ExGra-Med: Extended Context Graph Alignment for Medical Vision-Language Models

NeurIPS 2025poster

State-of-the-art medical multi-modal LLMs (med-MLLMs), such as LLaVA-Med and BioMedGPT, primarily depend on scaling model size and data volume, with training driven largely by autoregressive objectives. However, we reveal that this approach can lead to weak vision-language alignment, making these mo…

Structure-Aware E(3)-Invariant Molecular Conformer Aggregation Networks

ICML 2024poster

A molecule’s 2D representation consists of its atoms, their attributes, and the molecule’s covalent bonds. A 3D (geometric) representation of a molecule is called a conformer and consists of its atom types and Cartesian coordinates. Every conformer has a potential energy, and the lower this energy,…

Explanation-based Finetuning Makes Models More Robust to Spurious Cues

ACL 2023long

Large Language Models (LLMs) are so powerful that they sometimes learn correlations between labels and features that are irrelevant to the task, leading to poor generalization on out-of-distribution data. We propose explanation-based finetuning as a general approach to mitigate LLMs’ reliance on spu…
