Fully Open Meditron: An Auditable Pipeline for Clinical LLMs

Xavier Theimer-Lienhard, Mushtaha El-Amin, Fay Elhassan +5

Clinical decision support systems (CDSS) require scrutable, auditable pipelines that enable rigorous, reproducible validation. Yet current LLM-based CDSS remain largely opaque. Mos…

Preferred, Not Safer: Pairwise Preference Is a Poor Proxy for Clinical Safety

Fay Elhassan, David Sasu, Alexandra Kulinkina +2

We evaluate whether clinician pairwise preferences provide a reliable signal of clinical safety in large language model (LLM) evaluation using expert feedback from MOOVE (Massive O…

MoBayes: A Modular Bayesian Framework for Separating Reasoning from Language in Conversational Clinical Decision Support

Yusuf Kesmen, Fay Elhassan, Jiayi Ma +7

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used for conversational clinical decision support, yet they conflate next token prediction with probabilistic decision making. We argu…

Pitch Accent Detection improves Pretrained Automatic Speech Recognition

David Sasu, Natalie Schluter

We show the performance of Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) systems that use semi-supervised speech representations can be boosted by a complimentary pitch accent detection modul…

Learning More with Less: Self-Supervised Approaches for Low-Resource Speech Emotion Recognition

Ziwei Gong, Pengyuan Shi, Kaan Donbekci +5

Speech Emotion Recognition (SER) has seen significant progress with deep learning, yet remains challenging for Low-Resource Languages (LRLs) due to the scarcity of annotated data.…
