AutoAdapt: Reliable Few-Shot Adaptation under Clinical Distribution Shifts

Large pretrained clinical models provide a practical way to reuse learned prior knowledge across hospitals by adapting models to them.

Key points

  • In practice, a target hospital may only have a small labeled patient cohort, a setting commonly referred to as few-shot adaptation.
  • In this work, we introduce AutoAdapt with two core designs to deal with these challenges.
  • These selected strategies then form a combination for effective few-shot adaptation.
  • We conduct extensive experiments across critical care, emergency care, and diagnostic datasets, and the results show that AutoAdapt consistently achieves state-of-the-art performance using only a few patients for adaptation.
