GSI Agent: Domain Knowledge Enhancement for Large Language Models in Green Stormwater Infrastructure

Shaohuang Wang

Green Stormwater Infrastructure (GSI) systems, such as permeable pavement, rain gardens, and bioretention facilities, require continuous inspection and maintenance to ensure long-term performance. However, domain knowledge about GSI is often scattered across municipal manuals, regulatory documents, and inspection forms. As a result, non-expert users and maintenance staff may struggle to obtain reliable and actionable guidance from field observations. Although Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated strong general reasoning and language generation capabilities, they often lack domain-specific knowledge and may produce inaccurate or hallucinated answers in engineering scenarios. This limitation restricts their direct application to professional infrastructure tasks. In this paper, we propose GSI Agent, a domain-enhanced LLM framework designed to improve performance in GSI-related tasks. Our approach integrates three complementary strategies: (1) supervised fine-tuning (SFT) on a curated GSI instruction dataset, (2) retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) over an internal GSI knowledge base constructed from municipal documents, and (3) an agent-based reasoning pipeline that coordinates retrieval, context integration, and structured response generation. We also construct a new GSI Dataset aligned with real-world GSI inspection and maintenance scenarios. Experimental results show that our framework significantly improves domain-specific performance while maintaining general knowledge capability. On the GSI dataset, BLEU-4 improves from 0.090 to 0.307, while performance on the common knowledge dataset remains stable (0.304 vs. 0.305). These results demonstrate that systematic domain knowledge enhancement can effectively adapt general-purpose LLMs to professional infrastructure applications.

CherryRec: Enhancing News Recommendation Quality via LLM-driven Framework

Shaohuang Wang, Lun Wang, Yunhan Bu et al.

Large Language Models (LLMs) have achieved remarkable progress in language understanding and generation. Custom LLMs leveraging textual features have been applied to recommendation systems, demonstrating improvements across various recommendation scenarios. However, most existing methods perform untrained recommendation based on pre-trained knowledge (e.g., movie recommendation), and the auto-regressive generation of LLMs leads to slow inference speeds, making them less effective in real-time recommendations.To address this, we propose a framework for news recommendation using LLMs, named \textit{CherryRec}, which ensures the quality of recommendations while accelerating the recommendation process. Specifically, we employ a Knowledge-aware News Rapid Selector to retrieve candidate options based on the user's interaction history. The history and retrieved items are then input as text into a fine-tuned LLM, the Content-aware News Llm Evaluator, designed to enhance news recommendation capabilities. Finally, the Value-aware News Scorer integrates the scores to compute the CherryRec Score, which serves as the basis for the final recommendation.We validate the effectiveness of the proposed framework by comparing it with state-of-the-art baseline methods on benchmark datasets. Our experimental results consistently show that CherryRec outperforms the baselines in both recommendation performance and efficiency.The project resource can be accessed at: \url{https://github.com/xxxxxx}
