arXiv:2604. 09757v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Medical vision--language models (VLMs) have shown strong potential for medical visual question answering (VQA), yet their reasoning remains largely text-centric: images are encoded once as static context, and subsequent inference is dominated by language.

The paper introduces the Generative Embedding Benchmark (GEB), which evaluates how much content from an embedding can be recovered by a decoder that only has access to the frozen embedding and a question, without the original image or intermediate features. GEB uses a curated visual‑question‑answering dataset with 1,800 development and 900 test items covering natural images, scene text, and visual documents. Experiments on seven public embedding models show that visual‑only scores range from 28.25 to 33.21, while joint image‑question encoding boosts scores up to 65.56, revealing that generative readout uncovers information bottlenecks not captured by traditional separability‑based benchmarks.

MedFG-VQA is a lightweight medical visual question answering framework that uses a memory bank to enhance low‑frequency DCT features and graph‑enhanced cross‑attention for visual‑textual alignment. It introduces Frequency‑Memory Fusion to retrieve and fuse low‑frequency information from a learnable memory bank, and Graph‑Aware Cross‑Attention to refine cross‑modal features via graph convolution. The authors also create SynMed‑VQA, a synthetic dataset of over 2 million QA pairs across nine imaging modalities, and show that MedFG‑VQA matches or outperforms larger models on several biomedical VQA benchmarks while keeping computational costs low.
