From Portraits to Pathology: Probing Diagnostic Overreach in Vision-Language Models

Karan Dua, Amit Agarwal, Hitesh Laxmichand Patel +8

Many medical conditions require clinical assessment of symptoms, history, and functioning rather than judgments from appearance. We study whether vision-language models (VLMs) abst…

Do Image-Text Metrics Respect Semantic Invariances?

Amit Agarwal, Hitesh Laxmichand Patel, Meizhu Liu +9

Reference-free image-to-text evaluators are now standard for scoring image-caption alignment, yet it is unclear whether they respect semantic invariances. We present an invariance…
