Comprehensive Manuscript Assessment with Text Summarization Using 69707 articles

Rapid and efficient assessment of the future impact of research articles is a significant concern for both authors and reviewers. The most common standard for measuring the impact of academic papers is the number of citations. In recent years, numerous efforts have been undertaken to predict citation counts within various citation windows. However, most of these studies focus solely on a specific academic field or require early citation counts for prediction, rendering them impractical for the early-stage evaluation of papers. In this work, we harness Scopus to curate a significantly comprehensive and large-scale dataset of information from 69707 scientific articles sourced from 99 journals spanning multiple disciplines. We propose a deep learning methodology for the impact-based classification tasks, which leverages semantic features extracted from the manuscripts and paper metadata. To summarize the semantic features, such as titles and abstracts, we employ a Transformer-based language model to encode semantic features and design a text fusion layer to capture shared information between titles and abstracts. We specifically focus on the following impact-based prediction tasks using information of scientific manuscripts in pre-publication stage: (1) The impact of journals in which the manuscripts will be published. (2) The future impact of manuscripts themselves. Extensive experiments on our datasets demonstrate the superiority of our proposed model for impact-based prediction tasks. We also demonstrate potentials in generating manuscript's feedback and improvement suggestions.

Biomedical Knowledge Graph: A Survey of Domains, Tasks, and Real-World Applications

Biomedical knowledge graphs (BKGs) have emerged as powerful tools for organizing and leveraging the vast and complex data found across the biomedical field. Yet, current reviews of BKGs often limit their scope to specific domains or methods, overlooking the broader landscape and the rapid technological progress reshaping it. In this survey, we address this gap by offering a systematic review of BKGs from three core perspectives: domains, tasks, and applications. We begin by examining how BKGs are constructed from diverse data sources, including molecular interactions, pharmacological datasets, and clinical records. Next, we discuss the essential tasks enabled by BKGs, focusing on knowledge management, retrieval, reasoning, and interpretation. Finally, we highlight real-world applications in precision medicine, drug discovery, and scientific research, illustrating the translational impact of BKGs across multiple sectors. By synthesizing these perspectives into a unified framework, this survey not only clarifies the current state of BKG research but also establishes a foundation for future exploration, enabling both innovative methodological advances and practical implementations.

END$^2$: Robust Dual-Decoder Watermarking Framework Against Non-Differentiable Distortions

DNN-based watermarking methods have rapidly advanced, with the ``Encoder-Noise Layer-Decoder'' (END) framework being the most widely used. To ensure end-to-end training, the noise layer in the framework must be differentiable. However, real-world distortions are often non-differentiable, leading to challenges in end-to-end training. Existing solutions only treat the distortion perturbation as additive noise, which does not fully integrate the effect of distortion in training. To better incorporate non-differentiable distortions into training, we propose a novel dual-decoder architecture (END$^2$). Unlike conventional END architecture, our method employs two structurally identical decoders: the Teacher Decoder, processing pure watermarked images, and the Student Decoder, handling distortion-perturbed images. The gradient is backpropagated only through the Teacher Decoder branch to optimize the encoder thus bypassing the problem of non-differentiability. To ensure resistance to arbitrary distortions, we enforce alignment of the two decoders' feature representations by maximizing the cosine similarity between their intermediate vectors on a hypersphere. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our scheme outperforms state-of-the-art algorithms under various non-differentiable distortions. Moreover, even without the differentiability constraint, our method surpasses baselines with a differentiable noise layer. Our approach is effective and easily implementable across all END architectures, enhancing practicality and generalizability.

An Empirical Study on End-to-End Singing Voice Synthesis with Encoder-Decoder Architectures

With the rapid development of neural network architectures and speech processing models, singing voice synthesis with neural networks is becoming the cutting-edge technique of digital music production. In this work, in order to explore how to improve the quality and efficiency of singing voice synthesis, in this work, we use encoder-decoder neural models and a number of vocoders to achieve singing voice synthesis. We conduct experiments to demonstrate that the models can be trained using voice data with pitch information, lyrics and beat information, and the trained models can produce smooth, clear and natural singing voice that is close to real human voice. As the models work in the end-to-end manner, they allow users who are not domain experts to directly produce singing voice by arranging pitches, lyrics and beats.
