A Multimodal Deep Learning Framework for Early Diagnosis of Liver Cancer via Optimized BiLSTM-AM-VMD Architecture

Abstract

This paper proposes a novel multimodal deep learning framework integrating bidirectional LSTM, multi-head attention mechanism, and variational mode decomposition (BiLSTM-AM-VMD) for early liver cancer diagnosis. Using heterogeneous data that include clinical characteristics, biochemical markers, and imaging-derived variables, our approach improves both prediction accuracy and interpretability. Experimental results on real-world datasets demonstrate superior performance over traditional machine learning and baseline deep learning models.
