TIF-GRPO: Trajectory-Integral Feedback for CT Analysis

other · 2026-05-22

A new reinforcement learning method, Trajectory-Integral Feedback GRPO (TIF-GRPO), addresses evaluation hallucinations in medical vision-language models for 3D CT analysis. The approach uses the Clinical Abnormality Benchmarking Substrate (CABS) to decompose radiology reports into verifiable clinical units, correcting the mechanistic divergence where surface-similarity rewards bypass medical facts. The work is published on arXiv (2605.20277) and targets improving diagnostic accuracy in volumetric CT analysis.
