Multi-Turn Conversations and Prompts for Neurodegenerative

Data Characteristics

Protocol and SOP documents in the neurodegenerative disease field originate from pharmaceutical companies' R&D, clinical trial, manufacturing, quality control, and compliance departments. These documents typically have a low update frequency, with quarterly or annual revisions. However, urgent updates may occur during new drug approvals or regulatory changes. Documents are primarily in PDF, Word, or internal knowledge base pages. Content covers drug development processes, clinical protocols, adverse event handling, production batch management, and equipment operating procedures. Fields and units often include drug dosage (e.g., mg/kg), time periods (e.g., days, weeks), detection indicators (e.g., pg/mL), temperature (e.g., Celsius), and unique identifiers like batch numbers and experiment IDs.

Constraints Imposed by These Characteristics on Multi-Turn Conversations and Prompts

The low update frequency and high authority of neurodegenerative disease documents require multi-turn conversation systems to prioritize accuracy and timeliness during retrieval, avoiding outdated information. The complexity of document structures, especially nested sections and cross-references, makes locating specific information challenging in multi-turn conversations, necessitating enhanced context understanding. The specialized nature of fields and units demands prompt design that accurately captures quantitative information in user queries and presents it precisely in responses, preventing unit confusion or numerical errors. Furthermore, since protocols and SOPs often contain numerous technical terms and abbreviations, prompts need to guide the model to provide appropriate explanations or elaborations to improve engineer comprehension.

Configuration Settings

Configuration Item	Recommended Value	Rationale
`Chunk size`	`500-800 characters`	Balances semantic completeness and retrieval granularity, avoiding excessive irrelevant information in long paragraphs.
`Recall count`	`Top 5 entries`	Given the rigor of protocols and SOPs, this ensures core information coverage while preventing overload.
`Similarity threshold`	`0.82-0.88`	Ensures high relevance, filtering out vague or inaccurate matches, and reducing the risk of incorrect answers.
`maxContext`	`3000 Tokens`	Accommodates complex multi-turn conversation scenarios, providing sufficient context to handle technical terms and follow-up questions.
`Rerank result count`	`3 entries`	Further refines the accuracy of the top results using a reranking model based on the initial retrieval.
`API_TIMEOUT`	`60 seconds`	Addresses potential response delays caused by complex queries and large-scale knowledge base retrieval.

Common Pitfalls

Empty runtime data in conversation logs indicates that the output format of a module in the API call workflow does not match the downstream module's expectations, causing data transmission interruption.
A code block in the "Text Content Extraction" module's prompt reporting undefined often means that variables referenced within the code block were not correctly initialized or assigned in the execution environment.
When a user deletes a conversation, the log records also disappear. This typically occurs when the system design tightly couples conversations with log records, without providing independent log auditing or archiving mechanisms.

Verification Steps

Conduct multi-turn conversation tests to verify the system's ability to accurately ask and answer questions regarding key process points and technical terms in protocols and SOPs. Evaluate whether responses include correct quantitative information and units.
Examine conversation logs to confirm the completeness of input and output data for each interaction, especially ensuring the 运行数据 field contains expected results.
Randomly select document content and simulate user questions. Compare the model's answers with the original text, paying close attention to the accuracy of critical information such as numbers, dates, and batch numbers.
Perform stress tests to observe whether the system maintains stable response times under concurrent queries and if the API_TIMEOUT setting avoids frequent service interruptions.
