Abstract

VACMI-LLM A Variety-Aware, Retrieval-Augmented Framework for Terminology Support in Chinese Medical Interpreting VACMI-LLM is a research framework for terminology support across Mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. It combines semantic extraction, variety-aware glossary retrieval, and constrained generation to present region-specific medical terms while keeping glossary-supported results distinct from provisional model-generated suggestions. How it works 1. Semantic extraction identifies and normalizes medical expressions.2. Variety-aware retrieval searches VACMI-KB for region-labelled terminology.3. Constrained generation presents supported terms and clearly labelled provisional suggestions. Repository layout - src contains the pipeline implementation and command-line interface. - data contains the frozen knowledge base and searchable index terms. - reproducibility contains the released study inputs, retained outputs, record-level scoring and adjudication tables, results, environment information, and offline verifier. - Questionnaire.md contains the original professional-evaluation instrument; private response exports and personally identifying information are not released. Run VACMI-LLM Python 3.13 is recommended. Install the required packages from the repository root: python -m pip install -r requirements.txt Set `DEEPSEEK_API_KEY` and `SILICONFLOW_API_KEY` in your local environment, then run: python src/00_run_vacmi_cli.py The runtime writes generated indexes and…
