Conversations Risk Detection LLMs in Financial Agents via Multi-Stage Generative Rollout

With the rapid adoption of large language models (LLMs) in financial service scenarios, dialogue security detection under high regulatory risk presents significant challenges. Existing methods mainly rely on single-dimensional semantic judgments or fixed rules, making them inadequate for handling multi-turn semantic evolution and complex regulatory clauses; moreover, they lack models specifically designed for financial security detection. To address these issues, this paper proposes FinSec, a four-tier security detection framework for financial agent. FinSec enables structured, interpretable, and end-to-end identification of actual financial risks, incorporating suspicious behavior pattern analysis, delayed risk and adversarial inference, semantic security analysis, and integrated risk-based decision-making. Notably, FinSec significantly enhances the robustness of high-risk dialogue detection while maintaining model utility. Experimental results demonstrate FinSec's leading performance. In terms of overall detection capability, FinSec achieves an F1 score of 90.13%, improving upon baseline models by 6--14 percentage points; its ASR is reduced to 9.09%, markedly lowering the probability of unsafe outputs; and the AUPRC increases to 0.9189 -- an approximate 9.7% gain over general frameworks. Additionally, in balancing utility and safety, FinSec obtains a composite score of 0.9098, delivering robust and efficient protection for financial agent dialogues.

Oral Imaging for Malocclusion Issues Assessments: OMNI Dataset, Deep Learning Baselines and Benchmarking

Malocclusion is a major challenge in orthodontics, and its complex presentation and diverse clinical manifestations make accurate localization and diagnosis particularly important. Currently, one of the major shortcomings facing the field of dental image analysis is the lack of large-scale, accurately labeled datasets dedicated to malocclusion issues, which limits the development of automated diagnostics in the field of dentistry and leads to a lack of diagnostic accuracy and efficiency in clinical practice. Therefore, in this study, we propose the Oral and Maxillofacial Natural Images (OMNI) dataset, a novel and comprehensive dental image dataset aimed at advancing the study of analyzing dental images for issues of malocclusion. Specifically, the dataset contains 4166 multi-view images with 384 participants in data collection and annotated by professional dentists. In addition, we performed a comprehensive validation of the created OMNI dataset, including three CNN-based methods, two Transformer-based methods, and one GNN-based method, and conducted automated diagnostic experiments for malocclusion issues. The experimental results show that the OMNI dataset can facilitate the automated diagnosis research of malocclusion issues and provide a new benchmark for the research in this field. Our OMNI dataset and baseline code are publicly available at https://github.com/RoundFaceJ/OMNI.

Opinion Tree Parsing for Aspect-based Sentiment Analysis

Extracting sentiment elements using pre-trained generative models has recently led to large improvements in aspect-based sentiment analysis benchmarks. However, these models always need large-scale computing resources, and they also ignore explicit modeling of structure between sentiment elements. To address these challenges, we propose an opinion tree parsing model, aiming to parse all the sentiment elements from an opinion tree, which is much faster, and can explicitly reveal a more comprehensive and complete aspect-level sentiment structure. In particular, we first introduce a novel context-free opinion grammar to normalize the opinion tree structure. We then employ a neural chart-based opinion tree parser to fully explore the correlations among sentiment elements and parse them into an opinion tree structure. Extensive experiments show the superiority of our proposed model and the capacity of the opinion tree parser with the proposed context-free opinion grammar. More importantly, the results also prove that our model is much faster than previous models.

Risk-Adjusted Incidence Modeling on Hierarchical Survival Data with Recurrent Events

There is a constant need for many healthcare programs to timely address problems with infection prevention and control (IP&C). For example, pathogens can be transmitted among patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) in both the inpatient and outpatient settings within the healthcare system even with the existing recommended IP&C practices, and these pathogens are often associated with negative clinical outcomes. Because of limited and delayed data sharing, CF programs need a reliable method to track infection rates. There are three complex structures in CF registry data: recurrent infections, missing data, and multilevel correlation due to repeated measures within a patient and patient-to-patient transmissions. A step-by-step analysis pipeline was proposed to develop and validate a risk-adjusted model to help healthcare programs monitor the number of recurrent events while taking into account missing data and the hierarchies of repeated measures in right-censored data. We extended the mixed-effect Andersen-Gill model (the frailty model), adjusted for important risk factors, and provided confidence intervals for the predicted number of events where the variability of the prediction was estimated from three identified sources. The coverage of the estimated confidence intervals was used to evaluate model performance. Simulation results indicated that the coverage of our method was close to the desired confidence level. To demonstrate its clinical practicality, our pipeline was applied to monitor the infection incidence rate of two key CF pathogens using a U.S. registry. Results showed that years closer to the time of interest were better at predicting future incidence rates in the CF example.

Technical Background for "A Precision Medicine Approach to Develop and Internally Validate Optimal Exercise and Weight Loss Treatments for Overweight and Obese Adults with Knee Osteoarthritis"

We provide additional statistical background for the methodology developed in the clinical analysis of knee osteoarthritis in "A Precision Medicine Approach to Develop and Internally Validate Optimal Exercise and Weight Loss Treatments for Overweight and Obese Adults with Knee Osteoarthritis" (Jiang et al. 2020). Jiang et al. 2020 proposed a pipeline to learn optimal treatment rules with precision medicine models and compared them with zero-order models with a Z-test. The model performance was based on value functions, a scalar that predicts the future reward of each decision rule. The jackknife (i.e., leave-one-out cross validation) method was applied to estimate the value function and its variance of several outcomes in IDEA. IDEA is a randomized clinical trial studying three interventions (exercise (E), dietary weight loss (D), and D+E) on overweight and obese participants with knee osteoarthritis. In this report, we expand the discussion and justification with additional statistical background. We elaborate more on the background of precision medicine, the derivation of the jackknife estimator of value function and its estimated variance, the consistency property of jackknife estimator, as well as additional simulation results that reflect more of the performance of jackknife estimators. We recommend reading Jiang et al. 2020 for clinical application and interpretation of the optimal ITR of knee osteoarthritis as well as the overall understanding of the pipeline and recommend using this article to understand the underlying statistical derivation and methodology.
