The large-scale language model, GPT-4-1106-preview, supports text of up to 128 k characters, which has enhanced the capability of processing vast quantities of text. This model can perform efficient and accurate text data mining without the need for retraining, aided by prompt engineering.
The research approach includes prompt engineering and text vectorization processing. In this study, prompt engineering is applied to assist ChatGPT in text mining. Subsequently, the mined results are vectorized and incorporated into a local knowledge base. After cleansing 306 medical papers, data extraction was performed using ChatGPT. Following a validation and filtering process, 241 medical case data entries were obtained, leading to the construction of a local medical knowledge base. Additionally, drawing upon the Langchain framework and utilizing the local knowledge base in conjunction with ChatGPT, we successfully developed a fast and reliable chatbot. This chatbot is capable of providing recommended diagnostic and treatment information for various diseases.
The performance of the designed ChatGPT model, which was enhanced by data from the local knowledge base, exceeded that of the original model by 7.90% on a set of medical questions.
ChatGPT, assisted by prompt engineering, demonstrates effective data mining capabilities for large-scale medical texts. In the future, we plan to incorporate a richer array of medical case data, expand the scale of the knowledge base, and enhance ChatGPT’s performance in the medical field.
