CancerLLM: Specialized AI for Oncology
A 7B parameter LLM optimized for cancer diagnosis and phenotyping
CancerLLM is a specialized, efficient large language model designed specifically for cancer domain applications, striking a balance between performance and computational requirements.
Key innovations:
- Focused architecture with only 7B parameters, making it deployable in healthcare settings
- Trained on clinical notes and pathology reports covering 17 cancer types
- Mistral-style architecture optimized for cancer phenotyping and diagnosis
- Balances computational efficiency with specialized medical intelligence
Why it matters: This research addresses the critical need for domain-specific, efficient AI systems in oncology that can be realistically implemented in healthcare environments with limited computational resources while maintaining high performance for cancer-specific tasks.
