No Tokens Wasted: Leveraging Long Context in Biomedical Vision-Language Models

Min Woo Sun, Alejandro Lozano, Javier Gamazo Tejero +8

Embedding vision-language models (VLMs) are typically pretrained with short text windows (<77 tokens), which forces the truncation of long-format captions. Yet, the distribution of…

BIOMEDICA: An Open Biomedical Image-Caption Archive, Dataset, and Vision-Language Models Derived from Scientific Literature

Alejandro Lozano, Min Woo Sun, James Burgess +13

The development of vision-language models (VLMs) is driven by large-scale and diverse multimodal datasets. However, progress toward generalist biomedical VLMs is limited by the lac…
