Look What the Probes Dragged In! Real-World Chest X-ray Shortcuts in MedCLIP
Vision-language models, such as contrastive language-image pre-training (CLIP)-based approaches, have reached state-of-the-art (SOTA) results in medical artificial intelligence. However, recent work reveals that CLIP-based models remain vulnerable to shortcuts. We investigate how real-world shortcuts manifest across different layers of the medical CLIP-based model, MedCLIP, and its vision encoder, a frozen ResNet-50. We attach 17 linear classification probes to the intermediate layers of the Res
