Mitigating Class-Tail Undercoverage in Medical Vision-Language Models under Clinical Shift
Article summary
Quick briefing — cleaned from the original RSS feed
arXiv:2607.28696v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Medical vision-language models (VLMs) can retain high observed marginal coverage after clinical shift while substantially under-covering an individual disease class. The affected class varies with acquisition protocol and backbone geometry, so source prevalence does not reliably reveal the failure. Existing localized and tail-aware conformal methods respectively adapt to test neighborhoods and source-frequency tails, leaving held-out class-wise…
