The goal of automatic report generation is to generate a clinically accurate and coherent phrase from a single given X-ray image, which could alleviate the workload of traditional radiology reporting. However, in a real-world scenario, radiologists frequently face the challenge of producing extensive reports derived from numerous medical images, thereby medical report generation from multi-image perspective is needed. In this paper, we propose the Complex Organ Mask Guided (termed as COMG) report generation model, which incorporates masks from multiple organs (e.g., bones, lungs, heart, and mediastinum), to provide more detailed information and guide the model's attention to these crucial body regions. Specifically, we leverage prior knowledge of the disease corresponding to each organ in the fusion process to enhance the disease identification phase during the report generation process. Additionally, cosine similarity loss is introduced as target function to ensure the convergence of cross-modal consistency and facilitate model optimization.Experimental results on two public datasets show that COMG achieves a 11.4% and 9.7% improvement in terms of BLEU@4 scores over the SOTA model KiUT on IU-Xray and MIMIC, respectively. The code is publicly available at https://github.com/GaryGuTC/COMG_model.

AI agents have become increasingly significant in various domains, enabling autonomous decision-making and problem-solving. To function effectively, these agents require a planning process that determines the best course of action and then executes the planned actions. In this paper, we present an efficient on-device Planner-Action framework that separates planning and action execution into two distinct components: a planner agent based on Phi-3 Mini, a 3.8 billion parameter LLM optimized for edge devices, and an action agent using the Octopus model for function execution. The planner agent first responds to user queries by decomposing tasks into a sequence of sub-steps, which are then executed by the action agent. To optimize performance on resource-constrained devices, we employ model fine-tuning instead of in-context learning, reducing computational costs and energy consumption while improving response times. Our approach involves using GPT-4 to generate diverse planning queries and responses based on available functions, with subsequent validations to ensure data quality. We fine-tune the Phi-3 Mini model on this curated dataset, achieving a 97\% success rate in our in-domain test environment. To address multi-domain planning challenges, we developed a multi-LoRA training method that merges weights from LoRAs trained on distinct function subsets. This approach enables flexible handling of complex, multi-domain queries while maintaining computational efficiency on resource-constrained devices. To support further research, we have open-sourced our model weights at \url{https://huggingface.co/NexaAIDev/octopus-planning}.

Mobile Large Language Models (LLMs) are revolutionizing diverse fields such as healthcare, finance, and education with their ability to perform advanced natural language processing tasks on-the-go. However, the deployment of these models in mobile and edge environments introduces significant challenges related to privacy and security due to their resource-intensive nature and the sensitivity of the data they process. This survey provides a comprehensive overview of privacy and security issues associated with mobile LLMs, systematically categorizing existing solutions such as differential privacy, federated learning, and prompt encryption. Furthermore, we analyze vulnerabilities unique to mobile LLMs, including adversarial attacks, membership inference, and side-channel attacks, offering an in-depth comparison of their effectiveness and limitations. Despite recent advancements, mobile LLMs face unique hurdles in achieving robust security while maintaining efficiency in resource-constrained environments. To bridge this gap, we propose potential applications, discuss open challenges, and suggest future research directions, paving the way for the development of trustworthy, privacy-compliant, and scalable mobile LLM systems.
