Synergistic Vision-Language Reinforcement Enables Scalable On-Demand Analysis across Diverse Clinical Tasks

arXiv:2505.03380v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Accurate delineation of tumors and surrounding organs-at-risk is essential for radiotherapy, surgery and treatment response assessment, yet remains time-consuming and expertise-intensive. Existing artificial intelligence systems often require manual spatial prompts or task-specific retraining, while generic class labels provide limited semantic grounding for heterogeneous disease targets. Here we present SyRe, a promptable segmentation foundation model based on Synergistic vision-language Reinforcement. SyRe strengthens bidirectional interaction between visual and linguistic representations to improve semantically grounded spatial understanding. To support large-scale training, we introduce the Color Region Description strategy and construct SyReData, comprising 20 million image-mask-description triplets across 9 modalities and 229 segmentation tasks. Training with diversified prompt forms further enables open-ended prompting, invalid-prompt rejection and flexible switching between single- and multi-target analysis. SyRe achieves accurate text-prompted segmentation across diverse clinical scenarios, with particularly strong performance on disease-related targets. Across 28 unseen external datasets, including 20 cancer types and multinational in-house cohorts, SyRe generalizes robustly under real-world distribution shifts. SyRe-generated masks also preserve clinically relevant quantitative information in pathology and yield radiomics features that stratify survival and improve prognostic modeling across five retrospective CT and MRI tumor cohorts. Finally, clinician-in-the-loop refinement enables efficient case-level correction when greater precision is required. These results establish SyRe as a generalizable foundation for scalable quantitative oncology and clinician-guided segmentation refinement.

Hallucination-aware intermediate representation edit in large vision-language models

arXiv:2603.29405v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Vision-Language Models have demonstrated exceptional performance in multimodal reasoning and complex scene understanding. However, these models still face significant hallucination issues, where outputs contradict visual facts. Recent research on hallucination mitigation has focused on retraining methods and Contrastive Decoding (CD) methods. While both methods perform well, retraining methods require substantial training resources, and CD methods introduce dual inference overhead. These factors hinder their practical applicability. To address the above issue, we propose a framework for dynamically detecting hallucination representations and performing hallucination-eliminating edits on these representations. With minimal additional computational cost, we achieve state-of-the-art performance on existing benchmarks. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach, highlighting its efficient and robust hallucination elimination capability and its powerful controllability over hallucinations.

Adaptive Social Learning via Mode Policy Optimization for Language Agents

arXiv:2505.02156v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Effective social intelligence simulation requires language agents to dynamically adjust reasoning depth, a capability notably absent in current studies. Existing methods either lack explicit reasoning or employ lengthy Chain-of-Thought reasoning uniformly across all scenarios, resulting in excessive token usage and inflexible social behaviors in tasks such as negotiation or collaboration. To address this, we propose an $\textbf{A}$daptive $\textbf{S}$ocial $\textbf{L}$earning ($\textbf{ASL}$) framework in this paper, aiming to improve the adaptive reasoning ability of language agents in dynamic social interactions. To this end, we first identify the hierarchical reasoning modes under such context, ranging from intuitive response to deep deliberation based on the cognitive control theory. We then develop the $\textbf{A}$daptive $\textbf{M}$ode $\textbf{P}$olicy $\textbf{O}$ptimization ($\textbf{AMPO}$) algorithm to learn the context-aware mode adaptation and reasoning. Our framework advances existing research in three key aspects: (1) Multi-granular reasoning mode design, (2) Context-aware mode switching in rich social interaction, and (3) Token-efficient reasoning with depth adaptation. Extensive experiments on the benchmark social intelligence environment verify that ASL achieves 15.6% higher task performance than GPT-4o. Notably, our AMPO outperforms GRPO by 7.0% with 32.8% shorter thinking chains, demonstrating the advantages of our AMPO and the learned adaptive reasoning ability over GRPO's solution.
