Medical vision-language models can automate the generation of radiology reports but struggle with accurate visual grounding and factual consistency. Existing models often misalign textual findings with visual evidence, leading to unreliable or weakly grounded predictions. We present "CURE", an error
Large language models (LLMs) have revolutionized natural language processing. Understanding their internal mechanisms is crucial for developing more interpretable and optimized architectures. Mechanistic interpretability has led to the development of various methods for assessing layer relevance, wi…
Vision Language Models (VLMs) are designed to extend Large Language Models (LLMs) with visual capabilities, yet in this work we observe a surprising phenomenon: VLMs can outperform their underlying LLMs on purely text-only tasks, particularly in long-context information retrieval. To investigate thi…
Compositionality in knowledge and language—the ability to represent complex concepts as a combination of simpler ones—is a hallmark of human cognition and communication. Despite recent advances, deep neural networks still struggle to acquire this property reliably. Neural models for emergent communi…
Advancing representation learning in specialized fields like medicine remains challenging due to the scarcity of expert annotations for text and images. To tackle this issue, we present a novel two-stage framework designed to extract high-quality factual statements from free-text radiology reports i…
In recent years, Reinforcement Learning (RL) has shown great promise in session-based recommendation. Sequential models that use RL have reached state-of-the-art performance for the Next-item Prediction (NIP) task. This result is intriguing, as the NIP task only evaluates how well the system can cor…
