A new study published on arXiv investigates the convergence of representations in medical foundation models. Researchers found that self-supervised learning objectives drive this convergence more significantly than clinical supervision. The study analyzed various open-weight encoders across different sizes and modalities, revealing that while convergence is modest and within-modality, it allows for transferable performance in downstream tasks like classification.
