Comparative Performance of Frontier Large Language Models for Extracting High-Risk Pathologic Features from Unstructured Gastrointestinal Oncology Reports: A Systematic Benchmarking Study with Human and Traditional NLP Baselines

This systematic benchmarking study demonstrates that frontier large multimodal models, particularly Gemini 2.5 Pro and GPT-4o, significantly outperform both time-pressured human experts and traditional NLP baselines in extracting critical perineural invasion status from unstructured gastrointestinal pathology reports, while a novel failure mode taxonomy provides actionable guidance for model selection based on specific error signatures.

Advances in Factoring and Primality Testing: From Classical to Quantum Algorithms

This paper provides a comprehensive review and comparative performance analysis of classical and quantum algorithms for factoring and primality testing, concluding that while quantum methods like Shor's algorithm offer significant advantages for factoring, they do not provide comparable benefits for primality testing.

The Scaffold Jump Pattern: Progressive, Evidence-Gated Fading of Human Roles in Artificial Intelligence Systems

This paper introduces the "Scaffold Jump" design pattern, an operational framework that enables organizations to systematically and safely transition AI systems from full human oversight to autonomy by defining four distinct phases linked by evidence-gated transitions that ensure performance thresholds are met while maintaining accountability and ethical constraints.
