The paper introduces an agentic AI Scientist workflow that automates the entire baseline development process for medical imaging by combining literature-guided reasoning, automated code generation, and hypothesis-driven experimentation. Evaluated on four public benchmarks covering segmentation, classification, and detection, the pipeline consistently improves validation performance, achieving competitive leaderboard results such as 6th place on both PUMA tracks and 31st on MILK10k. The approach also shows strong domain generalization on MIDOG25 across scanners, tumor types, and species, demonstrating that a skill-based, literature-guided agentic workflow can reduce engineering effort without task-specific redesign.

As vision-language models (VLMs) are increasingly applied to medical AI, existing benchmarks mainly focus on evaluating their diagnosis ability over given medical images and texts, implicitly assuming that standardized medical images, texts or question-answer pairs are already prepared. However, this assumption does not hold when we apply VLMs in real clinical practice, where medical data is often raw, heterogeneous, and fragmented across different sources.

The privacy requirements of medical data and its substantial variations across organs and modalities hinder the clinical implementation of medical AI. Federated learning (FL) is a feasible approach to overcome these challenges.

arXiv:2607. 27763v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We describe the DS@GT submissions to the ImageCLEFmedical Caption 2026 challenge, which continues a long-running benchmark on the ROCOv2 dataset with two tracks: Concept Detection (Task 1), assigning UMLS Concept Unique Identifiers (CUIs) to radiology images, and Caption Prediction (Task 2), generating natural-language captions.

Accurate dermatological diagnosis naturally necessitates equitable performance across diverse populations, yet a systematic lack of expertly annotated images, especially for underrepresented skin tones and rare diseases, impedes progress toward measurably fair methods. We introduce cgDDI (Controllable Generation of Diverse Dermatological Imagery), a hybrid framework that (1) synthesizes realistic healthy skin samples without disturbing other input properties, (2) maps single-sample rare lesions onto novel skin-tones and locations non-parametrically, and (3) allows for efficient parametric generation with as few as 10 training samples.
We describe the DS@GT submissions to the ImageCLEFmedical Caption 2026 challenge, which continues a long-running benchmark on the ROCOv2 dataset with two tracks: Concept Detection (Task 1), assigning UMLS Concept Unique Identifiers (CUIs) to radiology images, and Caption Prediction (Task 2), generating natural-language captions. For Task 1, our primary submission was a three-way late-fusion ensemble of ConvNeXt-V2, BiomedCLIP ViT-B/16, and DenseNet-169 with a regularized ''Honest Threshold Tuning'' procedure designed to avoid validation overfitting on rare concepts; this submission ranked first on the official submission with a primary $F_1$ of $0.
