SatIR: Scalable High-Recall Constraint-Satisfaction-Based Information Retrieval for Clinical Trials Matching

arXiv:2604. 08849v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Many important retrieval problems are not merely problems of semantic similarity, but problems of constraint satisfaction: a retrieved item should be topically relevant to a query and satisfy explicit requirements involving negation, temporal conditions, numeric thresholds, exceptions, ontological relations, and incomplete evidence.

Health System Scale Semantic Search Across Unstructured Clinical Notes

arXiv:2604. 25605v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Introduction: Semantic search, which retrieves documents based on conceptual similarity rather than keywords, offers advantages for retrieval of clinical information.

Healthier LLMs: Retrieval-Augmented Generation for Public Health Question Answering

arXiv:2607. 06641v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) achieve promising results on medical question answering benchmarks, yet their use in public health is constrained by hallucinations and the rapid evolution of official guidance.

SkillReason: Reasoning-Enhanced Agent Skill Retrieval for Implicit User Requests

Large language model agents increasingly rely on reusable skills to extend their capabilities beyond parametric knowl- edge. However, retrieving the appropriate skill from a large- scale library remains challenging because realistic user re- quests are often concise and underspecified, stating only the task goal while leaving the required capabilities and execu- tion steps implicit.

Evaluating Retrieval-Augmented Generation vs. Long-Context Input for Clinical Reasoning over EHRs

arXiv:2508. 14817v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Objective: To evaluate whether retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) can serve as an efficient alternative to long-context prompting for clinical reasoning over electronic health records (EHRs).

Medi-Gemma: A Hybrid Clinical Decision Support System Integrating Deterministic EMR Analytics and Retrieval-Augmented Generation

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.

CXR-Retrieve: Compositional Text-to-Image Retrieval in Chest Radiography

Large chest radiography archives are difficult to search because most studies are paired only with free-text reports rather than structured clinical annotations. Vision-language models offer a natural interface for text-to-image retrieval, but current biomedical models are primarily optimized for report-to-image matching rather than for satisfying short clinical search queries.

Structure Over Scale: Schema-Constrained Causal Graphs for RAG

arXiv:2607. 22592v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Graph-based retrieval-augmented generation (GraphRAG) grounds answers in structured knowledge, but current systems extract entities and relationships exhaustively, producing graphs whose size and construction cost scale with corpus length rather than with the reasoning a query requires.
