| Challenge: | Numerical data is pivotal for medical questions and answers, but tabular data is not fully integrated into LLMs. |
| Approach: | They examine the effectiveness of vector representations from last hidden states of LLMs for medical diagnostics and prognostics using electronic health record data. |
| Outcome: | The proposed representations outperform those using raw numerical EHR data in medical diagnostics and prognostics. |
Lacuna Reconstruction: Self-Supervised Pre-Training for Low-Resource Historical Document Transcription (2022.findings-naacl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Document transcription models are limited by extremely varied style and content across domains. |
| Approach: | They propose a self-supervised approach for learning rich visual representations for both handwritten and printed historical document transcription using a heterogeneous set of handwritten Islamicate manuscript images and early modern English printed documents. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model improves on a supervised model with as few as 30 line image transcriptions on two languages with a single line of image training. |
