文摘In recent years,Volunteered Geographic Information(VGI)has emerged as a crucial source of mapping data,contributed by users through crowdsourcing platforms such as OpenStreetMap.This paper presents a novel approach that Integrates Large Language Models(LLMs)into a fully automated mapping workflow,utilizing VGI data.The process leverages Prompt Engineering,which involves designing and optimizing input instructions to ensure the LLM produces desired mapping outputs.By constructing precise and detailed prompts,LLM agents are able to accurately interpret mapping requirements,and autonomously extract,analyze,and process VGI geospatial data.They dynamically interact with mapping tools to automate the entire mapping process—from data acquisition to map generation.This approach significantly streamlines the creation of high-quality mapping outputs,reducing the time and resources typically required for such tasks.Moreover,the system lowers the barrier for non-expert users,enabling them to generate accurate maps without extensive technical expertise.Through various case studies,we demonstrate the LLM application across different mapping scenarios,highlighting its potential to enhance the efficiency,accuracy,and accessibility of map production.The results suggest that LLM-powered mapping systems can not only optimize VGI data processing but also expand the usability of ubiquitous mapping across diverse fields,including urban planning and infrastructure development.

文摘Memristors have a synapse-like two-terminal structure and electrical properties,which are widely used in the construc-tion of artificial synapses.However,compared to inorganic materials,organic materials are rarely used for artificial spiking synapses due to their relatively poor memrisitve performance.Here,for the first time,we present an organic memristor based on an electropolymerized dopamine-based memristive layer.This polydopamine-based memristor demonstrates the improve-ments in key performance,including a low threshold voltage of 0.3 V,a thin thickness of 16 nm,and a high parasitic capaci-tance of about 1μF·mm^(-2).By leveraging these properties in combination with its stable threshold switching behavior,we con-struct a capacitor-free and low-power artificial spiking neuron capable of outputting the oscillation voltage,whose spiking fre-quency increases with the increase of current stimulation analogous to a biological neuron.The experimental results indicate that our artificial spiking neuron holds potential for applications in neuromorphic computing and systems.
