Med-REFL: Medical Reasoning Enhancement via Self-Corrected Fine-grained Reflection

  • 通过全局评估推理路径,自动构建优化数据对。
  • 在MedQA上使Llama3.1-8B提升5.82%,超大模型表现。
  • 适用于医疗、逻辑等多领域,防止虚假反思问题。

大型推理模型在数学等可验证领域表现优异,但在医学领域因中间推理难以评估而难以自我修正,验证瓶颈制约了高风险应用中可靠AI推理器的发展。本文提出Med-REFL,一种无需人类标注或模型蒸馏的细粒度反思学习框架。该方法通过确定性结构评估推理空间,自动生成偏好数据用于反思训练。通过对思维树中所有探索路径的全局评估,量化修正行为的价值,实现直接偏好优化对的自动构建,使模型学会识别并修正自身推理谬误。大量实验表明,Med-REFL在多种模型架构和医疗基准上均取得稳健提升:在MedQA上使通用模型Llama3.1-8B提升5.82%,使最先进的Huatuo-o1提升4.13%。其8B版本在7-8B模型中达到最优性能,甚至媲美两倍规模的模型。关键消融实验显示,该方法可推广至逻辑推理等领域,并有效缓解大模型中的‘虚假反思’现象。本框架为验证瓶颈提供了可扩展解决方案,推动医疗等高风险领域更可靠的AI推理器发展。代码已开源:https://github.com/TianYin123/Med-REFL。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Large reasoning models excel in domains like mathematics where intermediate reasoning is straightforward to verify, but struggle to self-correct in medicine fields where evaluating intermediate reasoning is cumbersome and expensive. This verification bottleneck hinders the development of reliable AI reasoners for high-stakes application. Here we propose Med-REFL, a novel framework that learns fine-grained reflection without human labels or model distillation. Med-REFL introduces a deterministic structural assessment of the reasoning space to automatically generate preference data for reflection. By globally evaluating all explored reasoning paths in a tree-of-thoughts, our method quantifies the value of corrective actions, enabling the automated construction of direct preference optimization pairs. This trains the model to recognize and amend its own reasoning fallacies. Extensive experiments show Med-REFL delivers robust gains across diverse models architectures and medical benchmarks, boosting a general-purpose Llama3.1-8B by +5.82% and the state-of-the-art Huatuo-o1 by +4.13% on the MedQA benchmark. Our Med-REFL-8B achieves state-of-the-art performance among 7-8B models while even competing with models twice its size. Crucially, targeted ablations prove its success generalizes to other domains such as logical reasoning and mitigates the `fake reflection' phenomenon in LRMs. Ultimately, our framework provides a scalable solution to the verification bottleneck, paving the way for more reliable AI reasoners in high-stakes domains like medicine. Med-REFL has been made publicly available in https://github.com/TianYin123/Med-REFL.
