Analyzing the relationships among these elements to control and manage task-oriented dialogue systems is a challenging task. However, previous work has primarily focused on the independent recognition of user intent and emotion, making it difficult to simultaneously track both aspects in the dialogue tracking module and to effectively utilize user emotions in subsequent dialogue strategies. We propose a Multi-Head Encoder Shared Model (MESM) that dynamically integrates features from emotion and intent encoders through a feature fusioner. Addressing the scarcity of datasets containing both emotion and intent labels, we designed a multi-dataset learning approach enabling the model to generate dialogue summaries encompassing both user intent and emotion. Experiments conducted on the MultiWoZ and MELD datasets demonstrate that our model effectively captures user intent and emotion, achieving extremely competitive results in dialogue state tracking tasks.展开更多

文摘As important geological data,a geological report contains rich expert and geological knowledge,but the challenge facing current research into geological knowledge extraction and mining is how to render accurate understanding of geological reports guided by domain knowledge.While generic named entity recognition models/tools can be utilized for the processing of geoscience reports/documents,their effectiveness is hampered by a dearth of domain-specific knowledge,which in turn leads to a pronounced decline in recognition accuracy.This study summarizes six types of typical geological entities,with reference to the ontological system of geological domains and builds a high quality corpus for the task of geological named entity recognition(GNER).In addition,Geo Wo BERT-adv BGP(Geological Word-base BERTadversarial training Bi-directional Long Short-Term Memory Global Pointer)is proposed to address the issues of ambiguity,diversity and nested entities for the geological entities.The model first uses the fine-tuned word granularitybased pre-training model Geo Wo BERT(Geological Word-base BERT)and combines the text features that are extracted using the Bi LSTM(Bi-directional Long Short-Term Memory),followed by an adversarial training algorithm to improve the robustness of the model and enhance its resistance to interference,the decoding finally being performed using a global association pointer algorithm.The experimental results show that the proposed model for the constructed dataset achieves high performance and is capable of mining the rich geological information.

文摘Large language models(LLMs),such as ChatGPT,have demonstrated impressive capabilities in various tasks and attracted increasing interest as a natural language interface across many domains.Recently,large vision-language models(VLMs)that learn rich vision–language correlation from image–text pairs,like BLIP-2 and GPT-4,have been intensively investigated.However,despite these developments,the application of LLMs and VLMs in image quality assessment(IQA),particularly in medical imaging,remains unexplored.This is valuable for objective performance evaluation and potential supplement or even replacement of radiologists’opinions.To this end,this study intro-duces IQAGPT,an innovative computed tomography(CT)IQA system that integrates image-quality captioning VLM with ChatGPT to generate quality scores and textual reports.First,a CT-IQA dataset comprising 1,000 CT slices with diverse quality levels is professionally annotated and compiled for training and evaluation.To better leverage the capabilities of LLMs,the annotated quality scores are converted into semantically rich text descriptions using a prompt template.Second,the image-quality captioning VLM is fine-tuned on the CT-IQA dataset to generate qual-ity descriptions.The captioning model fuses image and text features through cross-modal attention.Third,based on the quality descriptions,users verbally request ChatGPT to rate image-quality scores or produce radiological qual-ity reports.Results demonstrate the feasibility of assessing image quality using LLMs.The proposed IQAGPT outper-formed GPT-4 and CLIP-IQA,as well as multitask classification and regression models that solely rely on images.

文摘With the construction of new power systems,the power grid has become extremely large,with an increasing proportion of new energy and AC/DC hybrid connections.The dynamic characteristics and fault patterns of the power grid are complex;additionally,power grid control is difficult,operation risks are high,and the task of fault handling is arduous.Traditional power-grid fault handling relies primarily on human experience.The difference in and lack of knowledge reserve of control personnel restrict the accuracy and timeliness of fault handling.Therefore,this mode of operation is no longer suitable for the requirements of new systems.Based on the multi-source heterogeneous data of power grid dispatch,this paper proposes a joint entity–relationship extraction method for power-grid dispatch fault processing based on a pre-trained model,constructs a knowledge graph of power-grid dispatch fault processing and designs,and develops a fault-processing auxiliary decision-making system based on the knowledge graph.It was applied to study a provincial dispatch control center,and it effectively improved the accident processing ability and intelligent level of accident management and control of the power grid.
文摘Sentence classification is the process of categorizing a sentence based on the context of the sentence.Sentence categorization requires more semantic highlights than other tasks,such as dependence parsing,which requires more syntactic elements.Most existing strategies focus on the general semantics of a conversation without involving the context of the sentence,recognizing the progress and comparing impacts.An ensemble pre-trained language model was taken up here to classify the conversation sentences from the conversation corpus.The conversational sentences are classified into four categories:information,question,directive,and commission.These classification label sequences are for analyzing the conversation progress and predicting the pecking order of the conversation.Ensemble of Bidirectional Encoder for Representation of Transformer(BERT),Robustly Optimized BERT pretraining Approach(RoBERTa),Generative Pre-Trained Transformer(GPT),DistilBERT and Generalized Autoregressive Pretraining for Language Understanding(XLNet)models are trained on conversation corpus with hyperparameters.Hyperparameter tuning approach is carried out for better performance on sentence classification.This Ensemble of Pre-trained Language Models with a Hyperparameter Tuning(EPLM-HT)system is trained on an annotated conversation dataset.The proposed approach outperformed compared to the base BERT,GPT,DistilBERT and XLNet transformer models.The proposed ensemble model with the fine-tuned parameters achieved an F1_score of 0.88.

文摘To improve the accuracy and generalization of well logging curve reconstruction,this paper proposes an artificial intelligence large language model“Gaia”and conducts model evaluation experiments.By fine-tuning the pre-trained large language model,the Gaia significantly improved its ability in extracting sequential patterns and spatial features from well-log curves.Leveraging the adapter method for fine-tuning,this model required training only about 1/70 of its original parameters,greatly improving training efficiency.Comparative experiments,ablation experiments,and generalization experiments were designed and conducted using well-log data from 250 wells.In the comparative experiment,the Gaia model was benchmarked against cutting-edge small deep learning models and conventional large language models,demonstrating that the Gaia model reduced the mean absolute error(MAE)by at least 20%.In the ablation experiments,the synergistic effect of the Gaia model's multiple components was validated,with its MAE being at least 30%lower than that of single-component models.In the generalization experiments,the superior performance of the Gaia model in blind-well predictions was further confirmed.Compared to traditional models,the Gaia model is significantly superior in accuracy and generalization for logging curve reconstruction,fully showcasing the potential of large language models in the field of well-logging.This provides a new approach for future intelligent logging data processing.

文摘In task-oriented dialogue systems, intent, emotion, and actions are crucial elements of user activity. Analyzing the relationships among these elements to control and manage task-oriented dialogue systems is a challenging task. However, previous work has primarily focused on the independent recognition of user intent and emotion, making it difficult to simultaneously track both aspects in the dialogue tracking module and to effectively utilize user emotions in subsequent dialogue strategies. We propose a Multi-Head Encoder Shared Model (MESM) that dynamically integrates features from emotion and intent encoders through a feature fusioner. Addressing the scarcity of datasets containing both emotion and intent labels, we designed a multi-dataset learning approach enabling the model to generate dialogue summaries encompassing both user intent and emotion. Experiments conducted on the MultiWoZ and MELD datasets demonstrate that our model effectively captures user intent and emotion, achieving extremely competitive results in dialogue state tracking tasks.

文摘This article elucidates the concept of large model technology,summarizes the research status of large model technology both domestically and internationally,provides an overview of the application status of large models in vertical industries,outlines the challenges and issues confronted in applying large models in the oil and gas sector,and offers prospects for the application of large models in the oil and gas industry.The existing large models can be briefly divided into three categories:large language models,visual large models,and multimodal large models.The application of large models in the oil and gas industry is still in its infancy.Based on open-source large language models,some oil and gas enterprises have released large language model products using methods like fine-tuning and retrieval augmented generation.Scholars have attempted to develop scenario-specific models for oil and gas operations by using visual/multimodal foundation models.A few researchers have constructed pre-trained foundation models for seismic data processing and interpretation,as well as core analysis.The application of large models in the oil and gas industry faces challenges such as current data quantity and quality being difficult to support the training of large models,high research and development costs,and poor algorithm autonomy and control.The application of large models should be guided by the needs of oil and gas business,taking the application of large models as an opportunity to improve data lifecycle management,enhance data governance capabilities,promote the construction of computing power,strengthen the construction of“artificial intelligence+energy”composite teams,and boost the autonomy and control of large model technology.

文摘Spatial relation extraction is the process of identifying geographic entities from text and determining their corresponding spatial relations.Traditional spatial relation extraction mainly uses rule-based pattern matching,supervised learning-based or unsupervised learning-based methods.However,these methods suffer from poor time-sensitive,high labor cost and high dependence on large-scale data.With the development of pre-trained language models greatly alleviating the shortcomings of traditional methods,supervised learning methods incorporating pre-trained language models have become the mainstream relation extraction methods.Pipeline extraction and joint extraction,as the two most dominant ideas of relation extraction,both have obtained good performance on different datasets,and whether to share the contextual information of entities and relations is the main differences between the two ideas.In this paper,we compare the performance of two ideas oriented to spatial relation extraction based on Chinese corpus data in the field of geography and verify which method based on pre-trained language models is more suitable for Chinese spatial relation extraction.We fine-tuned the hyperparameters of the two models to optimize the extraction accuracy before the comparison experiments.The results of the comparison experiments show that pipeline extraction performs better than joint extraction of spatial relation extraction for Chinese text data with sentence granularity,because different tasks have different focus on contextual information,and it is difficult to take account into the needs of both tasks by sharing contextual information.In addition,we further compare the performance of the two models with the rule-based template approach in extracting topological,directional and distance relations,summarize the shortcomings of this experiment and provide an outlook for future work.

文摘Smart contracts,which automatically execute on decentralized platforms like Ethereum,require high security and low gas consumption.As a result,developers have a strong demand for semantic code search tools that utilize natural language queries to efficiently search for existing code snippets.However,existing code search models face a semantic gap between code and queries,which requires a large amount of training data.In this paper,we propose a fine-tuning approach to bridge the semantic gap in code search and improve the search accuracy.We collect 80723 different pairs of<comment,code snippet>from Etherscan.io and use these pairs to fine-tune,validate,and test the pre-trained CodeBERT model.Using the fine-tuned model,we develop a code search engine specifically for smart contracts.We evaluate the Recall@k and Mean Reciprocal Rank(MRR)of the fine-tuned CodeBERT model using different proportions of the finetuned data.It is encouraging that even a small amount of fine-tuned data can produce satisfactory results.In addition,we perform a comparative analysis between the fine-tuned CodeBERT model and the two state-of-the-art models.The experimental results show that the finetuned CodeBERT model has superior performance in terms of Recall@k and MRR.These findings highlight the effectiveness of our finetuning approach and its potential to significantly improve the code search accuracy.
