We propose an interactive editing method that allows humans to help deep neural networks (DNNs) learn a latent space more consistent with human knowledge, thereby improving classification accuracy on indistinguishable ambiguous data. Firstly, we visualize high-dimensional data features through dimensionality reduction methods and design an interactive system \textit{SpaceEditing} to display the visualized data. \textit{SpaceEditing} provides a 2D workspace based on the idea of spatial layout. In this workspace, the user can move the projection data in it according to the system guidance. Then, \textit{SpaceEditing} will find the corresponding high-dimensional features according to the projection data moved by the user, and feed the high-dimensional features back to the network for retraining, therefore achieving the purpose of interactively modifying the high-dimensional latent space for the user. Secondly, to more rationally incorporate human knowledge into the training process of neural networks, we design a new loss function that enables the network to learn user-modified information. Finally, We demonstrate how \textit{SpaceEditing} meets user needs through three case studies while evaluating our proposed new method, and the results confirm the effectiveness of our method.

While reasoning-enhanced large language models perform strongly on English medical tasks, a persistent multilingual gap remains, with substantially weaker reasoning in local languages, limiting equitable global medical deployment. To bridge this gap, we introduce Med-CoReasoner, a language-informed co-reasoning framework that elicits parallel English and local-language reasoning, abstracts them into structured concepts, and integrates local clinical knowledge into an English logical scaffold via concept-level alignment and retrieval. This design combines the structural robustness of English reasoning with the practice-grounded expertise encoded in local languages. To evaluate multilingual medical reasoning beyond multiple-choice settings, we construct MultiMed-X, a benchmark covering seven languages with expert-annotated long-form question answering and natural language inference tasks, comprising 350 instances per language. Experiments across three benchmarks show that Med-CoReasoner improves multilingual reasoning performance by an average of 5%, with particularly substantial gains in low-resource languages. Moreover, model distillation and expert evaluation analysis further confirm that Med-CoReasoner produces clinically sound and culturally grounded reasoning traces.

Chinese essay writing and its evaluation are critical in educational contexts, yet the capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) in this domain remain largely underexplored. Existing benchmarks often rely on coarse-grained text quality metrics, largely overlooking the structural and rhetorical complexities of Chinese essays, particularly across diverse genres. To address this gap, we propose \benchName, a multi-genre benchmark specifically designed for Chinese essay writing across four major genres: Argumentative, Narrative, Descriptive, and Expository. We curate and refine a total of 728 real-world prompts to ensure authenticity and meticulously categorize them into the \textit{Open-Ended} and \textit{Constrained} sets to capture diverse writing scenarios. To reliably evaluate generated essays, we develop a fine-grained, genre-specific scoring framework that hierarchically aggregates scores. We further validate our evaluation protocol through a comprehensive human agreement study. Finally, we benchmark 15 large-sized LLMs, analyzing their strengths and limitations across genres and instruction types. With \benchName, we aim to advance LLM-based Chinese essay evaluation and inspire future research on improving essay generation in educational settings.
