    FACT: Fuzzy Alignment with Comorbidity Topology for Reliable Multi-Label Medical Image Diagnosis
    FACT: Fuzzy Alignment with Comorbidity Topology for Reliable Multi-Label Medical Image Diagnosis

    Yingyu Chen, Yongqiang Huang, Yang Qin, Ziyuan Yang, Lang Yuan, Maosong Ran, Yi Zhang

    International Conference on Machine Learning (ICML)

    This paper proposes FACT, a framework that reinterprets multi-label medical image diagnosis as a fuzzy alignment problem, leveraging vector quantization to construct atomic visual evidence and a graph convolutional network to embed comorbidity topology, with a metric-based fuzzy membership function derived from RKHS theory.
