Researchers have developed a new framework for interpreting clinical text predictions made by language models without requiring concept supervision. This approach uses a cross-attention bottleneck to estimate concept relevance for each text token, enabling interpretable predictions while maintaining strong performance. The framework was tested on tasks including chest trauma severity stratification and in-hospital mortality prediction using the MIMIC-III dataset, achieving performance close to blackbox models and providing both cohort- and patient-level interpretability.
