## MMedFD: A Real-World Healthcare Benchmark for Multi-Turn Full-Duplex Automatic Speech Recognition

### 📄 **Preprint**: [MMedFD](https://arxiv.org/abs/2509.19817) — For the complete benchmark construction pipeline, evaluation methodology, dataset specifications, and additional implementation details, please refer to the preprint.


### ⚠️Data Availability
Full access requires internal approval and a research-only data use agreement. 
🚫 Non-Commercial Use
This dataset is provided **for non-commercial research and education only**. **Commercial use is prohibited.**  
Researchers who wish to request full access may contact yangxiao.wxy@antgroup.com with a brief description of their affiliation, project goals, intended use, and data protection plan. Only de-identified data may be shared, and redistribution is prohibited.

## 🗂️ Data Release & Access

- **Public release (partial subset)**: We release **only a portion of the data used for this benchmark’s training and evaluation**. This Lite subset **differs in amount and coverage** from our internal full dataset and is **not** a drop-in replacement for the complete data.
- **What’s included**: A **reduced selection** of dialogues/audio/text sufficient to reproduce the reported benchmark protocol at a smaller scale.
- **Not included**: Additional sessions, higher-fidelity artifacts, and full validation/test coverage remain internal.

## 🔒 Privacy, Safety & Redaction

- **Privacy-preserving audio**: To protect speaker privacy, all audio has been **re-synthesized via TTS** (privacy-preserving re-encoding). This process **obfuscates speaker identity and acoustic biomarkers** while preserving task-relevant linguistic content for modeling.
- **Real-world dialogs**: The **dialogue content originates from real-world collections**. However, **sensitive spans** (e.g., direct identifiers, highly specific personal details) are **automatically redacted by an LLM-based filter** before release.
- **Residual risk**: Despite these protections, **re-identification attempts are prohibited**. Please do not try to recover original identities or link samples to outside sources.
