UR$^{2}$-MLLM: Uncertainty-aware Revisit Reasoning in Multimodal Large Language Models for Radiology Report Generation

The paper introduces UR$^{2}$-MLLM, an uncertainty‑aware multimodal large language model that dynamically revisits uncertain image regions during radiology report generation. It incorporates an uncertainty perception module trained on a specialized dataset, builds a multimodal reasoning trajectory with a detect‑and‑copy mechanism to guide revisits, and refines this behavior using a visual grounding reward via reinforcement learning. Experiments on MIMIC‑CXR and IU‑Xray demonstrate state‑of‑the‑art performance, underscoring the importance of visual revisit reasoning for reliable, clinically aligned reports.

Breaking Failure Cascades: Step-Aware Reinforcement Learning for Medical Multimodal Reasoning

arXiv:2606. 31825v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent multimodal large language models have shown great promise in clinical image reasoning, but existing post-training pipelines remain predominantly outcome-centric, relying on final answer correctness or sequence-level preferences.

Evo-PI: Aligning Medical Reasoning via Evolving Principle-Guided Supervision

arXiv:2606. 31800v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Despite recent progress, the reasoning capabilities of large multimodal language models (MLLMs) remain fundamentally constrained by static supervision, where fixed prompts, rules, or reward models provide non-adaptive guidance throughout training.

PaLMR: Towards Faithful Visual Reasoning via Multimodal Process Alignment

arXiv:2603. 06652v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reinforcement learning has recently improved the reasoning ability of Large Language Models and Multimodal LLMs, yet prevailing reward designs emphasise final-answer correctness and consequently tolerate process hallucinations--cases where models reach the right answer while misperceiving visual evidence.

Mitigating Visual Hallucinations in Multimodal Systems through Retrieval-Augmented Reliability-Aware Inference

Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have demonstrated strong capabilities in vision-language understanding and natural-language response generation. However, these systems can still produce overconfident predictions and hallucination-like outputs, particularly when the visual evidence is weak, ambiguous, or semantically inconsistent.
