Question

A pharmaceutical company wants an agent that classifies internal adverse-event reports using a highly specialized medical taxonomy unique to their regulatory filings. Testing shows that even with detailed prompts and retrieval-augmented grounding against their taxonomy documents, a general-purpose foundation model in Microsoft Foundry consistently misclassifies edge cases at a rate that fails compliance thresholds. The company has tens of thousands of accurately labeled historical reports. As the solutions architect, what should you recommend?

Accepted Answer

Fine-tune or build a custom model using the labeled historical reports to capture the specialized classification behavior

Answer

Add more few-shot examples to the prompt and expand the retrieval index to include additional taxonomy documents

Answer

Switch to a larger foundation model through the model router to improve reasoning on edge cases

Answer

Deploy a small language model at the edge to reduce latency on the classification task
