PathAR: Structure-First Autoregressive Synthesis of Multimodal Pathology Images 文章

arXiv:2606.01543v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Data scarcity in multimodal pathology motivates unified generative models that synthesize modality-specific appearance while preserving anatomically coherent structure. Although modalities differ in appearance statistics, morphological structures such as cellular topology and tissue boundaries are largely preserved across acquisition protocols. However, existing methods often model these factors within a homogeneous token stream, implicitly coupling structure with appearance and weakening structural controllability under modality shifts. To address this, we propose pathology Autorgressive modeling (PathAR), a structure-first autoregressive synthesis framework that explicitly factorizes structure and appearance for modality-label-conditioned pathology generation.
