SafeTune is a source‑available library that consolidates four safety‑intervention paradigms—post‑hoc weight recovery, safety‑constrained fine‑tuning, gradient‑based unlearning, and inference‑time steering—into a single, configuration‑driven workflow. It offers shared interpretability, evaluation, and deployment tools, and its modular registry allows easy addition of new methods, benchmarks, judges, models, and fine‑tuning domains. The authors demonstrate SafeTune with controlled comparisons and case studies in finance and medical deployments, showing how it characterizes safety drift, evaluates interventions on refusal‑behavior and capability metrics, and supports calibrated or layered mitigation.

arXiv:2606. 05463v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Patient safety event triage, determining whether a clinical event is reportable under jurisdiction-specific policy, is a high-stakes task typically performed manually by patient safety experts.

The paper introduces MIMIC-DOS, a dataset derived from MIMIC-IV that focuses on ICU cases where patient symptoms and medical signs are discordant. It presents CARE, a privacy‑compliant multi‑stage agentic reasoning framework that uses a proprietary LLM to generate structured categories and transitions, while a local LLM performs evidence acquisition and decision‑making. In retrospective evaluations on MIMIC‑DOS, CARE outperforms other LLMs and agentic workflows, demonstrating stronger handling of conflicting clinical evidence while preserving patient privacy.

The paper introduces BRIE, a continuously maintainable benchmark for evaluating large language models (LLMs) in electronic health record (EHR) information retrieval. It presents a scalable framework that automatically generates question–answer pairs from longitudinal EHR notes, validated by nineteen clinicians. The benchmark allows assessment of multiple inference strategies and highlights that state‑of‑the‑art LLMs often miss clinically important information, especially when synthesis across documents is required.

arXiv:2607. 04907v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deploying Large Language Models (LLMs) in high-stakes clinical settings remains limited by structural hallucinations, weak deterministic reasoning over tabular patient data, and omissions in vector retrieval.

The paper introduces BRIE, a scalable framework that automatically creates question–answer pairs from longitudinal electronic health record notes, validated by nineteen clinicians. It offers a continuously maintainable benchmark for evaluating large language models in clinical settings, addressing limitations of manual, costly, and quickly outdated existing benchmarks. Experiments across nine LLMs and five inference strategies reveal that even state‑of‑the‑art systems often miss clinically important information, especially for synthesis‑heavy queries.
