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

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

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.

OmniJudge or OmniBias? Diagnosing Multimodal Judges through Balanced, Decoupled Lenses

The paper introduces D3-Omni, a balanced and decoupled benchmark designed to diagnose fine‑grained multimodal understanding in OmniJudges that evaluate text‑to‑image, text‑to‑video, and text‑to‑speech generation. D3-Omni covers 53 orthogonal binary dimensions across 10,671 samples, using fixed positive seeds and controlled prompt rewriting to generate negatives, thereby ensuring each error can be attributed to a single capability. The benchmark’s dual‑balanced, decoupled, and dynamic design achieves near 1:1 per‑dimension parity and a uniform total‑score distribution, revealing that strong OmniJudges often miss modality‑related failures and treat distinct attributes as a single decision, masking systematic blind spots.

CARE: Confidence-Aware Reasoning for Reliable Medical VQA

arXiv:2608. 10964v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reinforcement Fine-Tuning (RFT) has enabled medical Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) to produce Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning for visual question answering, yet these models suffer from $\textit{confidence miscalibration}$---a systematic gap between expressed certainty and actual diagnostic accuracy that undermines clinical trust.
