arXiv:2607. 11621v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Aphasia following stroke commonly produces systematic naming errors with characteristic profiles, but whether general-purpose language models not designed for clinical simulation can reproduce these patterns remains untested.
arXiv:2608. 06429v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Interpretability methods for large language models (LLMs) describe internal state but do not directly test whether that state is causally sufficient to produce the observed behavior.
arXiv:2608. 12717v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Mechanistic interpretability of large language models lacks spatially resolved, falsifiable tools for testing whether internal components are specialized for distinct cognitive operations.
arXiv:2606. 15696v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Correct Information Units (CIUs) are central to discourse assessment in aphasia because they quantify communicative informativeness rather than linguistic form alone.
arXiv:2603. 28387v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Trustworthy clinical AI requires that performance gains reflect genuine evidence integration rather than surface-level artifacts.
arXiv:2603.28387v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Trustworthy clinical AI must use real evidence and avoid relying on surface-level artifacts. We evaluate 12 open-weight vision-language model...
The study introduces a scalable acoustic‑masking method to quantify how much each consonant contributes to word intelligibility. By silencing individual consonants in isolated words and measuring misrecognition rates with three ASR models, the authors define a mask‑induced misrecognition rate (MMR). Across English, Spanish, German, and Czech, MMR negatively correlates with phoneme frequency and positively with functional load, revealing that consonant importance varies by language.
arXiv:2609.21789v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Most multilingual dysarthria-severity systems either train on a single aetiology-language pair or pool heterogeneous aetiologies into one label space....
The paper investigates whether layer-wise visual‑text similarity in multimodal large language models (MLLMs) truly reflects content‑level cross‑modal interaction. By injecting Gaussian noise into the visual stream of 13 MLLMs, the authors show that task accuracy drops sharply while traditional scalar alignment metrics (CKA, SVCCA, MIR, principal‑angle cosine) fail to distinguish corrupted from clean inputs, a phenomenon they term the alignment illusion. They propose the principal‑angle gap (PA gap) as a more reliable geometric diagnostic that correlates better with task performance and reveals when internal geometry diverges from accuracy.
arXiv:2606. 07721v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Objectives: Automatic data extraction from free-text radiology reports enables large-scale research, but few studies assessed the performance of large language models (LLMs) on Dutch neuroradiology reports.
