A Large-Scale Vision-Language Dataset Derived from Open Scientific Literature to Advance Biomedical Generalist AI

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

The paper introduces Biomedica, an open-source dataset sourced from PubMed Central that includes over 6 million scientific articles and 24 million image‑text pairs, along with 27 metadata fields and expert human annotations. To facilitate use, the authors provide scalable streaming and search APIs via a web server. They demonstrate the dataset’s value by training embedding models, chat‑style models, and retrieval‑augmented chat agents, all of which outperform previous open systems in their categories.

DEEPMED Search: An Open-Source Agentic Platform for Medical Deep Research with Introspective Verification

Navigating the deluge of heterogeneous medical data, from academic literature (PubMed) to clinical guidelines (Web) and private knowledge bases, remains a critical bottleneck for evidence-based medicine. While commercial black-box tools lack transparency, standard open-source RAG implementations frequently suffer from reasoning drift when handling complex, long-tail queries.

MedSAM3: Delving into Segment Anything with Medical Concepts

MedSAM-3 is a text‑promptable medical segmentation model that builds on the Segment Anything Model (SAM) by fine‑tuning it with medical images and semantic concept labels. It enables precise anatomical segmentation through open‑vocabulary text descriptions, moving beyond purely geometric prompts. The accompanying MedSAM-3 Agent incorporates multimodal large language models to perform complex reasoning and iterative refinement, and experiments across X‑ray, MRI, ultrasound, CT, and video modalities show it outperforms existing specialist and foundation models.
