Article Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to develop a retrained large language model (LLM) tailored to the needs of HN cancer patients treated with radiotherapy, with emphasis on symptom management and survivorship care.

Methods: A comprehensive external database was curated for training ChatGPT-4, integrating expert-identified consensus guidelines on supportive care for HN patients and correspondences from physicians and nurses within our institution's electronic medical records for 90 HN patients. The performance of our model was evaluated using 20 patient post-treatment inquiries that were then assessed by three Board certified radiation oncologists (RadOncs). The rating of the model was assessed on a scale of 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree) based on accuracy, clarity of response, completeness s, and relevance.

Results: The average scores for the 20 tested questions were 4.25 for accuracy, 4.35 for clarity, 4.22 for completeness, and 4.32 for relevance, on a 5-point scale. Overall, 91.67% (220 out of 240) of assessments received scores of 3 or higher, and 83.33% (200 out of 240) received scores of 4 or higher.

Conclusion: The custom-trained model demonstrates high accuracy in providing support to HN patients offering evidence-based information and guidance on their symptom management and survivorship care.

Background: When analyzing cells in culture, assessing cell morphology (shape), confluency (density), and growth patterns are necessary for understanding cell health. These parameters are generally obtained by a skilled biologist inspecting light microscope images, but this can become very laborious for high-throughput applications. One way to speed up this process is by automating cell segmentation.

Background: Although home births have been largely discontinued in contemporary China, traditional birth attendants (TBAs) historically played a pivotal role in enhancing maternal and child health, particularly in rural areas.

Aim: This study explored the transformation of TBAs in China from the 1950s to the 1970s, focusing on their gradual shift from traditional to modern midwifery practices. By drawing on oral histories from TBAs, the research seeks to enrich the historical understanding of midwifery development in China.

Machine learning climbs the Jacob's Ladder of optoelectronic properties.

The use of machine learning (ML) as a powerful tool for the prediction of optoelectronic properties is still hampered by the inadequate level of the calculated training datasets, which are almost exclusively obtained within the independent-particle approximation (IPA). Drawing on Perdew's Jacob's ladder analogy in density functional theory, we demonstrate how ML can ascend from the IPA to the random phase approximation (RPA), figuratively climbing the second rung. We show that as few as 300 RPA calculations suffice to fine-tune a graph attention network initially trained on 10,000 IPA calculations.

In recent years, indoor user identification via Wi-Fi signals has emerged as a vibrant research area in smart homes and the Internet of Things, thanks to its privacy preservation, immunity to lighting conditions, and ease of large-scale deployment. Conventional deep-learning classifiers, however, suffer from poor generalization and demand extensive pre-collected data for every new scenario. To overcome these limitations, we introduce SimID, a few-shot Wi-Fi user recognition framework based on identity-similarity learning rather than conventional classification.
