|
PMR-Bench (Patient Message Ranking Benchmark) is a large-scale public dataset designed for studying medical triage in the context of asynchronous outpatient portal messages. The benchmark formulates triage as a pairwise inference problem, where models are tasked with determining which of two patient messages is more medically urgent. |
|
|
|
|
|
## Dataset Summary |
|
|
|
|
|
The dataset contains 1,569 unique messages and over 2,000 high-quality test pairs for pairwise medical urgency assessment. It emulates real-world medical triage scenarios by including: |
|
|
- **Unstructured patient-written messages**: Direct communication from patients. |
|
|
- **Electronic Health Record (EHR) data**: Real medical context provided alongside messages. |
|
|
- **Expert Guidance**: Automated data annotation strategies that provide in-domain guidance for training LLMs. |
|
|
|
|
|
The dataset was used to develop and evaluate models like **UrgentReward** and **UrgentSFT**, which outperform standard large language models in sorting physician inboxes by urgency. |
|
|
|
|
|
## Task Description |
|
|
|
|
|
The primary task involves a head-to-head tournament-style re-sort of a physician's inbox. Given a pair of messages, the model must predict which one requires more immediate medical attention. |
