The paper introduces CAST, a concept-guided artifact suppression tuning framework that uses sparse autoencoders to identify and suppress note-specific artifacts in clinical language models. CAST labels latent features with an LLM-assisted pipeline and ICD‑10 constraints, then fine‑tunes the model while providing post‑hoc per‑concept attributions for auditability. In experiments on MIMIC‑IV discharge‑note mortality prediction, CAST outperforms standard fine‑tuned encoders and competes with strong LLM baselines while offering a feature‑level audit trail of clinical concepts and suppressed artifacts.

arXiv:2605. 30716v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Generating clinically useful pathology reports for pathology cases from whole-slide images (WSIs) is challenging due to gigapixel resolution, long visual-token sequences, and the complexity of case-level reasoning, where a single case may contain multiple WSIs with heterogeneous tissues and ambiguous findings.
