Machine Learning for Healthcare 20252025Large language models demonstrate impressive performance on standardized healthcare benchmarks, yet their deployment readiness for real-world environments remains poorly understood. Current medical benchmarks present idealized scenarios that misrepresent the complexity of actual clinical data. We systematically evaluate LLM robustness by introducing clinician-validated perturbations to MedQA that mirror

Transactions on Machine Learning Research2025While accuracy is a critical requirement for time series forecasting, an equally important desideratum is reasonable forecast volatility across forecast creation dates (FCDs). Even highly accurate models can produce erratic revisions between FCDs, undermining trust and disrupting downstream decision-making. To improve the volatility of forecast revisions, state-of-the-art models like MQCNN, MQT, and SPADE
