Spatiotemporal forecasting is a fundamental task in areas such as traffic flow prediction, environmental sensing, and urban planning. Recent advances have shown that decomposing temporal signals into multiple frequencies and modeling them jointly with spatial structures can significantly enhance for
Equipping Large Language Models (LLMs) with the ability to proactively ask clarifying questions is essential to mitigate ambiguity when faced with underspecified user queries in retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems. However, existing methods often neglect the rule-based reasoning structures…
Dynamic recommendation systems aim to provide personalized suggestions by modeling temporal user-item interactions across time-series behavioral data. Recent studies have leveraged pre-trained dynamic graph neural networks (GNNs) to learn user-item representations over temporal snapshot graphs. Howe
Improving large language models (LLMs) for electronic health record (EHR) reasoning is essential for enabling accurate and generalizable clinical predictions. While LLMs excel at medical text understanding, they underperform on EHR-based prediction tasks due to challenges in modeling temporally stru
Large Language Models (LLMs) excel in general language tasks, motivating their adaptation to specialized domains such as healthcare. Effective domain adaptation typically involves supervised fine-tuning (SFT) on carefully selected instruction-tuning data. Current data selection methods adopt a data-
Exploring the correlations between medical features is essential for extracting patient health patterns from electronic health records (EHR) data, and strengthening medical predictions and decision-making. To constrain the hypothesis space of pure data-driven deep learning in the context of limited…
Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have emerged as a fundamental tool for modeling complex graph structures across diverse applications. However, directly applying pretrained GNNs to varied downstream tasks without fine-tuning-based continual learning remains challenging, as this approach incurs high comp…
Refusal-Aware Instruction Tuning (RAIT) aims to enhance Large Language Models (LLMs) by improving their ability to refuse responses to questions beyond their knowledge, thereby reducing hallucinations and improving reliability. Effective RAIT must address two key challenges: firstly, effectively rej…
In this paper, we investigate the retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) based on Knowledge Graphs (KGs) to improve the accuracy and reliability of Large Language Models (LLMs). Recent approaches suffer from insufficient and repetitive knowledge retrieval, tedious and time-consuming query parsing, and…
By integrating external knowledge, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) has become an effective strategy for mitigating the hallucination problems that large language models (LLMs) encounter when dealing with knowledge-intensive tasks. However, in the process of integrating external non-parametric s…
Measuring parameter importance is crucial for understanding and optimizing large language models (LLMs). Existing work predominantly focuses on pruning or probing at neuron/feature levels without fully considering the cooperative behaviors of model parameters. In this paper, we introduce a novel app…
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) offers an effective solution to the issues faced by Large Language Models (LLMs) in hallucination generation and knowledge obsolescence by incorporating externally retrieved knowledge. However, existing methods lack effective control mechanisms for integrating in…
Spatio-Temporal Graph Neural Networks (STGNNs) have emerged as a powerful tool for modeling dynamic graph-structured data across diverse domains. However, they often fail to generalize in Spatio-Temporal Out-of-Distribution (STOOD) scenarios, where both temporal dynamics and spatial structures evolv…
In the pursuit of enhancing domain-specific Large Language Models (LLMs), Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) emerges as a promising solution to mitigate issues such as hallucinations, outdated knowledge, and limited expertise in highly specialized queries. However, existing approaches to RAG fall…
As a typical problem of Spatiotemporal Resource Management, Time Series Supplier Allocation (TSSA) poses a complex NP-hard challenge, aimed at refining future order dispatching strategies to satisfy the trade-off between demands and maximum supply. The Black-Litterman (BL) model, which comes from fi…
Multi-domain aspect-based sentiment analysis (ABSA) seeks to capture fine-grained sentiment across diverse domains. While existing research narrowly focuses on single-domain applications constrained by methodological limitations and data scarcity, the reality is that sentiment naturally traverses mu…
Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have become essential in interpreting relational data across various domains, yet, they often struggle to generalize to unseen graph data that differs markedly from training instances. In this paper, we introduce a novel framework called General Retrieval-Augmented Graph…
