This addresses a time-consuming issue for users seeking medical information online, but it is incremental as it applies existing deep learning methods to a specific domain.

The research tackled the problem of finding satisfactory answers to medical questions online by automating answer generation, training an end-to-end RNN encoder-decoder model on data from sources like WebMD and HealthTap.

Artificial intelligence can now provide more solutions for different problems, especially in the medical field. One of those problems the lack of answers to any given medical/health-related question. The Internet is full of forums that allow people to ask some specific questions and get great answers for them. Nevertheless, browsing these questions in order to locate one similar to your own, also finding a satisfactory answer is a difficult and time-consuming task. This research will introduce a solution to this problem by automating the process of generating qualified answers to these questions and creating a kind of digital doctor. Furthermore, this research will train an end-to-end model using the framework of RNN and the encoder-decoder to generate sensible and useful answers to a small set of medical/health issues. The proposed model was trained and evaluated using data from various online services, such as WebMD, HealthTap, eHealthForums, and iCliniq.
