The In-Context Evolutionary Search (ICE-SEARCH) method combines large language models (LLMs) with evolutionary algorithms to improve feature selection tasks in Medical Predictive Analytics applications. This approach leverages the crossover and mutation capabilities of LLMs, allowing for more effective feature selection through comprehensive world knowledge and adaptability. ICE-SEARCH outperforms traditional methods in stroke, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes prediction tasks, achieving State-of-the-Art (SOTA) performance in some cases. The study highlights the importance of incorporating domain-specific insights, demonstrating ICE-SEARCH’s robustness, generalizability, and convergence.

This paper introduces a new method called In-Context Evolutionary Search (ICE-SEARCH). It combines big language models with special algorithms to find important features for medical predictions. This helps doctors make better decisions about patients. The study tested this method on three medical problems: stroke, heart disease, and diabetes. ICE-SEARCH did really well on all these tasks, which is great news.
