An ablation removes one component or modality at a time and re-measures performance, which is the only way to know what each part contributes; multi-task heads let one shared backbone serve several outputs.
In machine learning, ablation is the removal of a component to determine its contribution to the system (Wikipedia). For a multimodal cancer model the ablation is per modality: drop mutations, copy number, protein or the pretrained encoder and see whether survival or drug-response accuracy moves. Multi-task learning solves several tasks at once through a shared representation with task-specific heads (Wikipedia), which is efficient but can let one easy task (cancer type) dominate the backbone.
