However, challenges such as data silos and fragmented knowledge hinder the effective utilization of this information. This study proposes a novel framework for intelligent Question-and-Answer (Q&A) systems based on Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to address these issues. The system efficiently acquires domain-specific knowledge by leveraging external databases, including Relational Databases (RDBs) and graph databases, without additional fine-tuning for Large Language Models (LLMs). Crucially, the framework integrates a Dynamic Knowledge Base Updating Mechanism (DKBUM) and a Weighted Context-Aware Similarity (WCAS) method to enhance retrieval accuracy and mitigate inherent limitations of LLMs, such as hallucinations and lack of specialization. Additionally, the proposed DKBUM dynamically adjusts knowledge weights within the database, ensuring that the most recent and relevant information is utilized, while WCAS refines the alignment between queries and knowledge items by enhanced context understanding. Experimental validation demonstrates that the system can generate timely, accurate, and context-sensitive responses, making it a robust solution for managing complex business logic in specialized industries.展开更多

Traditional question similarity calculation methods use "word" to compose question vector, that the semantic relations between words are ignored. OBQE takes the relation as an important part. The process of the new system is:① to build two-layered domain ontology referring to WordNet and domain corpse;② to expand question trunks into domain cases;③ to use domain case composed vector to calculate question similarity. The experimental result shows that the performance of question similarity calculation with OBQE is being improved.展开更多

The pathogenic mechanisms underlying tobaccorelated cancers are well characterized and efective programs have led to a decline in smoking and related cancers, but there is a global epidemic of obesity without a clear understanding of how obesity causes cancer. Obesity is heterogeneous, and approximately 25% of obese individuals remain healthy(metabolically healthy obese, MHO), so which fat deposition(subcutaneous versus visceral, adipose versus ectopic) is "malignant"? What is the mechanism of carcinogenesis? Is it by metabolic dysregulation or chronic inflammation? Through which chemokines/genes/signaling pathways does adipose tissue influence carcinogenesis? Can selective inhibition of these pathways uncouple obesity from cancers? Do all obesity related cancers(ORCs) share a molecular signature? Are there common(overlapping) genetic loci that make individuals susceptible to obesity, metabolic syndrome, and cancers? Can we identify precursor lesions of ORCs and will early intervention of high risk individuals alter the natural history? It appears unlikely that the obesity epidemic will be controlled anytime soon; answers to these questions will help to reduce the adverse efect of obesity on human condition.展开更多

Different types of questions can be designed to achieve different purposes in reading. While designing questions, teachers should take into consideration such points as the language used, manner of presentation and types of questions etc. Moreover, once questions have been designed, it’s essential for teachers to think about the techniques for the use of these questions. If appro- priately used, questions contribute greatly to students’ understanding of what they’ re reading by helping to explore the meaning that language conveys, in addition to developing proper reading skills. Therefore, teachers should be able to teach reading with well-designed questions so that the ultimate goal of understanding the text is likely to be achieved.展开更多
