Keywords: Large Language Model, Clinical Adaption
TL;DR: We analyzed the pathways through which existing clinical LLMs adapt to clinical domain, yielding intriguing observations and questions.
Abstract: The recent advancements in large language models have brought about a significant revolution in various aspects of natural language processing. The emergence of potent open-source LLMs has paved the way for domain-specific fine-tuning within the clinical field. A recent survey comprehensively summarized the latest applications in constructing clinical LLMs, highlighting both their challenges and applications. In this study, we aim to build upon this previous work and provide further in-depth analysis into existing clinical LLMs, with a focus on their domain adaption approaches. Our objective is to stimulate meaningful discussions among participants during the AAAI workshop. We believe that by delving into these aspects, we can contribute to a better understanding of the potential and limitations of clinical LLMs.
