Clinical LLM networks risk diagnostic safety due to topological bottlenecks

A new research paper explores the spectral dynamics of semantic drift in clinical multi-agent language model networks. The study mathematically demonstrates that common network architectures like scale-free and small-world models, often assumed for optimal communication, actually compromise diagnostic safety. By analyzing communication uncertainty in a Bio_ClinicalBERT embedding space, the research shows that dense cliques within these networks can trap hallucinated data, preventing global consensus and leading to significant degradation in cosine similarity and catastrophic variance amplification. The paper proposes a technique involving dynamic spectral monitoring and algebraic connectivity bounds to ensure reliable autonomous medical diagnostics by treating topological stability as a critical quantitative factor.
