A Systematic Review of Large Language Models in Medical Specialties: Applications, Challenges and Future Directions

Description: Article synthesizes evidence from 84 studies published between January 2021 and March 2024 on the use of large language models (LLMs) across medical specialties, highlighting applications in clinical NLP, diagnostic support, and medical education. Although LLMs demonstrate high accuracy in certain narrowly defined tasks, their performance remains highly variable and methodologically inconsistent, underscoring the need for domain‑specific models and rigorous validation standards to ensure safe c… more

Optimizing Intrusion Detection in IoMT Networks Through Interpretable and Cost-Aware Machine Learning

Description: Article presents a cybersecurity framework for Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) networks using a fine‑tuned XGBoost classifier, achieving high attack‑detection accuracy while maintaining interpretability through SHAP‑based feature analysis. Comparative evaluation with Logistic Regression and a late‑fusion max‑voting model shows that the fused approach offers improved precision and reduced false negatives, providing a balanced, cost‑efficient, and robust solution for securing modern IoMT enviro… more

Robust Federated Learning Against Data Poisoning Attacks: Prevention and Detection of Attacked Nodes

Description: Article presents a robust federated learning defense framework that combines a prevention strategy, Confident Federated Learning, which identifies and removes mislabeled local samples, with a novel detection method that flags malicious workers through class‑wise clustering of neuron activation patterns. Together, these approaches effectively mitigate data‑poisoning attacks, ensure rapid global‑model convergence, and maintain resilience across data distributions and model sizes without requiring… more

Content-based quality evaluation of scientific papers using coarse feature and knowledge entity network

Description: Article introduces a content‑based, interpretable framework for pre‑evaluating scientific paper quality by defining key attributes - integrity, clarity, novelty, and significance - and modeling them through fine‑grained metadata and knowledge‑network features. Article demonstrates that this approach, validated on the ICLR dataset with Random Forest achieving F1 scores of 0.715 and 0.762, enhances machine‑learning performance and provides transparent, feature‑driven evidence for assessing scient… more
