The multilingual neural machine translation (MNMT) enables arbitrary translations across multiple languages by training a model with limited parameters using parallel data only. However, the performance of such MNMT models still lags behind that large language (LLMs), limiting their practicality. In this work, we address limitation introducing registering to achieve new state-of-the-art decoder-only models. Specifically, insert set artificial tokens specifying target language, called...
Abstract Drug-induced cardiac toxicity is a critical concern in drug development, often leading to unreliable results and potential withdrawal due the lack of mature cardiomyocytes screening assays. This study aimed enhance cardiomyocyte maturation by combining structural conductive stimuli, specifically using Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) coated PDMS membrane mechanical stimulation (MS) system. A 10% tensile strain at frequency 1 Hz was applied via...
The heterogeneous nature of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks can be exploited to optimize a wide range applications. But this requires an accurate characterization peer heterogeneity, which is difficult due huge population and disparate properties individuals. To overcome barrier, we conduct thorough inspection heterogeneity in terms individual churn resource capacity. We make first attempt (i) experimentally reduce dynamics simple distributions with individual-specific parameters, (ii) provide...

To mitigate computational load, we propose parameter-sharing method, i.e., using conjugate parameters for complex numbers employed KGE...
Understanding representation transfer in multilingual neural machine translation can reveal the representational issue causing zero-shot deficiency. In this work, we introduce identity pair, a sentence translated into itself, to address lack of base measure investigations, as pair represents optimal state among any language transfers. our analysis, demonstrate that encoder transfers source subspace target instead language-agnostic state. Thus, deficiency arises because representations are...
Multilingual neural machine translation models support fine-tuning hundreds of languages simultaneously. However, on full parameters solely is inefficient potentially leading to negative interactions among languages. In this work, we demonstrate that the for a language occurs in its intrinsic language-specific subspace with tiny fraction entire parameters. Thus, propose LoRA isolate subspaces. Furthermore, architecture learning techniques and introduce gradual pruning schedule during...

The no-reflow phenomenon following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) complicates the clinical outcome of STEMI. This study aimed identify valuable predictor for phenomenon.
Existing multilingual neural machine translation (MNMT) approaches mainly focus on improving models with the encoder-decoder architecture to translate multiple languages. However, decoder-only has been explored less in MNMT due its underperformance when trained parallel data solely. In this work, we attribute issue of lack language transfer capability. Specifically, is insufficient encoding source tokens target features. We propose dividing decoding process into two stages so that are...
Summary Raft is a consensus algorithm that implements highly available replicas. As raft requires leader to drive the protocol execution, it usually employs round‐robin election mechanism select random among all nodes. However, when elected suffers from performance issues, will temporarily lose aliveness. To address this issue, we propose multi‐strategy allows nodes proactively trigger new round of they believe and replace with one in designated priority queue. The formal analysis...

Both silicon and germanium are very interesting materials for mid-infrared applications, particularly sensing, due to their low material losses at long wavelengths. Silicon is loss up 8 μm, 15 μm [1]. To fully exploit these wavelength transmission ranges of Si Ge, build Ge photonic circuits, cladding need have the same or larger than Ge. One solution remove a lossy substrate create suspended structures with air cladding. In case SOI, buried oxide can be removed by HF [2,3], Ge-on-Si...
