Enhanced Adverse Drug Event Extraction Using Prefix-Based Multi-Prompt Tuning in Transformer Models
Extracting mentions of adverse drug events and relationships between them is crucial for effective pharmacovigilance and drug safety surveillance. Recently, transformer-based models have significantly improved this task through fine-tuning. However, traditional fine-tuning of transformer models, especially those with many parameters, is resource-intensive, memory-inefficient, and often leaves a gap between pre-training and downstream task-specific objectives. Soft prompting is a lightweight approach that updates a trainable prompt to guide task-specific fine-tuning, showing comparable performance to traditional fine-tuning for large language models on simple tasks. However, its effectiveness on complex tasks like token-based sequence labeling requiring multiple predictions for a single input sequence remains underexplored, particularly in multi-task settings. In addition, using holistic prompts in multi-task learning settings may be biased to other subtasks. Additionally, some prompt tokens hurt the model prediction. This study proposes a prefix-based multi-prompt soft tuning method with attention-driven prompt token selection for tuning transformer models on multi-task dual sequence labelling for concept and relation extraction. We experimented with BERT and SciBERT models using frozen and unfrozen parameter strategies. Our approach achieved state-of-the-art performance on the n2c2 2018 and TAC 2017 datasets for adverse drug event extraction, with multi-prompt tuning in unfrozen models surpassing traditional fine-tuning. Moreover, it outperforms the largest clinical natural language processing model, GatorTron, on the n2c2 2018 dataset. This research highlights the potential of soft prompts in efficiently adapting large language models to complex downstream NLP tasks
Convolutional Neural Networks-Based For Predicting Aerodynamic Coefficient Of Airfoils At Ultra-Low Reynolds Number
Many applications, including airplane design, wind turbines, and heat transmission, use symmetric or asymmetric airfoils. Engineers employ these airfoil shapes to optimize performance and efficiency. Each airfoil has a unique set of aerodynamic coefficients that must be calculated to maximize the airfoil design. Engineers utilize numerous ways to calculate coefficients, such as lift and drag. One of the methods is the prediction method, which effectively reduces time and cost. This study's training dataset is obtained from particle-based numerical computation using the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM). Then, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) are used as a prediction method to get the aerodynamic coefficients of airfoils for lift and drag based on two different Reynolds numbers. In CNN, airfoil geometry representation is essential. The Signed Distance Function (SDF) was used to convert airfoil geometry into RGB pictures. On the other hand, the SDF method cannot explain different flow conditions; in this case, it is represented by the Reynolds number (Re). Therefore, we propose a Text-based Watermarking Method (TWM) to differentiate between Re = 500 and Re = 1000. Each airfoil representation was trained and tested to generate each prediction model using a modified LeNet-5. The computation results show that using CNN with TWM on SDF to define the Reynolds numbers could predict the lift and drag coefficients with varying angles of attack. Future research can focus on generalizations to different aerodynamic aspects and practical applications in complex scenarios

The lack of interest among students in studying art, particularly the traditional Indonesian art form of batik, poses a significant challenge for educational institutions. Despite its cultural significance, the education sector lacks effective strategies to introduce and enhance students' interest in batik within the art curriculum. Several consequences can arise if the education sector fails to implement strategic measures to address this issue promptly. This could lead to a gradual erosion of cultural heritage and a loss of artistic traditions passed down through generations, and students may miss out on valuable opportunities for self-expression and cultural exploration. This study addresses this issue by leveraging mixed reality and gamification in a batik creation application. This innovative approach not only enhances the pedagogy of art education but also aims to revive cultural interest. The study employs Software Testing and PIECES to evaluate user experiences, emphasizing user comfort and smooth interactions. By assessing the application with tools like Unity Profiler and Hololens 2 performance testing, the study ensures an optimal user experience, contributing to the broader goal of preserving Indonesia's cultural heritage through innovative and accessible educational solutions. The results fall within the range of 4.04 to 4.24, categorizing user satisfaction as "satisfied" and the application running at an optimal 60 frames per second (FPS). This implies that users responded positively to the application, indicating that implementing mixed reality technology in batik learning provides a satisfying experience

Solar power panels, or photovoltaic (PV), have recently grown rapidly as a renewable alternative energy source, especially since the increase in the basic electricity tariff. PV technology can be employed instead of the state electricity company to reduce the electricity used. Indonesia is one of the countries that have great potential in producing electricity from PV technology, considering that most of Indonesia's territory gets sunlight for most of the year and has a large land area. Considering the benefits of PV technology, it is necessary to carry out predictive monitoring and analysis of the energy generated by PV technology to maximize energy utilization in the future. The Internet of Things (IoT) and cloud computing system was developed in this research to monitor and collect data in real-time within 27 days and obtained 7831 data for each parameter that affects PV production. These data include data on the light intensity, temperature, and humidity at the location where the PV system is installed. The feature selection results using Pearson correlation revealed that the light intensity parameter significantly impacted the PV production system. This research used the Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) method to predict future PV production. By tuning hyperparameters using 3000 epochs, the resulting RMSE value was 171.5720. The results indicated a significant change in the RMSE value compared to 100 epochs of 422.5780.

Pneumonia, a prevalent inflammatory condition affecting lung tissue, poses a significant health threat across all age groups and remains a leading cause of infectious mortality among children worldwide. Early diagnosis is critical in preventing severe complications and potential fatality. Chest X-rays are a valuable diagnostic tool for pneumonia; however, their interpretation can be challenging due to unclear images, overlapping diagnoses, and various abnormalities. Consequently, expedient, and accurate analysis of medical images using computer-aided methods has become crucial. This research proposes a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model, specifically the ResNet-RS Model, to automate pneumonia identification. The Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization (CLAHE) technique enhances image contrast and highlights abnormalities in pneumonia images. Additionally, data augmentation techniques are applied to expand the image dataset while preserving the intrinsic characteristics of the original images. The proposed methodology is evaluated through three testing scenarios, employing chest X-ray images and pneumonia dataset. The third testing scenario, which incorporates the ResNet-RS model, CLAHE preprocessing, and data augmentation, achieves superior performance among these scenarios. The results show an accuracy of 92% and a training loss of 0.0526. Moreover, this approach effectively mitigates overfitting, a common challenge in deep learning models. By leveraging the power of the ResNet-RS model, along with CLAHE preprocessing and data augmentation techniques, this research demonstrates a promising methodology for accurately detecting pneumonia in chest X-ray images.
