## Model Description |
|
### Architecture |
|
`medalpaca-lora-7b-16bit` is a large language model specifically fine-tuned for medical domain tasks. |
|
It is based on LLaMA (Large Language Model Meta AI) and contains 7 billion parameters. |
|
The primary goal of this model is to improve question-answering and medical dialogue tasks. |
|
It was trained using [LoRA](https://arxiv.org/abs/2106.09685). |
|
|
|
|
|
### Training Data |
|
The training data for this project was sourced from various resources. |
|
Firstly, we used Anki flashcards to automatically generate questions, |
|
from the front of the cards and anwers from the back of the card. |
|
Secondly, we generated medical question-answer pairs from [Wikidoc](https://www.wikidoc.org/index.php/Main_Page). |
|
We extracted paragraphs with relevant headings, and used Chat-GPT 3.5 |
|
to generate questions from the headings and using the corresponding paragraphs |
|
as answers. This dataset is still under development and we believe |
|
that approximately 70% of these question answer pairs are factual correct. |
|
Thirdly, we used StackExchange to extract question-answer pairs, taking the |
|
top-rated question from five categories: Academia, Bioinformatics, Biology, |
|
Fitness, and Health. Additionally, we used a dataset from [ChatDoctor](https://arxiv.org/abs/2303.14070) |
|
consisting of 200,000 question-answer pairs, available at https://github.com/Kent0n-Li/ChatDoctor. |

## Limitations |
|
The model may not perform effectively outside the scope of the medical domain. |
|
The training data primarily targets the knowledge level of medical students, |
|
which may result in limitations when addressing the needs of board-certified physicians. |
|
The model has not been tested in real-world applications, so its efficacy and accuracy are currently unknown. |
|
It should never be used as a substitute for a doctor's opinion and must be treated as a research tool only. |
