3D CT analysis spans a continuum from low-level perception to high-level clinical understanding. Existing 3D-oriented analysis methods adopt either isolated task-specific modeling or task-agnostic end-to-end paradigms to produce one-hop outputs, impeding the systematic accumulation of perceptual evi…
Finetuning Large Vision-Language Models with reinforcement learning has emerged as a promising approach to enhance their capability in object-level grounding. However, existing methods, mainly based on GRPO, assign rewards at the response level. Such sparse reward leads to minimal learning signals w
Modern clinical diagnosis relies on the comprehensive analysis of multi-modal patient data, drawing on medical expertise to ensure systematic and rigorous reasoning. Recent advances in Vision–Language Models (VLMs) and agent-based methods are reshaping medical diagnosis by effectively integrating mu…
We introduce Agentic Reasoning, a framework that enhances large language model (LLM) reasoning by integrating external tool-using agents. Agentic Reasoning dynamically leverages web search, code execution, and structured memory to address complex problems requiring deep research. A key innovation in…
The severe shortage of medical doctors limits access to timely and reliable healthcare, leaving millions underserved. Large language models (LLMs) offer a potential solution but struggle in real-world clinical interactions. Many LLMs are not grounded in authoritative medical guidelines and fail to t
We introduce MedGraphRAG, a novel graph-based Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) framework designed to enhance LLMs in generating evidence-based medical responses, improving safety and reliability with private medical data. We introduce Triple Graph Construction and U-Retrieval to enhance GraphRAG…
Medical image segmentation data inherently contain uncertainty. This can stem from both imperfect image quality and variability in labeling preferences on ambiguous pixels, which depend on annotator expertise and the clinical context of the annotations. For instance, a boundary pixel might be labele…
The Diffusion Probabilistic Model (DPM) has recently gained popularity in the field of computer vision, thanks to its image generation applications, such as Imagen, Latent Diffusion Models, and Stable Diffusion, which have demonstrated impressive capabilities and sparked much discussion within the c…
Large foundation models known for their strong zero-shot generalization have excelled in visual and language applications. However applying them to medical image segmentation a domain with diverse imaging types and target labels remains an open challenge. Current approaches such as adapting interact…
"Open checkout-free grocery is the grocery store where the customers never have to wait in line to check out. Developing a system like this is not trivial since it faces challenges of recognizing the dynamic and massive flow of people. In particular, a clustering method that can efficiently assign e…
In medical image analysis, it is typical to collect multiple annotations, each from a different clinical expert or rater, in the expectation that possible diagnostic errors could be mitigated. Meanwhile, from the computer vision practitioner viewpoint, it has been a common practice to adopt the grou…
