arXiv:2606. 30657v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Surgical outcomes depend not only on patient factors and postoperative care but are also strongly influenced by the quality of the operation itself.

arXiv:2606. 16337v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Predictive modeling for clinical tabular data is central to clinical decision support and therefore requires not only strong predictive performance but also transparent decision logic.

arXiv:2606. 19183v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) can make clinical decision support more accessible by interpreting free-text documentation, but their direct use as diagnostic engines is limited by sensitivity to prompts, information order, and plausible but incorrect outputs.

arXiv:2607. 15394v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Black-box models limit the adoption of artificial intelligence in medicine due to their lack of interpretability and reproducibility.

arXiv:2607. 19524v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Federated learning (FL) offers a promising approach to privacy-preserving clinical risk prediction, but its deployment remains limited by restricted data sharing, client heterogeneity, class imbalance, and the lack of realistic tabular electronic health record (EHR) benchmarks.

arXiv:2608. 07522v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present a structured review of commonly used Explainable machine learning (XML) methodologies, including global and local interpretability tools such as SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP), Local Interpretable Model-Agnostic Explanations (LIME), Partial Dependence Plots (PDP), and Individual Conditional Expectation (ICE) plots.

arXiv:2505. 16941v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Foundation models (FMs) promise to address core limitations of traditional supervised machine learning: (i) reliance on large amounts of labeled data, (ii) task specificity, and (iii) poor transportability.
