The task is challenging due to many-to-many alignment structure, answer sentences with no note support, and the semantic gap between clinical note language and answer paraphrases. We explore two approaches: few-shot chain-of-thought prompting with Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct and LoRA fine-tuning of a cross-encoder with combined InfoNCE and BCE loss. Our best system achieves a micro F1 of 67.93 on the test set."
