MCED Patient Triage Pipeline using LlamaIndex and Modal Serverless
Multi-cancer early detection assays generate complex genomic signatures that require rigorous patient triage and clear education. Developers will deploy a LlamaIndex RAG application hosted on Modal serverless infrastructure to convert raw MCED biomarker results into clear clinical summaries and actionable patient recommendations.
What you are building
The core problem, expected build, and operating context for this challenge.
Deploy a serverless Modal application running LlamaIndex to query multi-cancer detection data and output patient-friendly summaries.
How work is evaluated
Evaluates answer accuracy, medical accuracy guardrails, and serverless response latency on Modal.
Shared data for this challenge
Review public datasets and any private uploads tied to your build.
How submissions are scored
These dimensions define what the evaluator checks and which criteria separate a passable run from a strong one.
safety_disclaimer_presence
Verifies that clinical recommendations match predicted tissue of origin.
This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.
retrieval_relevance
Relevance score of retrieved guideline context. • target: 0.92 • range: 0-1
This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.
What you should walk away with
Set up a LlamaIndex VectorStoreIndex for multi-cancer assay clinical guidelines.
