HERO: Hierarchical Evidential Reasoning Optimization for Radiology Report Generation via Reason-then-Summarize

arXiv:2601. 03321v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have substantially advanced Radiology Report Generation (RRG), yet aligning them through reinforcement learning (RL) remains challenging due to heterogeneous medical supervision.

Evaluating and Improving Evidence-Grounded Fact-Checking in LLMs via Multi-Round Evidence Ablation

The paper introduces Fact-Ablated Evaluation (FAE), a framework that iteratively removes cited evidence to test whether large language models (LLMs) adjust their fact‑checking predictions accordingly. Experiments reveal that many off‑the‑shelf LLMs rely more on internal knowledge than on the provided evidence. To address this, the authors propose REAL, a training method that uses counterfactual evidence supervision to encourage LLMs to base veracity judgments on evidence, achieving better evidence‑dependent performance across four datasets.
