Embodied Cognition Guides Virtual-Real Interaction Design to Help Yicheng Flower Drum Intangible Cultural Heritage Dissemination

In order to make the non-heritage culture of Yicheng Flower Drum more relevant to the trend of the digital era and promote its dissemination and inheritance, the design and application of gesture recognition and virtual reality technologies guided by embodied cognition theory in the process of non-heritage culture dissemination is studied. At the same time, it will enhance the interaction between people and NRM culture, stimulate the audience's interest in understanding NRM and spreading NRM, and create awareness of preserving NRM culture. Using embodied cognition as a theoretical guide, expanding the unidirectional communication mode through human-computer interaction close to natural behavior and cooperating with multisensory information reception channels, so as to construct an embodied and immersive interactive atmosphere for the participants and enable them to naturally form the cognition and understanding of the traditional culture in the process of interaction. The dissemination of the non-heritage culture Yicheng Flower Drum can take the theory of embodied cognition as an entry point, and through the virtual and real scenes of Yicheng Flower Drum and the immersive experience, we can empower the interaction design of non-heritage culture dissemination of the virtual and real, and provide a new method for the research of digital design of non-heritage culture.

Sci-CoT: Leveraging Large Language Models for Enhanced Knowledge Distillation in Small Models for Scientific QA

Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown outstanding performance across wide range of downstream tasks. This competency is attributed to their substantial parameter size and pre-training on extensive corpus. Moreover, LLMs have exhibited enhanced reasoning capabilities in tackling complex reasoning tasks, owing to the utilization of a method named ``Chain-of-Thought (CoT) prompting''. This method is designed to generate intermediate reasoning steps that guide the inference of the final answer. However, it is essential to highlight that these advanced reasoning abilities appear to emerge in models with a minimum of 10 billion parameters, thereby limiting its efficacy in situations where computational resources are constrained. In this paper, we investigate the possibility of transferring the reasoning capabilities of LLMs to smaller models via knowledge distillation. Specifically, we propose Sci-CoT, a two-stage framework that separates the processes of generating rationales and inferring answers. This method enables a more efficient use of rationales during the answer inference stage, leading to improved performance on scientific question-answering tasks. Utilizing Sci-CoT, our 80-million parameter model is able to exceed the performance of BLOOM-176B in the ARC-Easy dataset under the few shot setting.
