MedQ-Deg - Basic Science Reasoning: leaderboard
Metric: Accuracy (%) on the Basic Science questions of MedQ-Deg (capability dimension of the clinical reasoning branch), pooled over the L1 (mild) and L2 (severe) degraded images, multiple-choice medical VQA items merged from OmniMedVQA, GMAI-MMBench and MedXpertQA, each image corrupted by modality-specific degradations whose severity three radiologists calibrated (24,894 QA pairs over 7 modalities and 18 degradation types), single-letter answer, temperature 1.0, mean of 3 runs; higher is better. Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Around January 2027. 40 models tracked.
