OmniMed-Jev: Calibrating LVLM Confidence for Trustworthy Medical Multimodal Decisions via System One

OmniMed-Jev is a new medical multimodal model that represents each decision as a Choice, Noul, or Score over a runtime-supplied candidate set, returning a full probability distribution for each decision. By unifying diverse imaging modalities and prediction tasks into a single candidate-conditioned probability model, it makes heterogeneous outputs comparable probabilities rather than task-specific strings. In controlled comparisons against a generative baseline, OmniMed-Jev’s reported probabilities align more closely with observed correctness, reducing calibration error by up to an order of magnitude and reliability error by up to two, while maintaining comparable point-prediction performance.

MedQA-MM: Shortcuts Behind Medical Visual Reasoning

The paper introduces MedQA-MM, a benchmark that exposes shortcut reasoning in medical multimodal multiple-choice questions. By auditing prompts, images, and modalities, the authors show that models often rely on textual cues rather than visual evidence, with full-input accuracy at 62.63% but only 5.21% when restricted to text. The study highlights the need for route-level evidence to validate true medical image reasoning.
