E-commerce authoring entails creating engaging, diverse, and targeted content to enhance preference elicitation and retrieval experience. While Large Language Models (LLMs) have revolutionized content generation, they often fall short in e-commerce applications due to their limited memorization of domain-specific features. This paper proposes LLaMA-E, the unified e-commerce authoring models that address the contextual preferences of customers, sellers, and platforms, the essential objects in e-commerce operation. We design the instruction set derived from tasks of ads generation, query-enhanced product title rewriting, product classification, purchase intent speculation, and general e-commerce Q&A. The instruction formulation ensures the interleaved cover of the presented and required object features, allowing the alignment of base models to parameterise e-commerce knowledge comprehensively. The proposed LLaMA-E models achieve state-of-the-art evaluation performance and exhibit the advantage in zero-shot practical applications. To our knowledge, this is the first LLM tailored to empower authoring applications with comprehensive scenario understanding by integrating features focused on participated objects.

Human Pose Estimation (HPE) plays a crucial role in computer vision applications. However, it is difficult to deploy state-of-the-art models on resouce-limited devices due to the high computational costs of the networks. In this work, a binary human pose estimator named BiHRNet(Binary HRNet) is proposed, whose weights and activations are expressed as $\pm$1. BiHRNet retains the keypoint extraction ability of HRNet, while using fewer computing resources by adapting binary neural network (BNN). In order to reduce the accuracy drop caused by network binarization, two categories of techniques are proposed in this work. For optimizing the training process for binary pose estimator, we propose a new loss function combining KL divergence loss with AWing loss, which makes the binary network obtain more comprehensive output distribution from its real-valued counterpart to reduce information loss caused by binarization. For designing more binarization-friendly structures, we propose a new information reconstruction bottleneck called IR Bottleneck to retain more information in the initial stage of the network. In addition, we also propose a multi-scale basic block called MS-Block for information retention. Our work has less computation cost with few precision drop. Experimental results demonstrate that BiHRNet achieves a PCKh of 87.9 on the MPII dataset, which outperforms all binary pose estimation networks. On the challenging of COCO dataset, the proposed method enables the binary neural network to achieve 70.8 mAP, which is better than most tested lightweight full-precision networks.

Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) has shown promising results in enhancing Q&A by incorporating information from the web and other external sources. However, the supporting documents retrieved from the heterogeneous web often originate from multiple sources with diverse writing styles, varying formats, and inconsistent granularity. Fusing such multi-source documents into a coherent and knowledge-intensive context remains a significant challenge, as the presence of irrelevant and redundant information can compromise the factual consistency of the inferred answers. This paper proposes the Concept-oriented Context Reconstruction RAG (CoCR-RAG), a framework that addresses the multi-source information fusion problem in RAG through linguistically grounded concept-level integration. Specifically, we introduce a concept distillation algorithm that extracts essential concepts from Abstract Meaning Representation (AMR), a stable semantic representation that structures the meaning of texts as logical graphs. The distilled concepts from multiple retrieved documents are then fused and reconstructed into a unified, information-intensive context by Large Language Models, which supplement only the necessary sentence elements to highlight the core knowledge. Experiments on the PopQA and EntityQuestions datasets demonstrate that CoCR-RAG significantly outperforms existing context-reconstruction methods across these Web Q&A benchmarks. Furthermore, CoCR-RAG shows robustness across various backbone LLMs, establishing itself as a flexible, plug-and-play component adaptable to different RAG frameworks.

In this paper, we conduct a sentence level sentiment analysis on the product reviews from Amazon and thorough analysis on the model interpretability. For the sentiment analysis task, we use the BiLSTM model with attention mechanism. For the study of interpretability, we consider the attention weights distribution of single sentence and the attention weights of main aspect terms. The model has an accuracy of up to 0.96. And we find that the aspect terms have the same or even more attention weights than the sentimental words in sentences.
