New dataset and model boost medical dialogue for Indic languages

Researchers have developed IndicMedDialog, a new dataset designed to improve medical dialogue systems for Indic languages. This dataset includes parallel multi-turn conversations in English and nine Indic languages, created by augmenting existing medical dialogue data with LLM-generated synthetic consultations. The team also fine-tuned a small language model, IndicMedLM, using this dataset to enable personalized, multi-turn symptom elicitation with optional patient pre-context. AI

IMPACT Enhances accessibility of AI-powered healthcare tools for speakers of Indic languages.
