arXiv:2607. 22984v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Machine learning models for clinical prediction tasks, such as in-hospital mortality and sepsis onset, routinely achieve high AUROC scores.
arXiv:2607. 07725v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Genomic prediction models often fail to transfer across institutions because sequencing panels differ across sites, creating structural feature missingness at deployment.
The paper introduces a new metric called Localized AUC (LAUC), a weighted version of the traditional AUC, to detect performance heterogeneity in risk prediction models. Using LAUC, the authors develop a method named LOCATOR that identifies patient cohorts where the model’s predictions are inaccurate. They validate LOCATOR on both real-world data and simulations and provide a statistical foundation for applying LAUC in this context.
arXiv:2607. 26752v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Medical world models aim to learn a latent state of patient or organ physiology and a transition function that forecasts how that state evolves under interventions, supporting downstream tasks from imaging-based diagnosis to digital-twin treatment planning.
arXiv:2605. 12895v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Clinical decision-support systems are expert systems whose recommendations clinicians act on directly, yet they are usually cleared on one aggregate accuracy number from a held-out test set.
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.
