Token-Sparse Medical Multimodal Reasoning via Dual-Stream Reinforcement Learning

arXiv:2606. 31599v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) combining reinforcement learning (RL) ignite remarkable progress in multimodal reasoning, yet still struggle with medical images, which typically exhibit extremely sparse visual evidence to inform clinical decision-making.

Breaking Failure Cascades: Step-Aware Reinforcement Learning for Medical Multimodal Reasoning

arXiv:2606. 31825v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent multimodal large language models have shown great promise in clinical image reasoning, but existing post-training pipelines remain predominantly outcome-centric, relying on final answer correctness or sequence-level preferences.

CARE: Causally-Aligned Reasoning Exploration for Medical Large Language Models

CARE: Causally-Aligned Reasoning Exploration for Medical Large Language Models proposes a new framework to improve medical reasoning in LLMs. It introduces two key conditions—Causal Sufficiency and Proximal Learnability—to curate high-quality training trajectories, using agreement-based self-verification and dynamic entropy bounds. Experiments on medical multimodal and text-only benchmarks show that CARE outperforms competitors, reducing incorrect reasoning and enhancing training stability.
