Talk Title: Medical Large Language Models: Challenges of Hallucinations, Bias, and Automated Evaluation

Abstract: Recent advancements in large language models have led to significant progress in various vertical domains, including healthcare. This talk will share our work on medical foundational models. Hallucinations are a major flaw in current generative AI, particularly in the accuracy-demanding field of healthcare. We propose a contrastive decoding method to alleviate hallucinations in medical large models during medical information extraction. Bias is another flaw in current AI technologies. We evaluate the biases of mainstream large foundational models in terms of gender, age, and disease severity using over 30,000 real medical records (corresponding to 193 diseases). We propose a method to mitigate model bias by improving prompt words, thereby enhancing diagnostic accuracy. Medical large models can be applied in various medical scenarios, including pre-diagnosis, diagnosis, and post-diagnosis. Previous evaluations of large models have focused on the diagnosis stage. We propose the MedJourney evaluation platform, which includes 12 datasets (5 of which are new datasets) to comprehensively evaluate the accuracy of general large models and medical large models in assisting the entire process of medical treatment. Evaluating open medical Q&A with models is challenging. Current evaluations are based on n-gram overlap rates or large model evaluation results, which have some discrepancies with expert subjective judgments. We propose the iMap data structure, which uses large models to extract key information from answers and then matches it with key information from standard answers to obtain evaluation results that better align with expert subjective judgments.
