The paper argues that internal self-consistency checks cannot guarantee the accuracy of photogrammetric reconstructions, a limitation that is structural rather than a tuning issue. It introduces a track‑leakage‑free hold‑out protocol that withholds a deterministic subset of images and tests each against only 3D points supported by at least two retained images, ensuring no view is evaluated against the structure it helped create. Experiments on diverse datasets show that while the protocol is well‑posed, it saturates at a confidence score of 1.00 and fails to detect coherent distortion, missing large errors that can reach over 100 m.
whyItMatters":"The study highlights that hold‑out self‑validation scores, increasingly used as quality evidence for metric deliverables, may be misleading and cannot replace external survey validation."

A radiology report can already answer a clinical question, so it is hard to tell whether a vision-language model also uses the image. ModaLens, a paired image-swap audit, measures how report availabil...
The study investigates how confidence intervals (CIs) behave in medical imaging AI by analyzing 24 segmentation and classification tasks with 19 models per task, various metrics, aggregation strategies, and CI methods. It finds that required sample sizes for reliable CIs vary widely, CI behavior depends on performance metrics, aggregation strategy, and problem type, and that different CI methods differ in reliability and precision. The authors provide a decision tree to guide researchers in selecting appropriate CI methods, aiming to support future consensus guidelines on reporting performance uncertainty.
