Large Language Model Few-Shot Prompting with Dilemma Training Outperforms Human Surrogates in Predicting Patient Preferences

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

The paper introduces P4-DT, a personalized patient preference predictor that uses dilemma training to elicit context‑dependent decision reasoning. In a study of 12 patient‑surrogate pairs, P4‑DT achieved 81.7% accuracy in predicting patient treatment choices, outperforming unassisted surrogates (55.0%) and surrogates aided by a simpler P4 model (61.7%). The authors show that incorporating contextual scenarios and open‑ended text into prompts improves accuracy by 15 percentage points over static value ratings.

CARE: Causally-Aligned Reasoning Exploration for Medical Large Language Models

CARE: Causally-Aligned Reasoning Exploration for Medical Large Language Models proposes a new framework to improve medical reasoning in LLMs. It introduces two key conditions—Causal Sufficiency and Proximal Learnability—to curate high-quality training trajectories, using agreement-based self-verification and dynamic entropy bounds. Experiments on medical multimodal and text-only benchmarks show that CARE outperforms competitors, reducing incorrect reasoning and enhancing training stability.
