2025 Radgen: A Cross-Modal Fusion System for Automated Radiology Report Generation
abstract
Automating radiology report generation can significantly reduce the workload of radiologists while improving the accuracy and consistency of clinical documentation. However, achieving optimal alignment between visual and textual representations in medical imaging remains a challenge. To address this, we demonstrate RadGen, a cross-modal fusion based system for automated medical report generation. RadGen uses MedCLIP as both a vision extractor and a retrieval mechanism to enhance the integration of imaging and textual data. By extracting features from retrieved reports and medical images through an attentionbased extraction module and integrating them with a fusion module, our system improves the coherence, accuracy, and clinical relevance of generated reports.

2025 Characterizing Multi-Hunk Patches: Divergence, Proximity, and LLM Repair Challenges
abstract
Multi-hunk bugs, where fixes span disjoint regions of code, are common in practice, yet remain underrepresented in automated repair. Existing techniques and benchmarks predominantly target single-hunk scenarios, overlooking the added complexity of coordinating semantically related changes across the codebase. In this work, we characterize Hunk4J, a dataset of multi-hunk patches derived from 372 real-world defects. We propose hunk divergence, a metric that quantifies the variation among edits in a patch by capturing lexical, structural, and file-level differences, while incorporating the number of hunks involved. We further define spatial proximity, a classification that models how hunks are spatially distributed across the program hierarchy. Our empirical study spanning six LLMs reveals that model success rates decline with increased divergence and spatial dispersion. Notably, when using the LLM alone, no model succeeds in the most dispersed Fragment class. These findings highlight a critical gap in LLM capabilities and motivate divergence-aware repair strategies.
