FRAC-MAS: A Safe and Explainable Multi-Agent System for Fracture Diagnosis

Fracture detection and its clinical interpretability see notable improvements when deep vision models are integrated with agentic AI architectures. While deep learning models achieve high diagnostic performance, their black-box nature limits clinical adoption. We propose FRAC-MAS, an agentic AI system for automated, explainable, and safe bone fracture detection. The framework combines a stacked ensemble of four vision models with conformal prediction to produce statistically grounded differential diagnoses, while a multi-agent workflow performs independent verification, retrieves clinical guidelines, and generates patient-friendly reports. A pipeline-depth ablation study confirms that our multi-agent critic triages 86.6% of cases into a high-confidence auto-confirmed cohort while escalating uncertain cases, outperforming a single-agent baseline. Patient preference studies against Llama, MedGemma, and Gemini further demonstrate significantly more comprehensible clinical reports. These results suggest that integrating multi-agent critics with conformal guarantees enables safer radiology triage while preserving clinician oversight. More broadly, FRAC-MAS demonstrates how cooperative agentic architectures can serve as auditable, human-in-the-loop decision support systems for safety-critical healthcare. Our code is available at https://github.com/hardik1712/FRAC-MAS, and the website is available at https://frac-mas.vercel.app.

CraniMem: Cranial Inspired Gated and Bounded Memory for Agentic Systems

Large language model (LLM) agents are increasingly deployed in long running workflows, where they must preserve user and task state across many turns. Many existing agent memory systems behave like external databases with ad hoc read/write rules, which can yield unstable retention, limited consolidation, and vulnerability to distractor content. We present CraniMem, a neurocognitively motivated, gated and bounded multi-stage memory design for agentic systems. CraniMem couples goal conditioned gating and utility tagging with a bounded episodic buffer for near term continuity and a structured long-term knowledge graph for durable semantic recall. A scheduled consolidation loop replays high utility traces into the graph while pruning low utility items, keeping memory growth in check and reducing interference. On long horizon benchmarks evaluated under both clean inputs and injected noise, CraniMem is more robust than a Vanilla RAG and Mem0 baseline and exhibits smaller performance drops under distraction. Our code is available at https://github.com/PearlMody05/Cranimem and the accompanying PyPI package at https://pypi.org/project/cranimem.

Infectious Disease Forecasting in India using LLM's and Deep Learning

Many uncontrollable disease outbreaks of the past exposed several vulnerabilities in the healthcare systems worldwide. While advancements in technology assisted in the rapid creation of the vaccinations, there needs to be a pressing focus on the prevention and prediction of such massive outbreaks. Early detection and intervention of an outbreak can drastically reduce its impact on public health while also making the healthcare system more resilient. The complexity of disease transmission dynamics, influence of various directly and indirectly related factors and limitations of traditional approaches are the main bottlenecks in taking preventive actions. Specifically, this paper implements deep learning algorithms and LLM's to predict the severity of infectious disease outbreaks. Utilizing the historic data of several diseases that have spread in India and the climatic data spanning the past decade, the insights from our research aim to assist in creating a robust predictive system for any outbreaks in the future.

Cyberbullying or just Sarcasm? Unmasking Coordinated Networks on Reddit

With the rapid growth of social media usage, a common trend has emerged where users often make sarcastic comments on posts. While sarcasm can sometimes be harmless, it can blur the line with cyberbullying, especially when used in negative or harmful contexts. This growing issue has been exacerbated by the anonymity and vast reach of the internet, making cyberbullying a significant concern on platforms like Reddit. Our research focuses on distinguishing cyberbullying from sarcasm, particularly where online language nuances make it difficult to discern harmful intent. This study proposes a framework using natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning to differentiate between the two, addressing the limitations of traditional sentiment analysis in detecting nuanced behaviors. By analyzing a custom dataset scraped from Reddit, we achieved a 95.15% accuracy in distinguishing harmful content from sarcasm. Our findings also reveal that teenagers and minority groups are particularly vulnerable to cyberbullying. Additionally, our research uncovers coordinated graphs of groups involved in cyberbullying, identifying common patterns in their behavior. This research contributes to improving detection capabilities for safer online communities.
