文摘A complete examination of Large Language Models’strengths,problems,and applications is needed due to their rising use across disciplines.Current studies frequently focus on single-use situations and lack a comprehensive understanding of LLM architectural performance,strengths,and weaknesses.This gap precludes finding the appropriate models for task-specific applications and limits awareness of emerging LLM optimization and deployment strategies.In this research,50 studies on 25+LLMs,including GPT-3,GPT-4,Claude 3.5,DeepKet,and hybrid multimodal frameworks like ContextDET and GeoRSCLIP,are thoroughly reviewed.We propose LLM application taxonomy by grouping techniques by task focus—healthcare,chemistry,sentiment analysis,agent-based simulations,and multimodal integration.Advanced methods like parameter-efficient tuning(LoRA),quantumenhanced embeddings(DeepKet),retrieval-augmented generation(RAG),and safety-focused models(GalaxyGPT)are evaluated for dataset requirements,computational efficiency,and performance measures.Frameworks for ethical issues,data limited hallucinations,and KDGI-enhanced fine-tuning like Woodpecker’s post-remedy corrections are highlighted.The investigation’s scope,mad,and methods are described,but the primary results are not.The work reveals that domain-specialized fine-tuned LLMs employing RAG and quantum-enhanced embeddings performbetter for context-heavy applications.In medical text normalization,ChatGPT-4 outperforms previous models,while two multimodal frameworks,GeoRSCLIP,increase remote sensing.Parameter-efficient tuning technologies like LoRA have minimal computing cost and similar performance,demonstrating the necessity for adaptive models in multiple domains.To discover the optimum domain-specific models,explain domain-specific fine-tuning,and present quantum andmultimodal LLMs to address scalability and cross-domain issues.The framework helps academics and practitioners identify,adapt,and innovate LLMs for different purposes.This work advances the field of efficient,interpretable,and ethical LLM application research.

文摘Multimodal sentiment analysis aims to understand emotions from text,speech,and video data.However,current methods often overlook the dominant role of text and suffer from feature loss during integration.Given the varying importance of each modality across different contexts,a central and pressing challenge in multimodal sentiment analysis lies in maximizing the use of rich intra-modal features while minimizing information loss during the fusion process.In response to these critical limitations,we propose a novel framework that integrates spatial position encoding and fusion embedding modules to address these issues.In our model,text is treated as the core modality,while speech and video features are selectively incorporated through a unique position-aware fusion process.The spatial position encoding strategy preserves the internal structural information of speech and visual modalities,enabling the model to capture localized intra-modal dependencies that are often overlooked.This design enhances the richness and discriminative power of the fused representation,enabling more accurate and context-aware sentiment prediction.Finally,we conduct comprehensive evaluations on two widely recognized standard datasets in the field—CMU-MOSI and CMU-MOSEI to validate the performance of the proposed model.The experimental results demonstrate that our model exhibits good performance and effectiveness for sentiment analysis tasks.

文摘Named Entity Recognition(NER)is vital in natural language processing for the analysis of news texts,as it accurately identifies entities such as locations,persons,and organizations,which is crucial for applications like news summarization and event tracking.However,NER in the news domain faces challenges due to insufficient annotated data,complex entity structures,and strong context dependencies.To address these issues,we propose a new Chinesenamed entity recognition method that integrates transfer learning with word embeddings.Our approach leverages the ERNIE pre-trained model for transfer learning and obtaining general language representations and incorporates the Soft-lexicon word embedding technique to handle varied entity structures.This dual-strategy enhances the model’s understanding of context and boosts its ability to process complex texts.Experimental results show that our method achieves an F1 score of 94.72% on a news dataset,surpassing baseline methods by 3%–4%,thereby confirming its effectiveness for Chinese-named entity recognition in the news domain.

文摘Network virtualization is the development trend and inevitable requirement of hybrid wireless sensor networks(HWSNs).Low mapping efficiency and service interruption caused by mobility seriously affect the reliability of sensing tasks and ultimately affect the long-term revenue of the infrastructure providers.In response to these problems,this paper proposes an efficient virtual network embedding algorithm with a reliable service guarantee.Based on the topological attributes of nodes,a method for evaluating the physical network resource importance degree is proposed,and the nodes with rich resources are selected to improve embedding efficiency.Then,a method for evaluating the physical network reliability degree is proposed to predict the probability of mobile sensors providing uninterrupted services.The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm improves the acceptance rate of virtual sensor networks(VSN)embedding requests and the long-term revenue of the infrastructure providers.

文摘Constructing an in vitro vascularized liver tissue model that closely simulates the human liver is crucial for promoting cell proliferation,mimicking physiological heterogeneous structures,and recreating the cellular microenvironment.However,the layer-by-layer printing method is significantly constrained by the rheological properties of the bioink,making it challenging to form complex three-dimensional vascular structures in low-viscosity soft materials.To overcome this limitation,we developed a cross-linkable biphasic embedding medium by mixing low-viscosity biomaterials with gelatin microgel.This medium possesses yield stress and self-healing properties,facilitating efficient and continuous three-dimensional shaping of sacrificial ink within it.By adjusting the printing speed,we controlled the filament diameter,achieving a range from 250μm to 1000μm,and ensuring precise control over ink deposition locations and filament shapes.Using the in situ endothelialization method,we constructed complex vascular structures and ensured close adhesion between hepatocytes and endothelial cells.In vitro experiments demonstrated that the vascularized liver tissue model exhibited enhanced protein synthesis and metabolic function compared to mixed liver tissue.We also investigated the impact of varying vascular densities on liver tissue function.Transcriptome sequencing revealed that liver tissues with higher vascular density exhibited upregulated gene expression in metabolic and angiogenesis-related pathways.In summary,this method is adaptable to various materials,allowing the rheological properties of the supporting bath and the tissue's porosity to be modified using microgels,thus enabling precise regulation of the liver tissue microenvironment.Additionally,it facilitates the rapid construction of three-dimensional vascular structures within liver tissue.The resulting vascularized liver tissue model exhibits enhanced biological functionality,opening new opportunities for biomedical applications.

文摘In the domain of knowledge graph embedding,conventional approaches typically transform entities and relations into continuous vector spaces.However,parameter efficiency becomes increasingly crucial when dealing with large-scale knowledge graphs that contain vast numbers of entities and relations.In particular,resource-intensive embeddings often lead to increased computational costs,and may limit scalability and adaptability in practical environ-ments,such as in low-resource settings or real-world applications.This paper explores an approach to knowledge graph representation learning that leverages small,reserved entities and relation sets for parameter-efficient embedding.We introduce a hierarchical attention network designed to refine and maximize the representational quality of embeddings by selectively focusing on these reserved sets,thereby reducing model complexity.Empirical assessments validate that our model achieves high performance on the benchmark dataset with fewer parameters and smaller embedding dimensions.The ablation studies further highlight the impact and contribution of each component in the proposed hierarchical attention structure.
文摘The increasing fluency of advanced language models,such as GPT-3.5,GPT-4,and the recently introduced DeepSeek,challenges the ability to distinguish between human-authored and AI-generated academic writing.This situation is raising significant concerns regarding the integrity and authenticity of academic work.In light of the above,the current research evaluates the effectiveness of Bidirectional Long Short-TermMemory(BiLSTM)networks enhanced with pre-trained GloVe(Global Vectors for Word Representation)embeddings to detect AIgenerated scientific Abstracts drawn from the AI-GA(Artificial Intelligence Generated Abstracts)dataset.Two core BiLSTM variants were assessed:a single-layer approach and a dual-layer design,each tested under static or adaptive embeddings.The single-layer model achieved nearly 97%accuracy with trainable GloVe,occasionally surpassing the deeper model.Despite these gains,neither configuration fully matched the 98.7%benchmark set by an earlier LSTMWord2Vec pipeline.Some runs were over-fitted when embeddings were fine-tuned,whereas static embeddings offered a slightly lower yet stable accuracy of around 96%.This lingering gap reinforces a key ethical and procedural concern:relying solely on automated tools,such as Turnitin’s AI-detection features,to penalize individuals’risks and unjust outcomes.Misclassifications,whether legitimate work is misread as AI-generated or engineered text,evade detection,demonstrating that these classifiers should not stand as the sole arbiters of authenticity.Amore comprehensive approach is warranted,one which weaves model outputs into a systematic process supported by expert judgment and institutional guidelines designed to protect originality.

文摘BACKGROUND No optimal treatment has been established for metabolic dysfunction–associated fatty liver disease with phlegm-turbidity and blood-stasis syndrome(MAFLDPTBS),highlighting the need for more effective therapeutic approaches.AIM To elucidate the clinical effectiveness of acupoint catgut embedding therapy(ACET)for MAFLD-PTBS and preliminarily examine its association with biomarkers,particularly platelet-derived growth factor(PDGF).METHODS We retrospectively enrolled 80 patients with MAFLD-PTBS,divided into an ACET group(n=40)receiving ACET therapy and a control group(n=40)treated with conventional hepatoprotective and enzyme-lowering oral medications.Therapeutic outcomes were compared between the groups.Changes in body mass index(BMI),abdominal circumference(AC),body weight(BW),total cholesterol(TC),triglycerides(TG),alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),liver stiffness measurement(LSM),a four-item liver fibrosis panel,and serum concentration of PDGF,transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1),and cytokeratin 18(CK-18)were assessed before and after treatment.RESULTS Significant differences were observed both within group(pre-vs post-treatment)and between group post-intervention for all measured indicators,including BMI,AC,BW,TC,TG,ALT,AST,LSM,liver fibrosis indices,PDGF,TGF-β1,and CK-18(all P<0.05).CONCLUSION ACET exhibits promising clinical effectiveness for managing MAFLD-PTBS,with effects closely associated with serum concentrations of PDGF,TGF-β1,and CK-18.
文摘Objective:To explore the effects of acupoint catgut embedding combined with auricular point pressing with beans on symptom management self-efficacy and quality of life in patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis(NASH)of liver depression and spleen deficiency type.Methods:Sixty patients with NASH of liver depression and spleen deficiency type admitted to our hospital from January 2021 to December 2023 were selected and divided into an acupoint catgut embedding group(n=30)and a combined group(n=30)using the envelope lottery method.The acupoint catgut embedding group received acupoint catgut embedding intervention,while the combined group received auricular point pressing with beans on the basis of the acupoint catgut embedding group.The two groups were compared in terms of TCM syndrome scores,symptom management self-efficacy[Chronic Disease Self-Efficacy Scale(CDSES)],and quality of life[Chronic Liver Disease Questionnaire(CLDQ)].Results:After intervention,the combined group had lower TCM syndrome scores for both primary and secondary symptoms compared to the acupoint catgut embedding group(P<0.05).The combined group also had higher scores in all dimensions and total score of the CDSES compared to the acupoint catgut embedding group(P<0.05).Similarly,the combined group had higher scores in all dimensions and total score of the CLDQ compared to the acupoint catgut embedding group(P<0.05).Conclusion:Acupoint catgut embedding combined with auricular point pressing with beans can effectively improve TCM symptoms,enhance symptom management self-efficacy,and improve quality of life in patients with NASH of liver depression and spleen deficiency type.

文摘Embedded printing is a highly promising approach for creating complex structures within a yield-stress support bath.However,the accurate prediction and control of printability remain fundamental challenges due to the complex interactions between inks and support baths.Here,we present an artificial intelligence(AI)-driven framework that interprets and predicts embedded printability using rheological data.Using a standardized workflow,we extracted 21 rheological descriptors and established 12 indicators to evaluate structural continuity and geometric fidelity.Interpretable machine learning models revealed that direction-dependent defects are governed by the synergistic interplay among ink yield stress,support bath zero shear viscosity,flow behavior index,and time constant.To enable the prediction of printability in a generalizable manner,we further developed a cascaded neural network,which achieved mean relative prediction errors below 15%across all indicators.Experimental validation using three-dimensional(3 D)-printed constructs and micro-computed tomography(μCT)reconstructions confirmed a strong correlation between predicted and actual fidelity.This work establishes a physics-informed,data-driven paradigm for decoding and optimizing embedded printing,offering broad applicability and providing a robust tool for the rapid pairing of suitable printable ink-support bath combinations.
