MedGMAE：面向医学体数据表征学习的 Gaussian 掩码自编码器
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.
