4/n: Why this matters:
• Interpretability baked in - paths double as explanations.
•Efficiency - huge KG reductions help scale to real-world biomedical workloads.
•Generalization - works in unseen (inductive) settings.

2/n: K-Paths is not just a retrieval method.
It’s a pipeline that combines:
• Heuristics path finding (Yen’s algorithm)
• Diversity-aware selection
• Graph pruning
• Natural language transformation to aid reasoning for LLMs.
•GNN/LLM integration

Thrilled to share our KDD 2025 paper: Can large language models (LLMs) reason like biomedical scientists?

We introduce K-Paths, a retrieval framework for extracting reasoning paths from knowledge graphs (KGs) to aid drug discovery tasks.

Speech tech is everywhere, even healthcare. But how well does it work for African accented English? 🤔
We benchmarked SOTA models for speaker diarization, ASR & LLM summarization on medical & general conversations.
Find me at the 11 am poster session in Hall 3 to learn more!
