## Code Changes Summary

### Files Modified

- `backend/document_classifier.py` - AI-based classification added
- `backend/main.py` - Security integration and audit logging
- `backend/requirements.txt` - Production dependencies added

## Testing Recommendations

1. **Model Testing**:
   ```bash
   # Test model loading
   python -c "from backend.model_loader import get_model_loader; loader = get_model_loader(); print(loader.model_configs)"
   
   # Test inference
   python -c "from backend.model_loader import get_model_loader; loader = get_model_loader(); result = loader.run_inference('clinical_ner', 'Patient has diabetes and hypertension'); print(result)"
   ```

2. **Security Testing**:
   ```bash
   # Test authentication
   curl -X POST "http://localhost:7860/auth/login" \
     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     -d '{"email":"[email protected]","password":"test"}'
   
   # Check compliance status
   curl http://localhost:7860/compliance-status
   ```

3. **Integration Testing**:
   - Upload sample medical PDF
   - Verify audit logs created
   - Check model outputs
   - Validate secure file deletion

## Performance Considerations

- **Model Loading**: First request may be slow (model download + loading)
- **GPU Memory**: Concurrent models may require 8-16GB VRAM
- **Caching**: Models cached after first load for faster subsequent requests
- **Optimization**: Use quantization for production to reduce memory

## Security Notes

⚠️ **Current Security Status**: DEMO MODE
- Authentication available but not enforced
- Anonymous access logged but allowed
- Encryption framework ready but not active
- Audit logging active and comprehensive

✅ **Ready for Production**: Add environment variables and enable strict mode
- Set `ENFORCE_AUTH=true` in environment
- Configure encryption keys
- Enable HTTPS/TLS
- Set up production database

## Next Steps

1. **Immediate**: Test on Hugging Face Spaces with GPU
2. **Short-term**: Enable encryption library, persist audit logs
3. **Medium-term**: Add user database, implement RBAC
4. **Long-term**: Clinical validation, bias monitoring, FHIR export

## Deployment

The enhanced platform is ready for redeployment to Hugging Face Spaces:
```bash
cd /workspace/medical-ai-platform
python deploy_to_hf.py
```

All improvements are backward-compatible and enhance the existing functionality without breaking changes.
