Improving Retrieval-Augmented Generation without Taxonomy-based Error Categorization
Gongbo Zhang, Yifan Peng, Chunhua Weng
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) improves the factual accuracy of large language model (LLM) outputs by grounding generation in external knowledge. Recent agentic RAG systems e…
CPGPrompt: Translating Clinical Guidelines into LLM-Executable Decision Support
Ruiqi Deng, Geoffrey Martin, Tony Wang +6
Clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) provide evidence-based recommendations for patient care; however, integrating them into Artificial Intelligence (AI) remains challenging. Previo…
Toward Global Large Language Models in Medicine
Rui Yang, Huitao Li, Weihao Xuan +48
Despite continuous advances in medical technology, the global distribution of health care resources remains uneven. The development of large language models (LLMs) has transformed…
EvidenceOutcomes: a Dataset of Clinical Trial Publications with Clinically Meaningful Outcomes
Yiliang Zhou, Abigail M. Newbury, Gongbo Zhang +4
The fundamental process of evidence extraction and synthesis in evidence-based medicine involves extracting PICO (Population, Intervention, Comparison, and Outcome) elements from b…
Natural Language Processing in Support of Evidence-based Medicine: A Scoping Review
Zihan Xu, Haotian Ma, Gongbo Zhang +3
Evidence-based medicine (EBM) is at the forefront of modern healthcare, emphasizing the use of the best available scientific evidence to guide clinical decisions. Due to the sheer…
Machine Learning Applications Related to Suicide in Military and Veterans: A Scoping Literature Review
Yuhan Zhang, Yishu Wei, Yanshan Wang +10
Suicide remains one of the main preventable causes of death among active service members and veterans. Early detection and prediction are crucial in suicide prevention. Machine lea…
WatchGuardian: Enabling User-Defined Personalized Just-in-Time Intervention on Smartwatch
Ying Lei, Yancheng Cao, Will Wang +13
While just-in-time interventions (JITIs) have effectively targeted common health behaviors, individuals often have unique needs to intervene in personal undesirable actions that ca…
Semi-Supervised Learning from Small Annotated Data and Large Unlabeled Data for Fine-grained PICO Entity Recognition
Fangyi Chen, Gongbo Zhang, Yilu Fang +2
Objective: Extracting PICO elements -- Participants, Intervention, Comparison, and Outcomes -- from clinical trial literature is essential for clinical evidence retrieval, appraisa…
A MapReduce Approach to Effectively Utilize Long Context Information in Retrieval Augmented Language Models
Gongbo Zhang, Zihan Xu, Qiao Jin +8
While holding great promise for improving and facilitating healthcare, large language models (LLMs) struggle to produce up-to-date responses on evolving topics due to outdated know…
Entry-level guide to the use of large language models for medical research
Qiao Jin, Nicholas Wan, Robert Leaman +20
Frontier large language models (LLMs), such as GPT-5, Claude 4.5, Gemini 3, Llama 4, and DeepSeek-R1, represent a transformative class of AI tools capable of revolutionizing variou…
Environment Scan of Generative AI Infrastructure for Clinical and Translational Science
Betina Idnay, Zihan Xu, William G. Adams +54

Closing the gap between open-source and commercial large language models for medical evidence summarization
Gongbo Zhang, Qiao Jin, Yiliang Zhou +11
Large language models (LLMs) hold great promise in summarizing medical evidence. Most recent studies focus on the application of proprietary LLMs. Using proprietary LLMs introduces…
A Span-based Model for Extracting Overlapping PICO Entities from RCT Publications
Gongbo Zhang, Yiliang Zhou, Yan Hu +3
Objectives Extraction of PICO (Populations, Interventions, Comparison, and Outcomes) entities is fundamental to evidence retrieval. We present a novel method PICOX to extract overl…
Leveraging Generative AI for Clinical Evidence Summarization Needs to Ensure Trustworthiness
