Defining and Categorising Human-AI Interactions in Clinical Trials: A Multidimensional Human-AI Classification Approach

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The paper introduces a multidimensional framework for classifying human‑AI interactions (HAIIs) in clinical trials, categorising interactions by AI tasks, human‑AI relationships, interaction configurations, and interacting human groups. It evaluates the framework by applying it to 15 trials, with categorisation performed by both human reviewers and large language model classifiers. The study demonstrates that LLMs can assist in categorisation while highlighting the continued need for human judgment when trial records are incomplete or ambiguous.

Rethinking How We Evaluate Methodological Progress in Health AI

The study re‑implements 12 AI algorithms for electronic health records within a unified framework and evaluates them on MIMIC‑IV and NWICU datasets. It compares expert‑authored clinically meaningful tasks with randomly generated tasks, finding that pairwise algorithm comparisons transfer well across task families and datasets, yet clinically meaningful tasks show stronger task‑method interactions. The results also reveal that newer algorithms do not consistently outperform older ones, with gradient‑boosted trees remaining highly competitive when combined with modern EHR representations.

Retrieval-Augmented Agentic Rubric Generation for Reliable Medical Response Evaluation

The paper introduces a retrieval‑augmented multi‑agent framework that automatically generates instance‑specific evaluation rubrics for medical language models. By retrieving authoritative medical evidence, decomposing it into atomic facts, and combining these with user interaction constraints, the system produces fine‑grained criteria that outperform GPT‑4o on HealthBench and LLMEval‑Med. The generated rubrics also guide response refinement, improving medical LLM output quality by 9.2%.
