| Challenge: | Existing training paradigms fail to explicitly target factual accuracy, resulting in inaccuracies and serious patient safety risks. |
| Approach: | They propose an automatic and generalizable report evaluation technique that uses question proposing and answering to enable controllable, structured reasoning grounded in medical domain knowledge and the factual correctness of the report. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method can improve human preference scores and perform better on downstream tasks. |

| Challenge: | Multi-hop question answering (QA) requires an information retrieval system that can find multiple supporting evidence needed to answer the question. |
| Approach: | They propose a technique that uses information of entities present in the initial retrieved evidence to learn to ‘hop’ onto other relevant evidence. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method boosts retrieval performance on a multi-hop question answering dataset with 5 million Wikipedia paragraphs and a model without training increases its performance by 10.59 F1. |
