• Abstract: Artificial intelligence (AI) models trained on audio data may have the potential to rapidly perform clinical tasks, enhancing medical decision-making and potentially improving outcomes through early detection. Existing technologies depend on limited datasets collected with expensive recording equipment in high-income countries, which challenges deployment in resource-constrained, high-volume settings where audio data may have a profound impact on health equity. This report introduces a novel data type and a corresponding collection system that captures health data through guided questions using only a mobile/web application. The app facilitates the collection of an audio electronic health record (Voice EHR) which may contain complex biomarkers of health from conventional voice/respiratory features, speech patterns, and spoken language with semantic meaning and longitudinal context, potentially compensating for the typical limitations of unimodal clinical datasets. This report presents the application used for data collection, initial experiments on data quality, and case studies which demonstrate the potential of voice EHR to advance the scalability/diversity of audio AI.

  We introduce a new task of automatically generating lay definitions, aiming to simplify medical terms into patient-friendly lay language. We first created the dataset, an extensive collection of over 50,000 unique (medical term, lay definition) pairs and 300,000 mentions. We have also engineered a data-centric Human-AI pipeline that synergizes data filtering, augmentation, and selection to improve data quality.

• Cross-Modal Information Maximization for Medical Imaging: CMIM [62.28852442561818]
  In hospitals, data are siloed to specific information systems that make the same information available under different modalities. This offers unique opportunities to obtain and use at train-time those multiple views of the same information that might not always be available at test-time. We propose an innovative framework that makes the most of available data by learning good representations of a multi-modal input that are resilient to modality dropping at test-time.
