DataHacks at PerAnsSumm 2025: LoRA-Driven Prompt Engineering for Perspective Aware Span Identification and Summarization

Proceedings of the Second Workshop on Patient-Oriented Language Processing (CL4Health)

This paper presents the approach of the DataHacks team in the PerAnsSumm Shared Task at CL4Health 2025, which focuses on perspective-aware summarization of healthcare community question-answering (CQA) forums. Unlike traditional CQA summarization, which relies on the best-voted answer, this task captures diverse perspectives, including ‘cause,’ ‘suggestion,’ ‘experience,’ ‘question,’ and ‘information.’ The task is divided into two subtasks: (1) identifying and classifying perspective-specific spans, and (2) generating perspective-specific summaries. We addressed these tasks using Large Language Models (LLM), fine-tuning it with different low-rank adaptation (LoRA) configurations to balance performance and computational efficiency under resource constraints. In addition, we experimented with various prompt strategies and analyzed their impact on performance. Our approach achieved a combined average score of 0.42, demonstrating the effectiveness of fine-tuned LLMs with adaptive LoRA configurations for perspective-aware summarization.
