Unlike conventional tokenizers, SKMT focuses on preserving the integrity of word roots in individual tokens, crucial for maintaining lexical meaning. The methodology involves segmenting and extracting word roots from morphological dictionaries and databases, followed by <i>corpus</i> preprocessing and training SKMT alongside a traditional BPE tokenizer. Comparative evaluation against existing tokenizers demonstrates SKMT's outstanding ability to maintain root integrity, achieving 99.7% root integrity compared to SlovakBERT (90.5%) and a pureBPE tokenizer (93.1%). Further validation involved fine-tuning models on a sentiment classification NLP task, where models trained with SKMT achieved an F1-score improvement of 3.5% over those trained with conventional BPE tokenization, followed by a focus on the Semantic Textual Similarity (STS) task. These findings suggest that training language models on the SKMT tokenizer significantly enhances model performance and quality.</p>","PeriodicalId":54224,"journal":{"name":"PeerJ Computer Science","volume":"10 ","pages":"e2465"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11622830/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142803383","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the task of devising such a strategy becomes challenging task the intricate and ever-changing situation of the stock market. In recent years, with the development of artificial intelligence (AI), some AI technologies have been proven to be successfully applied in stock price and asset management. For example, long short-term memory networks (LSTM) can be used for predicting stock price variation, reinforcement learning (RL) can be used for control stock trading, however, they are generally used separately and cannot achieve simultaneous prediction and trading. In this study, we propose a hybrid deep learning model to predict stock prices and control stock trading to manage assets. LSTM is responsible for predicting stock prices, while RL is responsible for stock trading based on the predicted price trends. Meanwhile, to reduce uncertainty in the stock market and maximize stock assets, the proposed LSTM model can predict the average directional index (ADX) to comprehend the stock trends in advance and we also propose several constraints to assist assets management, thereby reducing the risk and maximizing the stock assets. In our results, the hybrid model yields an average <i>R</i> ² value of 0.94 when predicting price variations. Moreover, employing the proposed approach, which integrates ADX and constraints, the hybrid model augments stock assets to 1.05 times than initial assets.</p>","PeriodicalId":54224,"journal":{"name":"PeerJ Computer Science","volume":"10 ","pages":"e2493"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11639306/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142830722","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, deep-learning methods contribute significantly to robots becoming intelligent cybernetic systems. The effective use of deep-learning mobile cyber-physical systems has enabled mobile robots to become more intelligent. This effective use of deep learning can also help mobile robots determine a safe path. The drivable pathfinding problem involves a mobile robot finding the path to a target in a challenging environment with obstacles. In this paper, a semantic-segmentation-based drivable path detection method is presented for use in the indoor navigation of mobile robots. The proposed method uses a perspective transformation strategy based on transforming high-accuracy segmented images into real-world space. This transformation enables the motion space to be divided into grids, based on the image perceived in a real-world space. A grid-based RRT* navigation strategy was developed that uses images divided into grids to enable the mobile robot to avoid obstacles and meet the optimal path requirements. Smoothing was performed to improve the path planning of the grid-based RRT* and avoid unnecessary turning angles of the mobile robot. Thus, the mobile robot could reach the target in an optimum manner in the drivable area determined by segmentation. Deeplabv3+ and ResNet50 backbone architecture with superior segmentation ability are proposed for accurate determination of drivable path. Gaussian filter was used to reduce the noise caused by segmentation. In addition, multi-otsu thresholding was used to improve the masked images in multiple classes. The segmentation model and backbone architecture were compared in terms of their performance using different methods. DeepLabv3+ and ResNet50 backbone architectures outperformed the other compared methods by 0.21%-4.18% on many metrics. In addition, a mobile robot design is presented to test the proposed drivable path determination method. This design validates the proposed method by using different scenarios in an indoor environment.</p>","PeriodicalId":54224,"journal":{"name":"PeerJ Computer Science","volume":"10 ","pages":"e2514"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11639217/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142830806","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To tackle this issue within the context of intelligent decision support systems, this study provides an insightful overview of current NPO monitoring technologies. Recognizing the complexities associated with handling large-scale NPO data and mitigating significant interference, a novel judicial domain NPO monitoring model is proposed, which centers around semantic feature analysis.

Empirical evaluations demonstrate the remarkable performance of the proposed model, achieving an accuracy rate of 85.9% and an F1 value of 87.1 on the test set, surpassing existing sentence semantic similarity models.

However, external factors such as light and noise often cause graphic design images to become distorted during acquisition. To enhance the definition of these images, this paper introduces a novel image enhancement model based on visual features. Initially, a histogram equalization (HE) algorithm is applied to enhance the graphic design images. Subsequently, image feature extraction is performed using a dual-flow network comprising convolutional neural network (CNN) and Transformer architectures. The CNN employs a residual dense block (RDB) to embed spatial local structure information with varying receptive fields. An improved attention mechanism module, attention feature fusion (AFF), is then introduced to integrate the image features extracted from the dual-flow network. Finally, through image perception quality guided adversarial learning, the model adjusts the initial enhanced image's color and recovers more details. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm model achieves enhancement effects exceeding 90% on two large image datasets, which represents a 5%-10% improvement over other models. Furthermore, the algorithm exhibits superior performance in terms of peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) and structural similarity index measure (SSIM) image quality evaluation metrics.
