AI-Powered Virtual Medical Assistant for South Asian Healthcare Challenges: A Meta-LLaMA-3.1-8B-Instruct and LoRA-based Approach

The AI Virtual Med-Assistant is a 3D interactive healthcare platform designed for South Asian communities. It combines a fine-tuned large language model with multilingual speech recognition and text-to-speech to provide real-time, culturally adapted medical guidance. Built with React, Three.js, and WebSocket communication, the system simulates a virtual consultation room where users can interact naturally with an AI doctor. The project aims to address healthcare access gaps in underserved areas by delivering accurate medical information, appointment scheduling, and user-friendly interfaces in local languages.
