ACI-BENCH

Introduction

This repository contains the data and source code for:

"ACI-BENCH: a Novel Ambient Clinical Intelligence Dataset for Benchmarking Automatic Visit Note Generation". Wen-wai Yim, Yujuan Fu, Asma Ben Abacha, Neal Snider, Thomas Lin, Meliha Yetisgen. Nature Scientific Data, 2023.

Paper: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41597-023-02487-3

Dataset: https://figshare.com/articles/dataset/aci-bench-corpus_zip/22494601?file=41498793

}

Data Splits (MEDIQA-CHAT & MEDIQA-SUM Challenges)

The ACI-BENCH collection consists of full doctor-patient conversations and associated clinical notes and includes the data splits from the MEDIQA-CHAT 2023 and MEDIQA-SUM 2023 challenges:

TRAIN: 67
VALID: 20
TEST1: 40 ( MEDIQA-CHAT TASK B test set )
TEST2: 40 ( MEDIQA-CHAT TASK C test set )
TEST3: 40 ( MEDIQA-SUM TASK C test set )

Speaker Tagging: Some ACI-BENCH subsets include swapped speaker tags (e.g., [patient], [doctor]) that originate from the Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) process. This reflects a known and common limitation of ASR-based transcripts, which we intentionally left uncorrected, as our goal was to provide a realistic dataset that captures such errors. Automated methods (including LLM-based approaches, such as Max's method) can be used to identify and correct these speaker-tagging issues.
