Title: Analyzing and Improving Fine-grained Preference Optimization in Medical LVLMs

Abstract:
arXiv:2606.12590v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) have achieved strong performance across medical imaging tasks, yet they remain prone to factual inconsistencies, poor visual grounding, and misalignment with clinically meaningful feedback. Existing post-training alignment approaches, including Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) and its variants, face three critical limitations in the medical domain: (1) sequence-level reward signals treat clinically critica
