's phenotype, yielding synergistic effects with any of the existing MIL approaches.

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Healthcare data, such as Intensive Care Unit (ICU) records, comprise heterogeneous multivariate time series sampled at irregular intervals with pervasive missingness. However, clinical applications demand predictive models that are both accurate and interpretable. We present our Graph Attention-based Relational Learning for Intensive Care (GARLIC) model, a novel neural network architecture that imputes missing data through a learnable exponential-decay encoder, captures inter-sensor dependencies via time-lagged summary graphs, and fuses global patterns with cross-dimensional sequential attention. All attention weights and graph edges are learned end-to-end to serve as built-in observation-, signal-, and edge-level explanations.

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Medical time series (MedTS) classification suffers from poor generalizability in real-world deployment due to inter- and intra-dataset heterogeneity, such as varying numbers of channels, signal lengths, task definitions, and patient characteristics. % implicit patient characteristics, variable channel configurations, time series lengths, and diagnostic tasks. To address this, we propose FORMED, a novel framework for repurposing a backbone foundation model, pre-trained on generic time series, to enable highly generalizable MedTS classification on unseen datasets. FORMED combines the backbone with a novel classifier comprising two components: (1) task-specific channel embeddings and label queries, dynamically sized to match any number of channels and target classes, and (2) a shared decoding attention layer, jointly trained across datasets to capture medical domain knowledge through task-agnostic feature-query interactions.

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Interpreting clinical electroencephalography (EEG) is a laborious, subjective process, and existing computational models are limited to narrow classification tasks rather than holistic interpretation. A key bottleneck for applying powerful Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) to this domain is the scarcity of datasets pairing EEG visualizations with fine-grained, expert-level annotations. We address this by introducing CerebraGloss, an instruction-tuned LVLM for nuanced EEG interpretation. We first introduce a novel, automated data generation pipeline, featuring a bespoke YOLO-based waveform detector, to programmatically create a large-scale corpus of EEG-text instruction data.

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Self-supervised pre-training has emerged as a critical paradigm for learning transferable representations from unlabeled medical volumetric data. Masked autoencoder based methods have garnered significant attention, yet their application to volumetric medical image faces fundamental limitations from the discrete voxel-level reconstruction objective, which neglects comprehensive anatomical structure continuity. To address this challenge, We propose MedGMAE, a novel framework that replaces traditional voxel reconstruction with 3D Gaussian primitives reconstruction as new perspectives on representation learning. Our approach learns to predict complete sets of 3D Gaussian parameters as semantic abstractions to represent the entire 3D volume, from sparse visible image patches.

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. The 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) is a long-standing diagnostic tool. Yet machine learning for ECG interpretation remains fragmented, often limited to narrow tasks or datasets. FMs promise broader adaptability, but fundamental questions remain: Which architectures generalize best? How do models scale with limited labels? What explains performance differences across model families? We benchmarked eight ECG FMs on 26 clinically relevant tasks using 12 public datasets comprising 1,650 regression and classification targets. Models were evaluated under fine-tuning and frozen settings, with scaling analyses across dataset sizes.

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Accurate prediction of the need for invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) in intensive care units (ICUs) patients is crucial for timely interventions and resource allocation. However, variability in patient populations, clinical practices, and electronic health record (EHR) systems across institutions introduces domain shifts that degrade the generalization performance of predictive models during deployment. Test-Time Training (TTT) has emerged as a promising approach to mitigate such shifts by adapting models dynamically during inference without requiring labeled target-domain data. In this work, we introduce Adaptive Test-Time Training (AdaTTT), an enhanced TTT framework tailored for EHR-based IMV prediction in ICU settings.

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Recent generative pre-trained vision–language (GPTv) models have achieved remarkable success in multi-modal understanding, inspiring their adaptation to medical imaging tasks such as disease diagnosis and visual question answering (VQA). However, current instruction-tuned GPTv models suffer from two key challenges: (1) medical attributes (e.g., disease names, severity grades) are encoded as plain text tokens, collapsing semantically distinct concepts into nearly identical textual sequences; and (2) inadequate textual supervision weakens visual representation learning, leading to severe inter-attribute confusion and misaligned vision–language embeddings. To address these limitations, we introduce attribute tokens (AttTok), a set of pre‑defined special tokens that uniquely encode clinical attributes (e.g., imaging modality, diagnosis, severity) within a structured token space. Complemented by attribute‑centric embedding books, AttTok serves as anchor points for aligning both visual and textual modalities into a shared, discriminative representation space.

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Deploying clinical ML is slow and brittle: models that work at one hospital often degrade under distribution shifts at the next. In this work, we study a simple question -- can large language models (LLMs) create portable patient embeddings i.e. representations of patients enable a downstream predictor built on one hospital to be used elsewhere with minimal-to-no retraining and fine-tuning. To do so, we map from irregular ICU time series onto concise natural language summaries using a frozen LLM, then embed each summary with a frozen text embedding model to obtain a fixed length vector capable of serving as input to a variety of downstream predictors.

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Recent advances in vision-language models (VLMs) have achieved remarkable performance on standard medical benchmarks, yet their true clinical reasoning ability remains unclear. Existing datasets predominantly emphasize classification accuracy, creating an evaluation illusion in which models appear proficient while still failing at high-stakes diagnostic reasoning. We introduce Neural-MedBench, a compact yet reasoning-intensive benchmark specifically designed to probe the limits of multimodal clinical reasoning in neurology. Neural-MedBench integrates multi-sequence MRI scans, structured electronic health records, and clinical notes, and encompasses three core task families: differential diagnosis, lesion recognition, and rationale generation.

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound imaging is limited by qualitative variability and its reliance on the expertise of medical professionals. Such challenges increase demand for computer-aided diagnostic systems that enhance diagnostic accuracy and efficiency. However, the unique texture and structural attributes of ultrasound images, and the scarcity of large-scale ultrasound datasets hinder the effective application of conventional machine learning methodologies. To address the challenges, we propose Anatomy-aware Representation Learning (ARL), a novel self-supervised representation learning framework specifically designed for medical ultrasound imaging.

ICLR 2026 Poster accepted paper at ICLR 2026. Pretrained medical foundation models (FMs) have shown strong generalization across diverse imaging tasks, such as disease classification in radiology and tumor grading in histopathology. While recent advances in parameter-efficient finetuning have enabled effective adaptation of FMs to downstream tasks, these approaches are typically designed for a single modality. In contrast, many clinical workflows rely on joint diagnosis from heterogeneous domains, such as radiology and pathology, where fully leveraging the representation capacity of multiple FMs remains an open challenge. To address this gap, we propose Concept Tuning and Fusing (CTF), a parameter-efficient framework that uses clinically grounded concepts as a shared semantic interface to enable cross-modal co-adaptation before fusion.
