New PMC-InterCPT dataset enhances biomedical multimodal models

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed PMC-InterCPT, a new dataset designed to improve multimodal models for biomedical applications. This dataset addresses limitations in existing image-text pairs by incorporating relevant surrounding article text alongside figure captions. The pipeline cleans and reconstructs interleaved image-text samples, using LLM-supervised classifiers to filter for quality and medical relevance, and also addresses modality imbalance through resampling.

IMPACT Improves multimodal model performance in the biomedical domain by providing a more contextually rich dataset.

    PMC-InterCPT: Rethinking Biomedical Interleaved Data for Multimodal Continued Pretraining

    arXiv:2606.01049v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large-scale biomedical image-text datasets extracted from scientific literature provide valuable resources for medical multimodal model training. These datasets are commonly organized as image-caption pairs; however, figure captions…
