MedAI Dialog Corpus (MEDIC): Zero-Shot Classification of Doctor and AI Responses in Health Consultations
Zero-shot classification enables text to be classified into classes not seen during training. In this study, we examine the efficacy of zero-shot learning models in classifying healthcare consultation responses from Doctors and AI systems. The models evaluated include BART, BERT, XLM, XLM-R and DistilBERT. The models were tested on three different datasets based on a binary and multi-label analysis to identify the origins of text in health consultations without any prior corpus training. According to our findings, the zero-shot language models show a good understanding of language generally, but has limitations when trying to classify doctor and AI responses to healthcare consultations. This research provides a foundation for future research in the field of medical text classification by informing the development of more accurate methods of classifying text written by Doctors and AI systems in health consultations.
