Anatomy-Slot: Unsupervised Anatomical Factorization for Homologous Bilateral Reasoning in Retinal Diagnosis

arXiv CS.AI

ArXi:2605.12929v1 Announce Type: cross Retinal diagnosis is inherently bilateral: clinicians compare homologous structures across eyes (e.g., optic disc asymmetry), yet most deep models operate on monocular representations. We investigate whether explicit structural correspondence improves diagnosis, and propose Anatomy-Slot to operationalize this hypothesis. Anatomy-Slot
