PLACID：面向临床缩略语推理与消歧的隐私保护大语言模型
PLACID: Privacy-preserving Large language models for Acronym Clinical Inference and Disambiguation
AI 导读
研究提出 PLACID 级联流水线，用完全本地部署的 2B-10B 小参数模型实现临床缩略语消歧，避免将受保护健康信息传至外部服务器。通用指令模型检测缩略语准确率约 0.988，但扩展能力仅约 0.655；接入领域医学生物模型后扩展准确率提升至约 0.81。

Abstract:Large Language Models (LLMs) offer transformative solutions across many domains, but healthcare integration is hindered by strict data privacy constraints. Clinical narratives are dense with ambiguous acronyms, misinterpretation these abbreviations can precipitate severe outcomes like life-threatening medication errors. While cloud-dependent LLMs excel at Acronym Disambiguation, transmitting Protected Health Information to external servers violates privacy frameworks. To bridge this gap, this study pioneers the evaluation of small-parameter models deployed entirely on-device to ensure privacy preservation. We introduce a privacy-preserving cascaded pipeline leveraging general-purpose local models to detect clinical acronyms, routing them to domain-specific biomedical models for context-relevant expansions. Results reveal that while general instruction-following models achieve high detection accuracy (~0.988), their expansion capabilities plummet (~0.655). Our cascaded approach utilizes domain-specific medical models to increase expansion accuracy to (~0.81). This novel work demonstrates that privacy-preserving, on-device (2B-10B) models deliver high-fidelity clinical acronym disambiguation support.
