arXiv:2606. 28329v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The growing adoption of AI in healthcare, particularly in preventive care, highlights the critical need for accessibility and precision in Medical Question Answering (MedQA).
arXiv:2512. 01045v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Data-intensive artificial intelligence applications increasingly rely on large-scale, high-quality, explainable, and reproducible datasets, yet the construction of such datasets often remains labor-intensive, weakly traceable, and difficult to configure.
arXiv:2608. 08307v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Medical Visual Question Answering (VQA) requires aligning subtle visual evidence, including lesion texture, boundary sharpness, and diffuse density changes, with clinical language.
arXiv:2607. 22643v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal retrieval-augmented generation (mRAG) aims to answer image-text queries with external knowledge, but most existing systems still retrieve directly from raw multimodal input over a flat evidence space.

The paper introduces VT-Transformer, a model that predicts answerability scores for Visual Question Answering by treating the task as a regression problem rather than a binary classification. It leverages visual and textual features within a Transformer architecture and demonstrates improved performance and robustness on the VizWiz 2020 dataset compared to existing baselines.
arXiv:2608.29088v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal question answering remains sensitive to noisy, incomplete, and weakly grounded evidence. Long unstructured contexts can introduce redundancy...
MedGEN-Bench is a new benchmark for open‑ended multimodal medical generation that addresses limitations in current medical visual benchmarks, such as query‑image misalignment, closed‑ended answer spaces, and text‑centric outputs. The dataset contains 6,422 image‑text pairs across six imaging modalities, 15 clinical tasks, and 27 subtasks, including VQA, image editing, and contextual multimodal generation pairs. Evaluation combines reference‑based fidelity metrics with a structured, checklist‑guided assessment by a medical VLM judge, and preliminary results show that image‑output tasks remain unsaturated while contextual augmentation improves image‑instruction similarity.
arXiv:2607. 04625v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) streamlines long-document understanding by leveraging retrieval mechanisms to restrict input images to a highly curated subset.
arXiv:2608. 14584v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In Multimodal Question Answering (MQA), models are required to jointly encode and integrate heterogeneous information from multiple modalities, including text, images, and speech, to perform complex semantic reasoning and decision making.
