TRACE: Training-time Report-guided and Clinically Ordered Concept Editing
Quick summary
arXiv:2608.20809v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Breast ultrasound diagnosis relies on clinically meaningful semantic concepts, yet most deep learning methods adopt end-to-end image-to-label paradigms that lack interpretability and robustness. While concept-based approaches offer a promising alternative, they often assume complete annotations or require multimodal inputs at inference, which significantly limits their real-world applicability. To tackle these issues, we propose Training-time Report-guided and Clinically Ordered Concept Editing (TRACE), a training-time report-guided framework t

Why it matters
This model development creates a new option for users and a new testing obligation for developers. A fixed evaluation set comparing quality, cost and failure behavior is more useful than launch claims.
