Tool-wielding language model-based agent offers conversational exploration of clinical tabular data

Advancing evidence-based medicine requires integrating clinical expertise with data analysis. While clinicians contribute essential domain knowledge, applying modern data science methods often requires specialized training, creating a barrier to adoption. To bridge this gap, we developed ChatDA, an artificial intelligence agent enabling large language model-mediated conversational analysis of de-identified clinical tabular datasets. ChatDA empowers clinicians to extract meaningful insights efficiently and accurately, making data-driven clinical research more accessible and effective.
