ModalSurv predicts cancer recurrence over time by projecting available data types into shared representations. Cross-attention lets each modality draw on the others before a survival head estimates risk across time intervals. Prostate discovery testing favored cross-attention over simple concatenation, but external performance was weaker. Bladder test score was 0.5740, below a clinical-only challenge entry’s 0.6828; this comparison cannot isolate fusion.
