From ML Predictions to Informed Diagnostic Assistance Using the Toulmin Model of Argumentation

Short summary

This paper applies the Toulmin model of argumentation to decompose ML-based retinal diagnoses into structured components: claim, grounds, warrant, qualifier, and rebuttal. A MedGemma agent provides medical-knowledge warrants, while MedSigLip computes image-similarity-based rebuttals. The framework presents all components to human experts for more informed and critical assessment of AI-generated diagnoses.

  • Decomposes ML diagnosis into Toulmin argumentation components (claim, grounds, warrant, qualifier, rebuttal)
  • MedGemma agent supplies medical-knowledge warrants; MedSigLip generates rebuttals via image similarity
  • Targets interpretable, human-reviewable AI diagnostic assistance for retinal imaging

Generated with AI, which can make mistakes.
