Abstract It remains difficult to automate the creation and validation of Unified Modeling Language (UML) diagrams due to unstructured requirements, limited automated pipelines, and the lack of reliable evaluation methods. This study introduces a cohesive architecture that amalgamates requirement development, UML synthesis, and multimodal validation. First, LLaMA-3.2-1B-Instruct was utilized to generate user-focused requirements. Then, DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-32B applies its reasoning skills to transform these requirements into PlantUML code. Using this dual-LLM pipeline, we constructed a synthetic dataset of 11,997 UML diagrams spanning six major diagram families. Rendering analysis showed that 89.5% of the generated diagrams compile correctly, while… More >

Abstract Predicting the behavior of renewable energy systems requires models capable of generating accurate forecasts from limited historical data, a challenge that becomes especially pronounced when commissioning new facilities where operational records are scarce. This review aims to synthesize recent progress in data-efficient deep learning approaches for addressing such “cold-start” forecasting problems. It primarily covers three interrelated domains—solar photovoltaic (PV), wind power, and electrical load forecasting—where data scarcity and operational variability are most critical, while also including representative studies on hydropower and carbon emission prediction to provide a broader systems perspective. To this end, we examined… More >

Abstract As artificial Intelligence (AI) continues to expand exponentially, particularly with the emergence of generative pre-trained transformers (GPT) based on a transformer’s architecture, which has revolutionized data processing and enabled significant improvements in various applications. This document seeks to investigate the security vulnerabilities detection in the source code using a range of large language models (LLM). Our primary objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of Static Application Security Testing (SAST) by applying various techniques such as prompt persona, structure outputs and zero-shot. To the selection of the LLMs (CodeLlama 7B, DeepSeek coder 7B, Gemini 1.5 Flash,… More >

Abstract The rapid advancement of large language models (LLMs) has driven the pervasive adoption of AI-generated content (AIGC), while also raising concerns about misinformation, academic misconduct, biased or harmful content, and other risks. Detecting AI-generated text has thus become essential to safeguard the authenticity and reliability of digital information. This survey reviews recent progress in detection methods, categorizing approaches into passive and active categories based on their reliance on intrinsic textual features or embedded signals. Passive detection is further divided into surface linguistic feature-based and language model-based methods, whereas active detection encompasses watermarking-based and semantic retrieval-based More >

Abstract In the wireless energy transmission service composition optimization problem, a key challenge is accurately capturing users’ preferences for service criteria under complex influencing factors, and optimally selecting a composition solution under their budget constraints. Existing studies typically evaluate satisfaction solely based on energy transmission capacity, while overlooking critical factors such as price and trustworthiness of the provider, leading to a mismatch between optimization outcomes and user needs. To address this gap, we construct a user satisfaction evaluation model for multi-user and multi-provider scenarios, systematically incorporating service price, transmission capacity, and trustworthiness into the satisfaction assessment… More >

Abstract Recommendation systems are key to boosting user engagement, satisfaction, and retention, particularly on media platforms where personalized content is vital. Sequential recommendation systems learn from user-item interactions to predict future items of interest. However, many current methods rely on unique user and item IDs, limiting their ability to represent users and items effectively, especially in zero-shot learning scenarios where training data is scarce. With the rapid development of Large Language Models (LLMs), researchers are exploring their potential to enhance recommendation systems. However, there is a semantic gap between the linguistic semantics of LLMs and the… More >

Abstract Knowledge distillation has become a standard technique for compressing large language models into efficient student models, but existing methods often struggle to balance prediction accuracy with explanation quality. Recent approaches such as Distilling Step-by-Step (DSbS) introduce explanation supervision, yet they apply it in a uniform manner that may not fully exploit the different learning dynamics of prediction and explanation. In this work, we propose a task-structured curriculum learning (TSCL) framework that structures training into three sequential phases: (i) prediction-only, to establish stable feature representations; (ii) joint prediction–explanation, to align task outputs with rationale generation; and (iii)… More >

Abstract Game Quality Assurance (QA) currently relies heavily on manual testing, a process that is both costly and time-consuming. Traditional script- and log-based automation tools are limited in their ability to detect unpredictable visual bugs, especially those that are context-dependent or graphical in nature. As a result, many issues go unnoticed during manual QA, which reduces overall game quality, degrades the user experience, and creates inefficiencies throughout the development cycle. This study proposes two approaches to address these challenges. The first leverages a Large Language Model (LLM) to directly analyze gameplay videos, detect visual bugs, and… More >

Abstract Classifying job offers into occupational categories is a fundamental task in human resource information systems, as it improves and streamlines indexing, search, and matching between openings and job seekers. Comprehensive occupational databases such as NET or ESCO provide detailed taxonomies of interrelated positions that can be leveraged to align the textual content of postings with occupational categories, thereby facilitating standardization, cross-system interoperability, and access to metadata for each occupation (e.g., tasks, knowledge, skills, and abilities). In this work, we explore the effectiveness of fine-tuning existing language models (LMs) to classify job offers with occupational descriptors… More >

Abstract Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly applied in the field of code translation. However, existing evaluation methodologies suffer from two major limitations: (1) the high overlap between test data and pretraining corpora, which introduces significant bias in performance evaluation; and (2) mainstream metrics focus primarily on surface-level accuracy, failing to uncover the underlying factors that constrain model capabilities. To address these issues, this paper presents TCode (Translation-Oriented Code Evaluation benchmark)—a complexity-controllable, contamination-free benchmark dataset for code translation—alongside a dedicated static feature sensitivity evaluation framework. The dataset is carefully designed to control complexity along multiple dimensions—including syntactic… More >
