Clin-REACT-14B
Model name in the manuscript: Clin-REACT 14B Base model: baichuan-inc/Baichuan-M1-14B-Instruct Release format: merged full-parameter checkpointClin-REACT is a family of large language models fine-tuned for clinical reasoning using the ICU-REACT framework. The models are designed to reason over clinically relevant information and produce responses for tasks spanning ICU decision-making and broader clinical-reasoning benchmarks.
This repository contains the merged, self-contained checkpoint. The LoRA adapter used during supervised fine-tuning has been merged into the corresponding base-model weights for distribution and inference.
Benchmark results
Clin-REACT 14B is compared with its Baichuan-M1-14B-Instruct backbone and selected larger open general-purpose and medical models.
Scores below are the mean primary benchmark scores, reported as percentages. Higher is better. The macro average is the unweighted mean of the five benchmark primary scores. Bold indicates the best result within the comparison set shown for each benchmark.
The benchmarks contain 71 ICU-REACT cases, 174 SCT-Bench cases, 72 ER-Reason cases, 1,254 MedRBench cases, and 934 VivaBench cases. Because the benchmarks use different task formulations and primary scoring procedures, individual benchmark scores should primarily be interpreted within each benchmark.
Installation
pip install -U torch transformers accelerateLoad and use the model
Baichuan-M1 uses custom Transformers code, so trust_remote_code=True is required when loading the merged checkpoint.
import torch
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
MODEL_ID = "macontreras98/Clin-REACT-14B"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(
MODEL_ID,
trust_remote_code=True,
)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
MODEL_ID,
trust_remote_code=True,
torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
device_map="auto",
)

outputs = model.generate(

)
generated_tokens = outputs[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:]
response = tokenizer.decode(
generated_tokens,

)
print(response)For exact benchmark reproduction, use the same prompting, chat template, preprocessing, and decoding configuration used in the ICU-REACT evaluation pipeline.
Intended use and limitations
Clin-REACT is released for research on clinical reasoning and medical AI. It is not a medical device and should not be used as a substitute for professional clinical judgment, diagnosis, treatment decisions, or other autonomous patient-care decisions.
Benchmark performance does not establish clinical safety, prospective effectiveness, or suitability for deployment. Users are responsible for evaluating the model for their own setting and for complying with applicable privacy, security, institutional, and regulatory requirements.
License
Clin-REACT-14B is a fine-tuned derivative of baichuan-inc/Baichuan-M1-14B-Instruct and remains subject to the applicable Baichuan-M1-14B Community License and upstream terms. Users should review the upstream license before redistribution or commercial use.
