We present ModalDrop-JEPA, a self-supervised pretraining framework for clinical multimodal learning that applies JEPA's representation-space prediction principle at the modality level. Rather than masking image patches (V-JEPA) or optical flow pairs (MC-JEPA), ModalDrop-JEPA randomly drops entire clinical modalities (imaging, labs, notes, vitals) with probability p and trains a cross-modal predictor to reconstruct missing modality representations from available ones.

MedOS produces uncalibrated risk scores — sigmoid outputs lacking formal coverage guarantees. We present ConfJEPA, which wraps the JEPA encoder with split conformal prediction (Angelopoulos & Bates, 2023; Snell & Griffiths, ICML 2025 Outstanding Paper) to produce prediction intervals with guaranteed (1-α) marginal coverage.

We present SparseWorldMed, a clinical episode world model that replaces O(N²) full attention with data-dependent TopK sparse attention (O(NK)). Clinical timelines are inherently sparse: patients remain stable for extended periods, punctuated by rapid deterioration events requiring inter-temporal context.

V-JEPA (Bardes et al. 2024) is integrated as the visual backbone of MedOS, a dual-process surgical world model.

We present MedOS-JEPA, an integration of the Motion-Content Joint Embedding Predictive Architecture (MC-JEPA) as the visual backbone of MedOS — a dual-process world model for clinical AI. MC-JEPA jointly learns optical flow and semantic content from surgical video via a shared ViT encoder, without pixel reconstruction.
