A Transferable Learned Temporal Prior for Transmission Reconstruction and Decision-Relevant Uncertainty in Real Outbreak Labels

Reconstructing who infected whom often relies on case timing and published transmission links. However, two important questions remain: can a temporal pattern learned from other diseases transfer to a new outbreak, and how reliable are the transmission links used as ground truth? We learned a temporal prior from eleven disease groups using logistic regression. The model was locked before any target-outbreak data were accessed and was then tested without refitting on 29 Andes virus (ANDV) parent-ranking tasks. The locked prior achieved a mean reciprocal rank (MRR) of 0.571, compared with 0.274 for the strongest fair source-trained temporal baseline (permutation p<0.001). Its Top-1 accuracy was 37.9%, compared with 13.8%. The MRR advantage remained significant unless 7-8 favorable task outcomes were reversed. We separately examined the reliability of published transmission links. Among 75 epidemiologically linked inter-host pairs from the 2022 New York City mpox outbreak, 54.67% were genomically unresolved or unsupported as direct transmission links (exact 95% CI: 42.75-66.21%). We also tested whether retaining uncertain transmission edges changed source prioritization. In ANDV and Guangdong Delta outbreak graphs, the top-5 priority sets changed, with Jaccard similarity ranging from 0.429 to 0.667. These results show that temporal information learned across diseases can provide a useful ranking signal without target-specific refitting. They also show that uncertainty in published transmission links can affect which source cases are prioritized for investigation.

Comparative Analysis Based on DeepSeek, ChatGPT, and Google Gemini: Features, Techniques, Performance, Future Prospects

Nowadays, DeepSeek, ChatGPT, and Google Gemini are the most trending and exciting Large Language Model (LLM) technologies for reasoning, multimodal capabilities, and general linguistic performance worldwide. DeepSeek employs a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) approach, activating only the parameters most relevant to the task at hand, which makes it especially effective for domain-specific work. On the other hand, ChatGPT relies on a dense transformer model enhanced through reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF), and then Google Gemini actually uses a multimodal transformer architecture that integrates text, code, and images into a single framework. However, by using those technologies, people can be able to mine their desired text, code, images, etc, in a cost-effective and domain-specific inference. People may choose those techniques based on the best performance. In this regard, we offer a comparative study based on the DeepSeek, ChatGPT, and Gemini techniques in this research. Initially, we focus on their methods and materials, appropriately including the data selection criteria. Then, we present state-of-the-art features of DeepSeek, ChatGPT, and Gemini based on their applications. Most importantly, we show the technological comparison among them and also cover the dataset analysis for various applications. Finally, we address extensive research areas and future potential guidance regarding LLM-based AI research for the community.

DistB-VNET: Distributed Cluster-based Blockchain Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks through SDN-NFV for Smart City

In the developing topic of smart cities, Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks (VANETs) are crucial for providing successful interaction between vehicles and infrastructure. This research proposes a distributed Blockchain-based Vehicular Ad-hoc Network (DistB-VNET) architecture that includes binary malicious traffic classification, Software Defined Networking (SDN), and Network Function Virtualization (NFV) to ensure safe, scalable, and reliable vehicular networks in smart cities. The suggested framework is the decentralized blockchain for safe data management and SDN-NFV for dynamic network management and resource efficiency and a noble isolation forest algorithm works as an IDS (Intrusion Detection System). Further, "DistB-VNET" offers a dual-layer blockchain system, where a distributed blockchain provides safe communication between vehicles, while a centralized blockchain in the cloud is in charge of data verification and storage. This improves security, scalability, and adaptability, ensuring better traffic management, data security, and privacy in VANETs. Furthermore, the unsupervised isolation forest model achieves a high accuracy of 99.23% for detecting malicious traffic. Additionally, reveals that our method greatly improves network performance, offering decreased latency, increased security, and reduced congestion, an effective alternative for existing smart city infrastructures.
