Discrete Diffusion Language Models for Interactive Radiology Report Drafting

Max Van Puyvelde, Halil Ibrahim Gulluk, Wim Van Criekinge +1

Diffusion language models, which generate text by denoising a token canvas bidirectionally instead of emitting tokens left to right, have become competitive with autoregressive (AR…

JASPR: Joint Spatial Representation learning of histology and spatial genomics for improved virtual genomic screening and clinical prognostication

Marija Pizurica, Eric Zimmermann, Neil Tenenholtz +5

Recent studies have shown that spatial properties of tumors are critical for understanding disease biology and predicting patient outcomes. These spatial properties are increasingl…

Transition-Aware best-of-N sampling for Longitudinal Chest X-ray Reports

Halil Ibrahim Gulluk, Max Van Puyvelde, Wim Van Criekinge +1

In longitudinal clinical practice, every chest X-ray is read in the context of the patients prior exam, and much of what the radiologist communicates is the change from one visit t…

SDR: Set-Distance Rewards for Radiology Report Generation

Halil Ibrahim Gulluk, Max Van Puyvelde, Wim Van Criekinge +1

Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards has rapidly advanced reasoning in vision--language models. However, for chest X-ray report generation, the standard rewards (i.e. exa…

MAM-CLIP: Vision-Language Pretraining on Mammography Atlases for BI-RADS Classification

Halil Ibrahim Gulluk, Olivier Gevaert

Deep learning methods have demonstrated promising results in predicting BI-RADS scores from mammography images. However, the interpretation of these images can vary, leading to dis…
