The segmentation of optic disc(OD) and optic cup(OC) from fundus images is an important fundamental task for glaucoma diagnosis. In the clinical practice, it is often necessary to collect opinions from multiple experts to obtain the final OD/OC annotation. This clinical routine helps to mitigate the individual bias. But when data is multiply annotated, standard deep learning models will be inapplicable. In this paper, we propose a novel neural network framework to learn OD/OC segmentation from multi-rater annotations. The segmentation results are self-calibrated through the iterative optimization of multi-rater expertness estimation and calibrated OD/OC segmentation. In this way, the proposed method can realize a mutual improvement of both tasks and finally obtain a refined segmentation result. Specifically, we propose Diverging Model(DivM) and Converging Model(ConM) to process the two tasks respectively. ConM segments the raw image based on the multi-rater expertness map provided by DivM. DivM generates multi-rater expertness map from the segmentation mask provided by ConM. The experiment results show that by recurrently running ConM and DivM, the results can be self-calibrated so as to outperform a range of state-of-the-art(SOTA) multi-rater segmentation methods.

As multimodal AI becomes widely used for credit risk assessment and document review, a domain-specific benchmark is urgently needed that (1) reflects documents and workflows specific to financial credit applications, (2) includes credit-specific understanding and real-world robustness, and (3) preserves privacy compliance without sacrificing practical utility. Here, we introduce FCMBench-V1.0 -- a large-scale financial credit multimodal benchmark for real-world applications, covering 18 core certificate types, with 4,043 privacy-compliant images and 8,446 QA samples. The FCMBench evaluation framework consists of three dimensions: Perception, Reasoning, and Robustness, including 3 foundational perception tasks, 4 credit-specific reasoning tasks that require decision-oriented understanding of visual evidence, and 10 real-world acquisition artifact types for robustness stress testing. To reconcile compliance with realism, we construct all samples via a closed synthesis-capture pipeline: we manually synthesize document templates with virtual content and capture scenario-aware images in-house. This design also mitigates pre-training data leakage by avoiding web-sourced or publicly released images. FCMBench can effectively discriminate performance disparities and robustness across modern vision-language models. Extensive experiments were conducted on 23 state-of-the-art vision-language models (VLMs) from 14 top AI companies and research institutes. Among them, Gemini 3 Pro achieves the best F1(\%) score as a commercial model (64.61), Qwen3-VL-235B achieves the best score as an open-source baseline (57.27), and our financial credit-specific model, Qfin-VL-Instruct, achieves the top overall score (64.92). Robustness evaluations show that even top-performing models suffer noticeable performance drops under acquisition artifacts.

Deep learning based medical imaging classification models usually suffer from the domain shift problem, where the classification performance drops when training data and real-world data differ in imaging equipment manufacturer, image acquisition protocol, patient populations, etc. We propose Feature Centroid Contrast Learning (FCCL), which can improve target domain classification performance by extra supervision during training with contrastive loss between instance and class centroid. Compared with current unsupervised domain adaptation and domain generalization methods, FCCL performs better while only requires labeled image data from a single source domain and no target domain. We verify through extensive experiments that FCCL can achieve superior performance on at least three imaging modalities, i.e. fundus photographs, dermatoscopic images, and H & E tissue images.

With the advancement of deep learning techniques, an increasing number of methods have been proposed for optic disc and cup (OD/OC) segmentation from the fundus images. Clinically, OD/OC segmentation is often annotated by multiple clinical experts to mitigate the personal bias. However, it is hard to train the automated deep learning models on multiple labels. A common practice to tackle the issue is majority vote, e.g., taking the average of multiple labels. However such a strategy ignores the different expertness of medical experts. Motivated by the observation that OD/OC segmentation is often used for the glaucoma diagnosis clinically, in this paper, we propose a novel strategy to fuse the multi-rater OD/OC segmentation labels via the glaucoma diagnosis performance. Specifically, we assess the expertness of each rater through an attentive glaucoma diagnosis network. For each rater, its contribution for the diagnosis will be reflected as an expertness map. To ensure the expertness maps are general for different glaucoma diagnosis models, we further propose an Expertness Generator (ExpG) to eliminate the high-frequency components in the optimization process. Based on the obtained expertness maps, the multi-rater labels can be fused as a single ground-truth which we dubbed as Diagnosis First Ground-truth (DiagFirstGT). Experimental results show that by using DiagFirstGT as ground-truth, OD/OC segmentation networks will predict the masks with superior glaucoma diagnosis performance.
