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

Analysis was done through the data collected from the teachers as well as from students. The study’s conclusions demonstrated that while there was no significant variation in the attitudes of teachers utilizing different ICT-based programs, there was a substantial difference in the students’ attitude toward learning with different ICT-based programs.
文摘Target-based and phenotype-based methods are the two main approaches for drug screening.Target-based drug screening focuses on specific targets CPA highly correlated with disease mechanisms,by detecting protein-ligand binding structure,dynamics and affinity.Currently,the four mainstream drug targets are G protein-coupled receptors(GPCRs),kinases,ion channels,and nuclear receptors,accounting for over 70%of effective drug targets,most of which are membrane proteins and enzymes.In recent years,various new drug targets have been continuously discovered,and the research focus has shifted from simple affinity analysis to high-throughput and high-content screening,as well as exploring drug-target interaction modes.These deepen reliance on the analytical techniques to have higher sensitivity,recognition specificity,and applicability to diversified target structures,which promoting the rapid development of novel screening methods.

文摘The cranial base synchondroses,comprised of opposite-facing bidirectional chondrocyte layers,drive anteroposterior cranial base growth.In humans,RUNX2 haploinsufficiency causes cleidocranial dysplasia associated with deficient midfacial growth.However,how RUNX2 regulates chondrocytes in the cranial base synchondroses remains unknown.To address this,we inactivated Runx2 in postnatal synchondrosis chondrocytes using a tamoxifen-inducible Fgfr3-creER(Fgfr3-Runx2cKO)mouse model.Fgfr3-Runx2cKO mice displayed skeletal dwarfism and reduced anteroposterior cranial base growth associated with premature synchondrosis ossification due to impaired chondrocyte proliferation,accelerated hypertrophy,apoptosis,and osteoclast-mediated cartilage resorption.Lineage tracing reveals that Runx2-deficient Fgfr3+cells failed to differentiate into osteoblasts.Notably,Runx2-deficient chondrocytes showed an elevated level of FGFR3 and its downstream signaling components,pERK1/2 and SOX9,suggesting that RUNX2 downregulates FGFR3 in the synchondrosis.This study unveils a new role of Runx2 in cranial base chondrocytes,identifying a possible RUNX2-FGFR3-MAPK-SOX9 signaling axis that may control cranial base growth.

文摘Biochar application to soil is commonly recognized to improve soil fertility and consequently biomass and food production sustainably.We re-examined the robustness of the underlying data and found that,of the 12000+ publications on“biochar and agriculture”used in meta-studies,only 109 Institute for Scientific Information(ISI)papers(or 0.9%)provide experimental data on the impacts on crop yield and/or biomass production.
文摘In the context of power generation companies, vast amounts of specialized data and expert knowledge have been accumulated. 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.

文摘Traditional rule-based IntrusionDetection Systems(IDS)are commonly employed owing to their simple design and ability to detect known threats.Nevertheless,as dynamic network traffic and a new degree of threats exist in IoT environments,these systems do not perform well and have elevated false positive rates—consequently decreasing detection accuracy.In this study,we try to overcome these restrictions by employing fuzzy logic and machine learning to develop an Enhanced Rule-Based Model(ERBM)to classify the packets better and identify intrusions.The ERBM developed for this approach improves data preprocessing and feature selections by utilizing fuzzy logic,where three membership functions are created to classify all the network traffic features as low,medium,or high to remain situationally aware of the environment.Such fuzzy logic sets produce adaptive detection rules by reducing data uncertainty.Also,for further classification,machine learning classifiers such as Decision Tree(DT),Random Forest(RF),and Neural Networks(NN)learn complex ways of attacks and make the detection process more precise.A thorough performance evaluation using different metrics,including accuracy,precision,recall,F1 Score,detection rate,and false-positive rate,verifies the supremacy of ERBM over classical IDS.Under extensive experiments,the ERBM enables a remarkable detection rate of 99%with considerably fewer false positives than the conventional models.Integrating the ability for uncertain reasoning with fuzzy logic and an adaptable component via machine learning solutions,the ERBM systemprovides a unique,scalable,data-driven approach to IoT intrusion detection.This research presents a major enhancement initiative in the context of rule-based IDS,introducing improvements in accuracy to evolving IoT threats.
