The study investigates whether cross‑lingual clinical annotation can be treated as a constrained text‑generation task that preserves the original text while inserting entity tags. Using a workflow that embeds tags directly into immutable target‑language text and then validates them deterministically, the authors compare this approach to supervised candidate‑span projection and hybrid ML‑LLM refinement across six languages. Results show that direct LLM projection, particularly with GLM 5.2 and Gemma4:31B, achieves the highest strict F1 scores, surpassing previous state‑of‑the‑art by up to 0.15 and producing over 55,000 grounded mentions with accurate offsets.

This thesis explores how to select and adapt NLP models for global health literature when annotated data and computational resources are scarce. It compares skip‑gram word2vec models trained on increasingly large specialized corpora with BioWordVec for semantic tag discovery, finding that larger coverage does not always yield more useful domain associations. The study also evaluates convolutional spaCy models versus a RoBERTa transformer for named entity recognition, noting a trade‑off between higher F1 scores and longer inference time, and investigates MiniLM few‑shot versus BART‑MNLI zero‑shot classification for multi‑label topic classification, highlighting practical constraints of inference cost.
"whyItMatters":"The work provides empirical guidance on balancing model accuracy and resource demands for building knowledge systems in low‑resource global health settings."

Automated detection of errors in clinical documentation is a promising application of large language models (LLMs), yet decisions to deploy such models rest on benchmarks that evaluate each clinical note in isolation. Error-detection benchmarks are typically constructed by injecting errors into notes, such that each erroneous note has a natural counterpart.
