Differential Attention-Augmented BiomedCLIP with Asymmetric Focal Optimization for Imbalanced Multi-Label Video Capsule Endoscopy Classification

arXiv CS.CV

ArXi:2603.17879v1 Announce Type: new This work presents a multi-label classification framework for video capsule endoscopy (VCE) that addresses the extreme class imbalance inherent in the Galar dataset through a combination of architectural and optimization-level strategies. Our approach modifies BiomedCLIP, a biomedical vision-language foundation model, by replacing its standard multi-head self-attention with a differential attention mechanism that computes the difference between two softmax attention maps to suppress attention noise.
