This repo contains the evaluation code for the paper "Worse than Random? An Embarrassingly Simple Probing Evaluation of Large Multimodal Models in Medical VQA"

Introduction

We introduce the <b>Probing Evaluation for Medical Diagnosis (ProbMed)</b> dataset to rigorously assess LMM performance in medical imaging through <b>probing evaluation</b> and <b>procedural diagnosis</b>. Particularly, probing evaluation features pairing original questions with negation questions with hallucinated attributes, while procedural diagnosis requires reasoning across various diagnostic dimensions for each image, including modality recognition, organ identification, clinical findings, abnormalities, and positional grounding. ProbMed draws from two comprehensive biomedical datasets MedICaT and ChestX-ray14 to compile a diverse set of <b>6,303 images</b>. These images span three modalities (X-ray, MRI, and CT scan) and four organs (abdomen, brain, chest, and spine). After preprocessing, we generated a diverse set of high-quality questions for each image, covering various diagnostic dimensions. This process resulted in a total of <b>57,132 question-answer pairs</b>, averaging 9 pairs per image.
