Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Symptom descriptions by ordinary people are often inaccurate or vague when seeking medical advice, which often leads to inaccurate preliminary clinical diagnoses. To address this issue, we propose a deep learning model named the knowledgeable diagnostic transformer (KDT) for the natural language processing (NLP)-based preliminary clinical diagnoses.
