Healthcare Speech Processing Clinical Language Model Evaluation

Open paper AskPDF arXiv

Large Language Models (LLMs) have brought huge improvements to Artificial Intelligence (AI), which can be applied to general-purpose tasks. However, their application to textual or spoken medical consultations is still an open research problem. This paper proposes MeDial-Speech, a novel speech dataset for training and evaluating Med-AIs that can carry out consultations with patients. It was collected in realistic environments from robot-patient and doctor-patient dialogues, contains 111+ hours of speech data (without data augmentation), and covers four health conditions: Lewy body dementia, heart failure, shoulder pain, and angina. In addition, we propose a dialogue benchmark via sentence selection (with 20 options) to evaluate three state-of-the-art LLMs: GPT-5 mini, DeepSeek-V3, and Claude Sonnet 4. Experimental results reveal that Claude Sonnet 4 is the best in sentence selection, with 71.1% accuracy using manual transcriptions and 74.7% using automatic transcriptions, and that all LLMs are highly overconfident in their probabilistic predictions, regardless of selecting correct or incorrect sentences in medical dialogues.
