Medical Visual Question Answering (Med-VQA) aims to generate accurate answers for clinical questions grounded in medical images, which has attracted increasing research attention due to its potential to streamline diagnostics and reduce clinical burden. Recent advances in Large Vision-Language Model
Multimodal sarcasm detection (MSD) aims to identify sarcasm polarity from diverse modalities (i.e., image–text pairs), a task that has received increasing attention. While significant progress has been made, existing approaches still face two major issues: lack of explainability and weak generalizab
Multi-modal intent recognition (MIR) requires integrating non-verbal cues from real-world contexts to enhance human intention understanding, which has attracted substantial research attention in recent years. Despite promising advancements, a comprehensive survey summarizing recent advances and new
Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated significant potential in medical diagnostics and clinical decision-making. While benchmarks such as MedQA and PubMedQA have advanced the evaluation of qualitative reasoning, existing medical NLP benchmarks still face two limitations: the absence of a Ch
Hallucination has emerged as a critical challenge for large language models (LLMs) and large vision-language models (LVLMs), particularly in high-stakes medical applications. Despite its significance, dedicated research on medical hallucination remains unexplored. In this survey, we first provide a…
The visual question localized-answering (VQLA) system has garnered increasing attention due to its potential as a knowledgeable assistant in surgical education. Apart from providing text-based answers, VQLA can also pinpoint the specific region of interest for better surgical scene understanding. Al…
Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in language understanding and generation, leading to their widespread adoption across various fields. Among these, the medical field is particularly well-suited for LLM applications, as many medical tasks can be enhanced by LLMs.…
Multi-modal sarcasm detection (MSD), which aims to identify whether a given sample with multi-modal information (i.e., text and image) is sarcastic, has garnered widespread attention. Recent approaches focus on designing sophisticated architectures or mechanisms to extract sarcastic cues from entire…
The cross-domain text-to-SQL task aims to build a system that can parse user questions into SQL on complete unseen databases, and the single-domain text-to-SQL task evaluates the performance on identical databases. Both of these setups confront unavoidable difficulties in real-world applications. To…
Event detection is challenging in real-world application since new events continually occur and old events still exist which may result in repeated labeling for old events. Therefore, incremental event detection is essential where a model continuously learns new events and meanwhile prevents perform…
Joint extraction of entities and relations from unstructured texts is a crucial task in information extraction. Recent methods achieve considerable performance but still suffer from some inherent limitations, such as redundancy of relation prediction, poor generalization of span-based extraction and…
