This paper provides a comprehensive review and organization of research on medical dialog systems, which is crucial for advancing this field. The authors investigate 325 papers from computer science and natural language processing conferences and journals to identify categories, methods, and evaluation metrics used in medical dialogue systems. Recent advances in large language models have reshaped the foundation of medical dialog systems, but despite their potential, current systems still face challenges. The paper highlights the grand challenges facing medical dialog systems, particularly those related to large language models.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
This paper looks at how computers can talk with doctors and patients. Right now, there isn’t a clear way to understand all the research that has been done on this topic. So, the authors looked at 325 papers from important conferences and journals to see what categories, methods, and ways of measuring success are used in medical dialogue systems. They found that recent advancements in big language models have changed how we approach this field, but there are still many problems to solve.
