Prior-Anchored Debiasing for Long-Tailed Multi-Organ Pathology Report Generation

Feng Yang, Jie Liu, Yubo Pang et al.

Automated pathology report generation from Whole Slide Images (WSIs) has attracted increasing attention in digital pathology. However, existing methods are predominantly developed under single-organ settings, overlooking the multi-organ scenarios encountered in clinical practice, where organ types typically follow a long-tailed distribution. To address this gap, we identify two critical biases: (1) visual representation bias, where the encoder favors head-class patterns over tail-class discriminative features, and (2) textual decoding bias, where the decoder overfits to head-class narrative patterns, yielding diagnostically unreliable outputs for tail-class organs. To mitigate these two biases, we propose a novel Prior-anchored multi-Organ pathology report Generation framework (PriOrGen). Specifically, a Visual-Prototype Anchored Bottleneck module leverages the information bottleneck principle with learnable anchor representations to selectively retain diagnostically relevant visual information while filtering out head-biased redundancy. Secondly, a Meta-Report Anchored Bank module constructs an organ-specific meta-report anchored bank and retrieves organ-faithful textual priors to steer the decoder away from head-class narrative patterns. Extensive experiments on a multi- organ pathology dataset demonstrate that our method effectively mitigates long-tail biases and achieves superior report generation performance across both head and tail organ categories compared to state-of-the-art methods.

Holographic Quantum Transformer: A Generalist Neuro-Symbolic Architecture for Solving Frustrated Systems via Generative Attention

Xingran Guo, Tiaojie Xiao, Jie Liu et al.

Simulating two-dimensional frustrated quantum matter is a grand challenge due to the sign problem and exponential Hilbert space complexity. In this work, we introduce the Holographic Quantum Transformer (HQT), a physics-inspired generative architecture that leverages global self-attention to resolve non-local entanglement patterns. We validate HQT on the square lattice $J_1-J_2$ Heisenberg model. On the heavily frustrated $8 \times 8$ lattice at the quantum critical point ($J_2=0.5$), HQT reaches a ground-state energy per site ($E/N$) of $\mathbf{-0.5001(1)}$, consistent with the expected finite-size scaling trend. Beyond numerical accuracy, HQT exhibits intrinsic physical awareness, autonomously recovering the underlying $J_2$ interaction geometry through interpretable attention maps. Our central contribution is ``Holographic Transfer", a zero-shot size-extrapolation protocol with rapid alignment: a model trained on $8 \times 8$ systems is directly projected onto larger $10 \times 10$ lattices via continuous positional-embedding interpolation and head re-initialization, achieving high-fidelity initialization and rapid convergence. This zero-shot protocol yields an energy of $E/N = \mathbf{-0.49782(3)}$, statistically consistent with the variational state of the art while requiring no from-scratch training on the target lattice. Our results establish generative attention as a scalable paradigm for transferable quantum simulation.
