MedRSI:面向医疗 Agent 的临床对齐递归自我改进
医疗 agent 通常将通用推理模型与专用临床工具结合,但其能力在部署前基本由临床医生和工程师设计固定。递归自我改进(RSI)提供另一种范式,使 agent 从自身失败中学习并自主扩展能力,但直接用于医疗会带来根本性安全挑战。论文提出 MedRSI,称其为首个面向医学的递归自我改进框架,通过工具组合与任务特定模型训练持续把诊断失败转化为新的临床能力。受临床实践启发,MedRSI 引入两种临床对齐的自演化机制:临床成本感知的失败优先级排序,按潜在临床后果而非仅按频率决定改进方向;以及快发现与慢注册分离,将快速能力发明与保守注册流程区分开。
AI推荐理由 提出面向医疗 agent 的递归自我改进框架 MedRSI,通过工具组合与任务特定模型训练把诊断失败转化为新临床能力,并引入临床成本感知的失败优先级与快发现慢注册机制。属于医疗 AI 与 agent 自演化交叉方向,但摘要未提供量化结果,安全性主张仍需验证。

Abstract:Medical agents increasingly combine general reasoning models with specialized clinical tools, yet their capabilities remain largely fixed by what clinicians and engineers design before deployment. Recursive self-improvement (RSI) offers a different paradigm in which agents learn from their own failures and autonomously expand their capabilities, but directly applying RSI to medicine introduces fundamental safety challenges. We introduce MedRSI, the first recursive self-improvement framework for medicine, which continuously transforms diagnostic failures into new clinical capabilities through tool composition and task-specific model training. Inspired by clinical practice, MedRSI introduces two mechanisms for clinically aligned self-evolution. Clinical-cost-aware failure prioritization directs improvement toward errors according to their potential clinical consequences rather than frequency alone. Fast discovery with slow registration separates rapid capability invention from conservative adoption, allowing new tools to enter the persistent agent only after demonstrating sustained benefit across subsequent patient cohorts. Across public glaucoma and heart disease benchmarks and two private clinical tasks, MedRSI progressively develops segmentation, measurement, prediction, multimodal reasoning, and generative capabilities, surpasses manually engineered medical agents, and autonomously discovers solutions to clinical problems not anticipated by its original designers. Our results show that medical agents need not remain constrained by capabilities specified before deployment: with clinically grounded mechanisms governing what to improve and what to retain, they can continuously construct, validate, and accumulate new capabilities from diagnostic experience.
