Achieving Fine-grained Cross-modal Understanding through Brain-inspired Hierarchical Representation Learning

Understanding neural responses to visual stimuli remains challenging due to the inherent complexity of brain representations and the modality gap between neural data and visual inputs. Existing methods, mainly based on reducing neural decoding to generation tasks or simple correlations, fail to reflect the hierarchical and temporal processes of visual processing in the brain. To address these limitations, we present NeuroAlign, a novel framework for fine-grained fMRI-video alignment inspired by the hierarchical organization of the human visual system. Our framework implements a two-stage mechanism that mirrors biological visual pathways: global semantic understanding through Neural-Temporal Contrastive Learning (NTCL) and fine-grained pattern matching through enhanced vector quantization. NTCL explicitly models temporal dynamics through bidirectional prediction between modalities, while our DynaSyncMM-EMA approach enables dynamic multi-modal fusion with adaptive weighting. Experiments demonstrate that NeuroAlign significantly outperforms existing methods in cross-modal retrieval tasks, establishing a new paradigm for understanding visual cognitive mechanisms.

Peak-Detector: Explainable Peak Detection via Instruction-Tuned Large Language Models in Physiological Sign

Accurate peak detection across diverse cardiac physiological signals, including the Electrocardiogram (ECG), Photoplethysmogram (PPG), Ballistocardiogram (BCG), and Bodyseismography (BSG), is fundamental for cardiovascular monitoring but is often hindered by artifacts and signal variability. Conventional algorithms are typically engineered with expert knowledge for a single signal modality, limiting their generalizability. Conversely, deep learning-based methods often lack interpretability, limiting transparency for expert verification and hindering expert-computer interaction. To address these limitations, we introduce Peak-Detector, a novel framework that leverages instruction-tuned Large Language Models (LLMs) for robust, cross-modal, and explainable peak detection. A core innovation of our framework is a "peak-representation" technique that transforms time-series data into a condensed format, preserving critical event information while significantly reducing signal length. This representation provides a crucial inductive bias, guiding the LLM to reason over physiologically meaningful events rather than raw, noisy data. The model is optimized through a two-stage process: supervised fine-tuning (SFT) followed by reinforcement learning (RL) with a multi-objective reward function. The model's self-explanation capabilities are cultivated by fine-tuning on a custom-built Peak-Explanation dataset. Across four modalities-ECG, PPG, BCG, and BSG-spanning seven datasets (six public benchmarks plus one real-world cohort), Peak-Detector demonstrates strong cross-modal performance, achieving best or tied-best detection under clinically relevant temporal tolerance. Beyond accuracy, the generated rationales surface failure modes and support verification and error analysis.
