Clinician use of language models diverges from how the models are evaluated

Krithik Vishwanath, Haitong Lin, Anton Alyakin +19

Large language model (LLM) assistants are being deployed to clinicians across health systems, and judgments about their readiness rest largely on benchmark scores, most of them der…

Large language models are vulnerable to incidental information in clinical documentation and reasoning

Krithik Vishwanath, Brandon Ye, Anton Alyakin +4

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly relied upon to support ambient documentation and clinical reasoning. Here we examine the impact of a failure mode shared between these…

"All You Need" is Not All You Need for a Paper Title: On the Origins of a Scientific Meme

Anton Alyakin

The 2017 paper ''Attention Is All You Need'' introduced the Transformer architecture-and inadvertently spawned one of machine learning's most persistent naming conventions. We anal…

Generalist Large Language Models Outperform Clinical Tools on Medical Benchmarks

Krithik Vishwanath, Mrigayu Ghosh, Anton Alyakin +3

Specialized clinical AI assistants are rapidly entering medical practice, often framed as safer or more reliable than general-purpose large language models (LLMs). Yet, unlike fron…

An Analysis of Euclidean vs. Graph-Based Framing for Bilingual Lexicon Induction from Word Embedding Spaces

Kelly Marchisio, Youngser Park, Ali Saad-Eldin +4

Much recent work in bilingual lexicon induction (BLI) views word embeddings as vectors in Euclidean space. As such, BLI is typically solved by finding a linear transformation that…
