Hybrid Cooperative Co-Evolution Algorithm for Deadlock-prone Distributed Assembly Flowshop Scheduling with Limited buffers Using Petri nets

The distributed assembly flowshop scheduling problem (DAFSP) can be applied to immense manufacturing environments. In DAFSP, jobs are first processed in distributed flowshops, and then assembled into final products by an assembly machine, which usually has limited buffers in practical application. This limited capacity can lead to deadlocks, halting job completion and blocking the entire manufacturing process. However, existing scheduling methods fail to address these deadlocks in DAFSP effectively. As such, we develop a hybrid cooperative co-evolution (HCCE) algorithm for solving the deadlock-prone DAFSP by minimizing the makespan. For the first time, we use Petri nets to analyze the deadlocks in DAFSP and propose a Petri net-based deadlock amending method (IDAM), which is further integrated into HCCE to ensure the feasibility (i.e., deadlock-freeness) of solutions. Importantly, HCCE contains an elite archive (EAR) and two subpopulations. It uses the problem-specific operators for heuristic initialization and global-search. To enhance the quality and diversity of solutions, an information transfer mechanism (ITM) is developed among subpopulation and EAR, and four local-search operators are performed sequentially on each individual in EAR. Finally, comprehensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed HCCE algorithm.

A Role-specific Guided Large Language Model for Ophthalmic Consultation Based on Stylistic Differentiation

Ophthalmology consultations are crucial for diagnosing, treating, and preventing eye diseases. However, the growing demand for consultations exceeds the availability of ophthalmologists. By leveraging large pre-trained language models, we can design effective dialogues for specific scenarios, aiding in consultations. Traditional fine-tuning strategies for question-answering tasks are impractical due to increasing model size and often ignoring patient-doctor role function during consultations. In this paper, we propose EyeDoctor, an ophthalmic medical questioning large language model that enhances accuracy through doctor-patient role perception guided and an augmented knowledge base with external disease information. Experimental results show EyeDoctor achieves higher question-answering precision in ophthalmology consultations. Notably, EyeDoctor demonstrated a 7.25% improvement in Rouge-1 scores and a 10.16% improvement in F1 scores on multi-round datasets compared to second best model ChatGPT, highlighting the importance of doctor-patient role differentiation and dynamic knowledge base expansion for intelligent medical consultations. EyeDoc also serves as a free available web based service and souce code is available at https://github.com/sperfu/EyeDoc.

Progressive enhancement and restoration for mural images under low-light and defected conditions based on multi-receptive field strategy

Ancient murals are valuable cultural heritage with great archaeological value. They provide insights into ancient religions, ceremonies, folklore, among other things through their content. However, due to long-term oxidation and inadequate protection, ancient murals have suffered continuous damage, including peeling and mold etc. Additionally, since ancient murals were typically painted indoors, the light intensity in images captured by digital devices is often low. The poor visibility hampers the further restoration of damaged areas. To address the escalating damage to ancient murals and facilitate batch restoration at archaeological sites, we propose a two-stage restoration model with automatic defect area detection strategy which called MER(Mural Enhancement and Restoration net) for ancient murals that are damaged and have been captured in low light. Our two-stage model not only enhances the visual quality of restored images but also achieves commendable results in relevant metric evaluations compared with other competitors. Furthermore, we have launched a website dedicated to the restoration of ancient mural paintings, utilizing the proposed model. Code is available at https://gitee.com/bbfan2024/MER.git.
