New GAVEL protocol uses LLMs to adjudicate clinical timeline discrepancies

Researchers have developed GAVEL, a novel LLM judge protocol designed to compare clinical timelines extracted from case reports against the original reports themselves. This system aims to identify and adjudicate discrepancies without relying on a single ground truth timeline. In evaluations, GAVEL demonstrated a high rate of agreement with manual reviews and significantly reduced the number of discrepancies in merged timelines, improving the overall accuracy and reliability of extracted clinical information. AI

IMPACT Enhances accuracy in clinical data extraction, potentially improving medical research and patient care through more reliable timeline analysis.

    Grounded Adjudication of Variations across Extracted TimeLines (GAVEL): Comparing Clinical Timelines Against Their Case Reports

    arXiv:2609.13475v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing pipelines for clinical timeline extraction from case reports are evaluated using an expert reference and are limited by imperfect reference annotations and imprecise event alignment. We developed GAVEL, an LLM judge protoco…
