DocTalkBN: A Novel Dataset of Expert Telemedicine Conversations in Bengali

DocTalkBN is a large-scale multimodal dataset of authentic expert telemedicine conversations in Bengali, comprising 557.63 hours of paired audio and text, 1,515 multi-turn patient calls, and 10,274 host–doctor question–answer exchanges across 26 medical specialties. The dataset contains 1.7 million tokens and preserves the spontaneity and contextual richness of real medical interactions in a low-resource language. Three downstream tasks—medical triage classification, advice safety evaluation, and medical named entity recognition—are constructed to benchmark large language models and encoder-based baselines, demonstrating DocTalkBN’s practical usefulness for clinically grounded reasoning.

MedDeID enables locally governed clinical-text de-identification from real or synthetic training data

MedDeID is an on‑premises framework that combines in‑house annotation, synthetic‑note generation, model training, inference, pseudonymisation and evaluation to de‑identify clinical text. On a Dutch hospital benchmark, a hospital‑trained transformer detected 98.9 % of identifying text while redacting only 0.24 % of non‑identifier text; a synthetic‑only model achieved 96.1 %. In primary‑care notes, the synthetic‑trained model outperformed the hospital‑trained model in recall and robustness to identifier‑format changes, and an English version trained without real text reached 99.7 % and 98.9 % detection on synthetic benchmarks.

Privacy-Preserving Generation of Clinical Narratives from Medical Terminologies

The paper introduces Term2Note, a method for generating full-length clinical notes under differential privacy constraints. It separates content and form, conditioning note sections on medical terms and applying distinct DP protections to terms and notes, followed by a DP quality maximizer. Experiments show that the synthetic notes closely match real clinical notes in statistical properties, and models trained on them perform comparably to those trained on real data, outperforming existing DP text generation baselines.
