Concept Bottleneck Models (CBMs) achieve interpretability by interposing a human-understandable concept layer between perception and label prediction. The foundation of CBMs lies in the many-to-many mapping that translates high-dimensional visual features to a set of discrete concepts. However, we…
Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) has emerged as a critical paradigm for grounding Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) in external knowledge. Recent GraphRAG methods introduce structured entity-relation graphs to improve retrieval and reasoning. However, they remain limited by treating knowl
Despite significant advancements in general AI, its effectiveness in the medical domain is limited by the lack of specialized medical knowledge. To address this, we formulate GMAI-VL-5.5M, a multimodal medical dataset created by converting hundreds of specialized medical datasets with various annot
Recent self-supervised image segmentation models have achieved promising performance on semantic segmentation and class-agnostic instance segmentation. However, their pretraining schedule is multi-stage, requiring a time-consuming pseudo-masks generation process between each training epoch. This
Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) can yield large reasoning gains from very few training instances, yet its strong sensitivity to which instances are used makes data selection a central bottleneck. Most existing selection pipelines rely on training-time optimization signals and/o…
Medical diagnosis demands models that can process multimodal medical inputs, such as medical images and patient histories, and generate diverse outputs including textual reports and visual content, such as annotations or segmentation masks. Despite this need, existing medical AI models disrupt this …
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a powerful and versatile imaging technique, offering a wide spectrum of information about the anatomy by employing different acquisition modalities. However, in the clinical workflow, it is impractical to collect all relevant modalities due to the scan time and co
Interactive Medical Image Segmentation (IMIS) has long been constrained by the limited availability of large-scale, diverse, and densely annotated datasets, which hinders model generalization and consistent evaluation across different models. In this paper, we introduce the IMed-361M benchmark datas…
Vision-language pretraining (VLP) enables open-world generalization beyond predefined labels, a critical capability in surgery due to the diversity of procedures, instruments, and patient anatomies. However, applying VLP to ophthalmic surgery presents unique challenges, including limited vision-lang…
Despite the progress made by multimodal large language models (MLLMs) in computational pathology, they remain limited by a predominant focus on patch-level analysis, missing essential contextual information at the whole-slide level. The lack of large-scale instruction datasets and the gigapixel scal…
Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) are capable of handling diverse data types such as imaging, text, and physiological signals, and can be applied in various fields. In the medical field, LVLMs have a high potential to offer substantial assistance for diagnosis and treatment. Before that, it is cr…
How can we test AI performance? This question seems trivial, but it isn't. Standard benchmarks often have problems such as in-distribution and small-size test sets, oversimplified metrics, unfair comparisons, and short-term outcome pressure. As a consequence, good performance on standard benchmarks…
Recent studies often exploit Graph Convolutional Network (GCN) to model label dependencies to improve recognition accuracy for multi-label image recognition. However, constructing a graph by counting the label co-occurrence possibilities of the training data may degrade model generalizability, espec…
