DeepSeek-R1 Greedy Decoding for Clinical Summaries

In Mozilla AI's Lumigator benchmark evaluating DeepSeek-R1 for zero-shot clinical summarization, researchers set temperature=0 (greedy search decoding) to make results reproducible, and highlighted self-hosting on an internal vLLM Kubernetes cluster to protect sensitive clinical data.

API Config (Self-Hosted vLLM): temperature=0 User Prompt: Perform a zero-shot clinical summarization of the following patient discharge note, capturing primary diagnosis, hospital course, and discharge medications: {{CLINICAL_NOTE}}
