Admissible Diffusion for Multimodal Interventional Trajectories

Xing Han, Shravan Chaudhari, Jiarui Shao, Paul Pu Liang, Suchi Saria

Generating a plausible clinical trajectory does not establish what would happen under a different treatment. We present ADMIT, a framework combining irregular multimodal representations, treatment-conditioned latent diffusion and explicit constraints on generated states or actions. We formulate its interventional target through sequential g-computation and distinguish causal assumptions from constraint satisfaction. Its admissibility mechanism translates physiological prior knowledge into explicit constraints on generated states and proposed actions. Treatment-exposure dynamics condition latent transitions, while state projection or action gating applies the constraints during rollout so that they influence subsequent trajectory generation. In our preliminary experiments, multimodal inputs improved supervised hidden-state recovery and reduced treatment-contrast error. In a simulated dosing-schedule experiment with leak-free history encoding, ADMIT predicted most of the tumor-volume change caused by redistributing a fixed total dose. An exposure input improved these predictions around a temporary dose reduction whether or not the assumed clearance rate was correct, but reduced the…
