RubricsTree introduces a hierarchical taxonomy of over 100 clinically-verifiable Boolean rubrics, evolved from 4,000 real user queries via human-in-the-loop curation. It enables scalable, expert-aligned evaluation of personal health agents by dynamically routing queries to relevant rubrics and outperforms baseline methods in alignment, context sensitivity, and model performance gains of up to 66% on HealthBench.

RubricsTree: Scalable Evaluation Framework for Personal Health Agents
RubricsTree introduces a hierarchical taxonomy of over 100 clinically-verifiable Boolean rubrics, evolved from 4,000 real user queries via human-in-the-loop curation. It enables scalable, expert-aligned evaluation of personal health agents by dynamically routing queries to relevant rubrics and outperforms baseline methods in alignment, context degradation detection, and model performance gains of up to 66% on HealthBench.
Test-Time Steering Resolves Temporal Fact Conflicts in LLMs
Researchers identify parametric temporal conflicts in language models where outdated facts persist in parameters. They introduce Temporal Attractor Steering (TAS), a test-time method that resolves 29-57% of such conflicts without retraining, maintaining 85-99% accuracy on non-conflict queries and outperforming a baseline on three of four models.
De-biased VLM-as-3D-Judge Protocol for Furniture Generation
A de-biased VLM-based judge protocol specializes TRELLIS on furniture generation using lightweight adaptation. The protocol addresses failure modes like image overload and geometry-hiding, with calibration showing 0.83–1.0 win rates and base-vs-base symmetry at 0.5. Among six adaptation methods, conditioner repair under severe degradation achieves parity with the base model, while no method exceeds a 65% win-rate target.
Benchmarking small LLMs on hard HTML data extraction
A user tested models from 2B to 35B parameters on 29 difficult HTML data extraction pages, finding that smaller models like gemma4 e2b and e4b outperform larger ones. Qwen3.6 27B led in performance, while all MOE models scored poorly, highlighting the importance of task-specific benchmarking.
LLMs Predict Dementia and Depression from Clinical Speech
A study uses open-weight large language models to assess dementia and depression severity from clinical interviews. LLMs achieve accurate zero-shot depression prediction (MAE 0.60) and improved dementia assessment with feature extraction (MAE 0.78), reducing errors by up to 35%. Pause-enriched transcripts match human transcriptions, supporting automated screening pipelines for neuropsychiatric disorders.
