OASIS: A Rubric-Based Multimodal Assessment Platform Using Large Language Models

OASIS (Open Assessment and Scoring Infrastructure Stack) is a systems platform for rubric-based grading of video, audio, and text with large language models. Scoring one artifact with an LLM is straightforward; deploying assessment at scale requires encounter management, rubric versioning, modality-aware execution, provenance capture, and human review. OASIS pairs a standalone command-line interface with a canonical integrated Elephant + MAPLES stack for encounter management and multimodal grading orchestration. Both paths can target hosted APIs or self-hosted open-weight models through Ollama and OpenAI-compatible endpoints such as vLLM. SimRubrics rubric authoring and the Wayfinder conversational agent gateway are optional extensions that use the same authenticated interfaces as human operators. Given a rubric and recorded encounters, OASIS produces per-criterion scores, evidence, and rationales, preserving execution artifacts for audit. Distinctive features include rubric-as-program compilation, progressive execution plans, content-addressable grading identity, transcript-augmented multimodal grading, explicit review state, and a shared command surface for humans and autonomous agents. Though developed in medical education, the architecture is domain-agnostic, applying wherever structured performance can be evaluated from recorded or written artifacts. In production at UT Southwestern Medical Center since Fall 2023, the platform has processed more than 7,000 encounters. This publication includes the report and project information, not application source, binaries, installation materials, sample data, or a tagged software release.

Property-guided Inverse Design of Metal-Organic Frameworks Using Quantum Natural Language Processing

In this study, we explore the potential of using quantum natural language processing (QNLP) to inverse design metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with targeted properties. Specifically, by analyzing 450 hypothetical MOF structures consisting of 3 topologies, 10 metal nodes and 15 organic ligands, we categorize these structures into four distinct classes for pore volume and $CO_{2}$ Henry's constant values. We then compare various QNLP models (i.e. the bag-of-words, DisCoCat (Distributional Compositional Categorical), and sequence-based models) to identify the most effective approach to process the MOF dataset. Using a classical simulator provided by the IBM Qiskit, the bag-of-words model is identified to be the optimum model, achieving validation accuracies of 88.6% and 78.0% for binary classification tasks on pore volume and $CO_{2}$ Henry's constant, respectively. Further, we developed multi-class classification models tailored to the probabilistic nature of quantum circuits, with average test accuracies of 92% and 80% across different classes for pore volume and $CO_{2}$ Henry's constant datasets. Finally, the performance of generating MOF with target properties showed accuracies of 93.5% for pore volume and 87% for $CO_{2}$ Henry's constant, respectively. Although our investigation covers only a fraction of the vast MOF search space, it marks a promising first step towards using quantum computing for materials design, offering a new perspective through which to explore the complex landscape of MOFs.

Quantum Computing Based Design of Multivariate Porous Materials

Multivariate (MTV) porous materials exhibit unique structural complexities based on diverse spatial arrangements of multiple building block combinations. These materials possess potential synergistic functionalities that exceed the sum of their individual components. However, the exponentially increasing design complexity of these materials poses challenges for accurate ground-state configuration prediction and design. To address this, a Hamiltonian model was developed for quantum computing that integrates compositional, structural, and balance constraints, enabling efficient optimization of the MTV configurations. The model employs a graph-based representation to encode linkers as qubits. To validate our model, a variational quantum circuit was constructed and executed using the Sampling VQE algorithm. Simulations on experimentally known MTV porous materials successfully reproduced their ground-state configurations, demonstrating the validity of our model. Furthermore, VQE calculations were performed on real quantum hardware for validation purposes, signaling a first step toward a practical quantum algorithm for the rational design of porous materials.

Large Language Models for Medical OSCE Assessment: A Novel Approach to Transcript Analysis

Grading Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs) is a time-consuming and expensive process, traditionally requiring extensive manual effort from human experts. In this study, we explore the potential of Large Language Models (LLMs) to assess skills related to medical student communication. We analyzed 2,027 video-recorded OSCE examinations from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center (UTSW), spanning four years (2019-2022), and several different medical cases or "stations." Specifically, our focus was on evaluating students' ability to summarize patients' medical history: we targeted the rubric item 'did the student summarize the patients' medical history?' from the communication skills rubric. After transcribing speech audio captured by OSCE videos using Whisper-v3, we studied the performance of various LLM-based approaches for grading students on this summarization task based on their examination transcripts. Using various frontier-level open-source and proprietary LLMs, we evaluated different techniques such as zero-shot chain-of-thought prompting, retrieval augmented generation, and multi-model ensemble methods. Our results show that frontier LLM models like GPT-4 achieved remarkable alignment with human graders, demonstrating a Cohen's kappa agreement of 0.88 and indicating strong potential for LLM-based OSCE grading to augment the current grading process. Open-source models also showed promising results, suggesting potential for widespread, cost-effective deployment. Further, we present a failure analysis identifying conditions where LLM grading may be less reliable in this context and recommend best practices for deploying LLMs in medical education settings.
