Firstly, recognizing dyn...Dynamic sign language recognition holds significant importance, particularly with the application of deep learning to address its complexity. However, existing methods face several challenges. Firstly, recognizing dynamic sign language requires identifying keyframes that best represent the signs, and missing these keyframes reduces accuracy. Secondly, some methods do not focus enough on hand regions, which are small within the overall frame, leading to information loss. To address these challenges, we propose a novel Video Transformer Attention-based Network (VTAN) for dynamic sign language recognition. Our approach prioritizes informative frames and hand regions effectively. To tackle the first issue, we designed a keyframe extraction module enhanced by a convolutional autoencoder, which focuses on selecting information-rich frames and eliminating redundant ones from the video sequences. For the second issue, we developed a soft attention-based transformer module that emphasizes extracting features from hand regions, ensuring that the network pays more attention to hand information within sequences. This dual-focus approach improves effective dynamic sign language recognition by addressing the key challenges of identifying critical frames and emphasizing hand regions. Experimental results on two public benchmark datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our network, outperforming most of the typical methods in sign language recognition tasks.展开更多

文摘Classifying job offers into occupational categories is a fundamental task in human resource information systems,as it improves and streamlines indexing,search,and matching between openings and job seekers.Comprehensive occupational databases such as O∗NET or ESCO provide detailed taxonomies of interrelated positions that can be leveraged to align the textual content of postings with occupational categories,thereby facilitating standardization,cross-system interoperability,and access to metadata for each occupation(e.g.,tasks,knowledge,skills,and abilities).In this work,we explore the effectiveness of fine-tuning existing language models(LMs)to classify job offers with occupational descriptors from O∗NET.This enables a more precise assessment of candidate suitability by identifying the specific knowledge and skills required for each position,and helps automate recruitment processes by mitigating human bias and subjectivity in candidate selection.We evaluate three representative BERT-like models:BERT,RoBERTa,and DeBERTa.BERT serves as the baseline encoder-only architecture;RoBERTa incorporates advances in pretraining objectives and data scale;and DeBERTa introduces architectural improvements through disentangled attention mechanisms.The best performance was achieved with the DeBERTa model,although the other models also produced strong results,and no statistically significant differences were observed acrossmodels.We also find that these models typically reach optimal performance after only a few training epochs,and that training with smaller,balanced datasets is effective.Consequently,comparable results can be obtained with models that require fewer computational resources and less training time,facilitating deployment and practical use.

文摘Recommendation systems are key to boosting user engagement,satisfaction,and retention,particularly on media platforms where personalized content is vital.Sequential recommendation systems learn from user-item interactions to predict future items of interest.However,many current methods rely on unique user and item IDs,limiting their ability to represent users and items effectively,especially in zero-shot learning scenarios where training data is scarce.With the rapid development of Large Language Models(LLMs),researchers are exploring their potential to enhance recommendation systems.However,there is a semantic gap between the linguistic semantics of LLMs and the collaborative semantics of recommendation systems,where items are typically indexed by IDs.Moreover,most research focuses on item representations,neglecting personalized user modeling.To address these issues,we propose a sequential recommendation framework using LLMs,called CIT-Rec,a model that integrates Collaborative semantics for user representation and Image and Text information for item representation to enhance Recommendations.Specifically,by aligning intuitive image information with text containing semantic features,we can more accurately represent items,improving item representation quality.We focus not only on item representations but also on user representations.To more precisely capture users’personalized preferences,we use traditional sequential recommendation models to train on users’historical interaction data,effectively capturing behavioral patterns.Finally,by combining LLMs and traditional sequential recommendation models,we allow the LLM to understand linguistic semantics while capturing collaborative semantics.Extensive evaluations on real-world datasets show that our model outperforms baseline methods,effectively combining user interaction history with item visual and textual modalities to provide personalized recommendations.

文摘The outstanding growth in the applications of large language models(LLMs)demonstrates the significance of adaptive and efficient prompt engineering tactics.The existing methods may not be variable,vigorous and streamlined in different domains.The offered study introduces an immediate optimization outline,named PROMPTx-PE,that is going to yield a greater level of precision and strength when it comes to the assignments that are premised on LLM.The proposed systemfeatures a timely selection schemewhich is informed by reinforcement learning,a contextual layer and a dynamic weighting module which is regulated by Lyapunov-based stability guidelines.The PROMPTx-PE dynamically varies the exploration and exploitation of the prompt space,depending on real-time feedback and multi-objective reward development.Extensive testing on both benchmark(GLUE,SuperGLUE)and domain-specific data(Healthcare-QA and Industrial-NER)demonstrates a large best performance to be 89.4%and a strong robustness disconnect with under 3%computation expense.The results confirm the effectiveness,consistency,and scalability of PROMPTx-PE as a platform of adaptive prompt engineering based on recent uses of LLMs.

文摘Objective To develop a clinical decision and prescription generation system(CDPGS)specifically for diarrhea in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM),utilizing a specialized large language model(LLM),Qwen-TCM-Dia,to standardize diagnostic processes and prescription generation.Methods Two primary datasets were constructed:an evaluation benchmark and a fine-tuning dataset consisting of fundamental diarrhea knowledge,medical records,and chain-ofthought(CoT)reasoning datasets.After an initial evaluation of 16 open-source LLMs across inference time,accuracy,and output quality,Qwen2.5 was selected as the base model due to its superior overall performance.We then employed a two-stage low-rank adaptation(LoRA)fine-tuning strategy,integrating continued pre-training on domain-specific knowledge with instruction fine-tuning using CoT-enriched medical records.This approach was designed to embed the clinical logic(symptoms→pathogenesis→therapeutic principles→prescriptions)into the model’s reasoning capabilities.The resulting fine-tuned model,specialized for TCM diarrhea,was designated as Qwen-TCM-Dia.Model performance was evaluated for disease diagnosis and syndrome type differentiation using accuracy,precision,recall,and F1-score.Furthermore,the quality of the generated prescriptions was compared with that of established open-source TCM LLMs.Results Qwen-TCM-Dia achieved peak performance compared to both the base Qwen2.5 model and five other open-source TCM LLMs.It achieved 97.05%accuracy and 91.48%F1-score in disease diagnosis,and 74.54%accuracy and 74.21%F1-score in syndrome type differentiation.Compared with existing open-source TCM LLMs(BianCang,HuangDi,LingDan,TCMLLM-PR,and ZhongJing),Qwen-TCM-Dia exhibited higher fidelity in reconstructing the“symptoms→pathogenesis→therapeutic principles→prescriptions”logic chain.It provided complete prescriptions,whereas other models often omitted dosages or generated mismatched prescriptions.Conclusion By integrating continued pre-training,CoT reasoning,and a two-stage fine-tuning strategy,this study establishes a CDPGS for diarrhea in TCM.The results demonstrate the synergistic effect of strengthening domain representation through pre-training and activating logical reasoning via CoT.This research not only provides critical technical support for the standardized diagnosis and treatment of diarrhea but also offers a scalable paradigm for the digital inheritance of expert TCM experience and the intelligent transformation of TCM.

文摘The malicious dissemination of hate speech via compromised accounts,automated bot networks and malware-driven social media campaigns has become a growing cybersecurity concern.Automatically detecting such content in Spanish is challenging due to linguistic complexity and the scarcity of annotated resources.In this paper,we compare two predominant AI-based approaches for the forensic detection of malicious hate speech:(1)finetuning encoder-only models that have been trained in Spanish and(2)In-Context Learning techniques(Zero-and Few-Shot Learning)with large-scale language models.Our approach goes beyond binary classification,proposing a comprehensive,multidimensional evaluation that labels each text by:(1)type of speech,(2)recipient,(3)level of intensity(ordinal)and(4)targeted group(multi-label).Performance is evaluated using an annotated Spanish corpus,standard metrics such as precision,recall and F1-score and stability-oriented metrics to evaluate the stability of the transition from zero-shot to few-shot prompting(Zero-to-Few Shot Retention and Zero-to-Few Shot Gain)are applied.The results indicate that fine-tuned encoder-only models(notably MarIA and BETO variants)consistently deliver the strongest and most reliable performance:in our experiments their macro F1-scores lie roughly in the range of approximately 46%–66%depending on the task.Zero-shot approaches are much less stable and typically yield substantially lower performance(observed F1-scores range approximately 0%–39%),often producing invalid outputs in practice.Few-shot prompting(e.g.,Qwen 38B,Mistral 7B)generally improves stability and recall relative to pure zero-shot,bringing F1-scores into a moderate range of approximately 20%–51%but still falling short of fully fine-tuned models.These findings highlight the importance of supervised adaptation and discuss the potential of both paradigms as components in AI-powered cybersecurity and malware forensics systems designed to identify and mitigate coordinated online hate campaigns.
