The early detection and precise diagnosis of liver tumors are tasks of critical clinical value, yet they pose significant challenges due to the high heterogeneity and variability of liver tumors. In this work, a precise LIver tumor DIAgnosis network on multi-phase contrast-enhance CT, named LIDIA, is proposed for real-world scenario. To fully utilize all available phases in contrast-enhanced CT, LIDIA first employs the iterative fusion module to aggregate variable numbers of image phases, thereby capturing the features of lesions at different phases for better tumor diagnosis. To effectively mitigate the high heterogeneity problem of liver tumors, LIDIA incorporates asymmetric contrastive learning to enhance the discriminability between different classes. To evaluate our method, we constructed a large-scale dataset comprising 1,921 patients and 8,138 lesions. LIDIA has achieved an average AUC of 93.6% across eight different types of lesions, demonstrating its effectiveness. Besides, LIDIA also demonstrated strong generalizability with an average AUC of 89.3% when tested on an external cohort of 828 patients.

The widespread dissemination of fake news on social media has significantly impacted society, resulting in serious consequences. Conventional deep learning methodologies employing small language models (SLMs) suffer from extensive supervised training requirements and difficulties adapting to evolving news environments due to data scarcity and distribution shifts. Large language models (LLMs), despite robust zero-shot capabilities, fall short in accurately detecting fake news owing to outdated knowledge and the absence of suitable demonstrations. In this paper, we propose a novel Continuous Collaborative Emergent Fake News Detection (C$^2$EFND) framework to address these challenges. The C$^2$EFND framework strategically leverages both LLMs' generalization power and SLMs' classification expertise via a multi-round collaborative learning framework. We further introduce a lifelong knowledge editing module based on a Mixture-of-Experts architecture to incrementally update LLMs and a replay-based continue learning method to ensure SLMs retain prior knowledge without retraining entirely. Extensive experiments on Pheme and Twitter16 datasets demonstrate that C$^2$EFND significantly outperforms existed methods, effectively improving detection accuracy and adaptability in continuous emergent fake news scenarios.
