PragyaDoc framework tackles medical document access in India

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed PragyaDoc, a document intelligence framework designed to improve medical document understanding in low-resource settings, particularly in India. The framework addresses the language barrier where most medical information is in English, excluding rural populations and ASHA workers. PragyaDoc employs a four-layer pipeline, including OCR, geometric-lexical fusion, domain structuring, and a dual-LLM for medical reasoning and localization, aiming to make critical health information accessible across India's diverse languages.
