📖 Introduction
Large Language Models (LLMs) have introduced a new era of proficiency in comprehending complex healthcare and biomedical topics. However, there is a noticeable lack of models in languages other than English and models that can interpret multi-modal input, which is crucial for global healthcare accessibility. In response, this study introduces Qilin-Med-VL 1 , the first Chinese large vision-language model designed to integrate the analysis of textual and visual data. Qilin-Med-VL combines a pre-trained Vision Transformer (ViT) with a foundational LLM. It undergoes a thorough two-stage curriculum training process that includes feature alignment and instruction tuning. This method enhances the model's ability to generate medical captions and answer complex medical queries. We also release ChiMed-VL, a dataset consisting of more than 1M image-text pairs. This dataset has been carefully curated to enable detailed and comprehensive interpretation of medical data using various types of images.

📚 Datasets
Chinese Medicine - Vision Language Dataset (ChiMed-VL), the first large-scale Chinese Vision-Language dataset for general healthcare, designed to facilitate multistage training. This dataset has two subsets: vision-language feature alignment and instruction tuning.
ChiMed-VL-Alignment dataset
ChiMed-VL-Alignment consists of 580,014 image-text couplings, each pair falling into one of two categories: context information of an image or descriptions of an image. The context category contains 167M tokens, presenting a median text length of 435 (Q1: 211, Q3: 757). Conversely, descriptions, more concise and image-specific, contain inline descriptions and captions. They comprise 63M tokens, with median lengths settling at 59 (Q1: 45, Q3: 83).
ChiMed-VL-Instruction dataset
ChiMed-VL-Instruction comprises 469,441 question-answer pairs. Within this subset, the questions section contains 10M tokens with a median length of 20 (Q1: 16, Q3: 25), posing a concise inquiry reflective of medical queries. The answers consist of 13M tokens with a median length slightly longer at 22 (Q1: 12, Q3: 34), providing clear, direct, and informative responses.
