The paper establishes connections between Consistency-Based Diagnosis (CBD) and concepts of Actual Causality and Causal Responsibility from the perspective of Explainable AI (XAI). It highlights that CBD has received limited attention within the XAI community and suggests that linking these areas could positively influence both XAI and Explainable Data Management.

The paper examines how machine learning (ML) in medicine parallels clinical translation, framing this relationship as a generative analogy. It identifies epistemic and methodological warrants from clinical translation that are often invoked in ML discussions and analyzes how these warrants apply analogically to ML. The authors propose a new form of ML reliabilism, interpreting clinical translation warrants in reliabilist terms and showing how this perspective can inform ML systems distinct from existing reliabilist accounts in philosophy of AI.

arXiv:2606. 00044v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The integration of artificial intelligence into clinical medicine creates a fundamental tension between algorithmic probabilistic reasoning and the experiential intuition of expert physicians; applying Lawrence Lessig's \enquote{Code is Law} framework, I argue that the architecture of clinical AI systems already functions as de facto medical regulation, reshaping liability and the standard of care.

arXiv:2608. 14804v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have become the dominant interface of clinical artificial intelligence, yet the interface they expose (text in, text out, one context window at a time) maintains no explicit, persistent, governed representation of what is currently true about a patient.

The paper reviews how Large Language Models (LLMs) are being adapted for medical reasoning, moving beyond single-step answers to systems that can systematically, transparently, and verifiably reason. It introduces a taxonomy of enhancement techniques, split into training-time methods such as supervised fine‑tuning and reinforcement learning, and test-time methods like prompt engineering and multi‑agent systems. The review examines their application across text, image, and code modalities in key clinical areas—diagnosis, education, and treatment planning—and tracks the shift in evaluation benchmarks from simple accuracy to more nuanced assessments of reasoning quality and visual interpretability.
