<span>Introduction</span>

Med-REFL (Medical Reasoning Enhancement via self-corrected Fine-grained refLection) is a novel framework designed to enhance the complex reasoning capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) in the medical domain.

Instead of focusing solely on the final answer, Med-REFL improves the model's intermediate reasoning process. It leverages a Tree-of-Thought (ToT) methodology to explore diverse reasoning paths and automatically constructs Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) data. This trains the model to identify and correct its own reasoning errors, leading to more accurate and trustworthy outputs.

This repository contains the LoRA weights produced by the Med-REFL framework for various base models.

<span>Available Weights</span>

The Med-REFL LoRA weights can be applied to the following base models to enhance their medical reasoning abilities.

<span> Qwen2.5-7B Model Performance</span>

The following table shows the performance of the Qwen2.5-7B model on the In-Domain benchmark before and after applying Med-REFL.

<span>Usage</span>

You can deploy it with tools like vllm. For more usages, please refer to our github page.

The expected beneficial effect of the drug that caused this patient's symptoms is most likely due to which of the following actions?\nOptions:\nA: Inhibition of thymidine synthesis\nB: Inhibition of proteasome\nC: Hyperstabilization of microtubules\nD: Generation of free radicals\nE: Cross-linking of DNA"

# Convert the formatted prompt into input tensors
