🚀 Usage
Installation
pip install transformers torch
Quick Start
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
import torch
# Load model and tokenizer
model_name = "YangWu001/intervention_chinese"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
model_name,
torch_dtype=torch.float16,
device_map="auto"
)
# Example: Ask about intervention study design
prompt = "如何设计一个随机对照临床试验来评估新药的疗效?"
inputs = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)
# Generate response
outputs = model.generate(
**inputs,
max_length=512,
temperature=0.7,
top_p=0.9,
do_sample=True
)
response = tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True)
print(response)
Advanced Usage: Research Assistance
# Example 1: Literature review assistance
prompt = """请帮我总结最近5年关于靶向治疗在肺癌中应用的研究进展,
重点关注临床试验的结果和安全性数据。"""
# Example 2: Clinical trial design
prompt = """Design a Phase II clinical trial protocol for a novel
immunotherapy agent in treating metastatic melanoma. Include
inclusion/exclusion criteria, endpoints, and sample size calculation."""
# Example 3: Data interpretation
prompt = """我有一组临床试验数据显示p值为0.045,效应量为0.3,
样本量为120。这个结果在临床上是否有意义?请给出专业建议。"""
# Generate responses
inputs = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)
outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_length=1024, temperature=0.7)
response = tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True)

⚠️ Limitations and Ethical Considerations
Limitations
- 🚨 Not a substitute for professional medical advice: This model provides research assistance only, not clinical decisions
- 📚 Knowledge cutoff: Training data may not include the most recent research developments
- 🔍 Domain boundaries: Performance is optimized for biomedical interventions; may be less accurate for other domains
- 🌐 Language balance: While bilingual, primary training emphasis was on Chinese biomedical content
Ethical Guidelines
- ✅ Research Use Only: Intended for academic and research purposes
- ❌ Not for Clinical Decisions: Should not be used for patient diagnosis or treatment decisions
- 🔒 Privacy: Do not input personally identifiable patient information
- 📋 Verification Required: All generated content should be verified by qualified researchers
- 🎓 Educational Tool: Best used as a collaborative assistant, not an authority
