What's new

arXiv:2605.03103v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Semi-structured information extraction (IE) from OCR-derived clinical reports is crucial for efficiently reconstructing patients' longitudinal medical histories.

Key details

  • In practice, this scenario commonly involves three tasks: (i) field-header (key) discovery, (ii) key-conditioned question answering (QA), and (iii) end-to-end key-value pair extraction.
  • However, existing evaluations often under-model two factors: heterogeneous and incompletely known key representations, and OCR-induced noise.
  • This makes it difficult to assess model robustness in real-world settings.
  • We present MedStruct-S, a benchmark specifically designed to evaluate these tasks under unknown keys and OCR noise.

  • MedStruct-S contains 3,582 annotated real-world clinical report pages.
  • Using MedStruct-S, we benchmark two representative paradigms: encoder-only sequence labeling with post-processing and decoder-only structured generation, covering four encoder-only and five decoder-only models spanning 0.11B to 103B parameters.

Summary: AI agents running research on single-GPU nanochat training automatically One day, frontier AI research used to be done by meat computers in between eating, sleeping, having other.

  • What happened: AI agents running research on single-GPU nanochat training automatically One day, frontier AI research used to be done by meat computers in between eating, sleeping.
  • Why it matters: It modifies the code, trains for 5 minutes, checks if the result improved, keeps or discards, and repeats.
  • What to do: Validate with one small internal benchmark and compare against your current baseline this week.

Context

Instead, you are programming the program.md Markdown files that provide context to the AI agents and set up your autonomous research org.

Key details

  • Research is now entirely the domain of autonomous swarms of AI agents running across compute cluster megastructures in the skies.
  • The agents claim that we are now in the 10,205th generation of the code base, in any case no one could tell if that's right or wrong as the "code" is now a self-modifying binary that has grown beyond human comprehension.
  • This repo is the story of how it all began.
  • The idea: give an AI agent a small but real LLM training setup and let it experiment autonomously overnight.

Results & evidence

  • The agents claim that we are now in the 10,205th generation of the code base, in any case no one could tell if that's right or wrong as the "code" is now a self-modifying binary that has grown beyond human comprehension.

Semantic Context-aware mOdality fUsion Transformer (SCOUT): A Context-Aware Multimodal Transformer for Concept-Grounded Pathology Report Generation

Deep

Context

arXiv:2605.01144v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Whole-slide images (WSIs) present a fundamental challenge for computational pathology due to their extreme resolution, multi-scale heterogeneity, and the requirement for clinically reliable interpretation.

What's new

The method integrates local histological patterns, whole-slide context, and expert-curated semantic descriptors within a unified learning paradigm, allowing visual features to be dynamically refined throughout the encoding process.

Key details

  • Although recent pathology foundation models have enabled fluent report generation, they often lack clinical grounding, failing to accurately represent key diagnostic concepts and relationships observed by pathologists.
  • This limitation arises from the difficulty of integrating heterogeneous visual evidence spanning fine-grained cellular patterns, slide-level tissue architecture, and high-level diagnostic concepts, while maintaining interpretability and clinical coherence.
  • Here we present SCOUT: Semantic Context-aware mOdality fUsion Transformer, a context-aware concept-grounded multimodal framework for pathology report generation that enables progressive conditioning of image representations by global slide information and e...

  • Using CONCH1.5 features, we evaluate SCOUT against WSI-Caption, HistGen, and BiGen on TCGA-BRCA, MICCAI REG, and HistAI.
  • SCOUT achieves the best BLEU-1 to BLEU-4 and METEOR scores on all datasets, plus the best ROUGE-L on TCGA-BRCA and MICCAI REG.

Limitations / unknowns

  • This limitation arises from the difficulty of integrating heterogeneous visual evidence spanning fine-grained cellular patterns, slide-level tissue architecture, and high-level diagnostic concepts, while maintaining interpretability and clinical coherence.
