Patients have long sought health information online, and increasingly, they are turning to generative AI to answer their health-related queries. Given the high stakes of the medical domain, techniques like retrieval-augmented generation and…

As AI chatbots gain adoption in clinical medicine, developing effective frameworks for complex, emerging diseases presents significant challenges. We developed and evaluated six Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) corpus configurations for…

Entity Set Expansion (ESE) is a valuable task that aims to find entities of the target semantic class described by given seed entities. Various Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Information Retrieval (IR) downstream applications have…

Knowledge retrieval is one of the major challenges in building a knowledge-grounded dialogue system. A common method is to use a neural retriever with a distributed approximate nearest-neighbor database to quickly find the relevant…

Motivation: Predicting gene-disease associations (GDAs) is the problem to determine which gene is associated with a disease. GDA prediction can be framed as a ranking problem where genes are ranked for a query disease, based on features…

Drought threatens food and water security around the world, and this threat is likely to become more severe under climate change. High resolution predictive information can help farmers, water managers, and others to manage the effects of…

The large volume of scientific publications is likely to have hidden knowledge that can be used for suggesting new research topics. We propose an automatic method that is helpful for generating research hypotheses in the field of physics…

Large language models record impressive performance on many natural language processing tasks. However, their knowledge capacity is limited to the pretraining corpus. Retrieval augmentation offers an effective solution by retrieving context…

This paper aims to answer one central question: to what extent can open-source generative text models be used in a workflow to approximate thematic analysis in social science research? To answer this question, we present the Generative…

Mining relationships between treatment(s) and medical problem(s) is vital in the biomedical domain. This helps in various applications, such as decision support system, safety surveillance, and new treatment discovery. We propose a deep…

This paper presents a hypothesis-driven approach to improve AI-supported decision-making that is based on the Evaluative AI paradigm - a conceptual framework that proposes providing users with evidence for or against a given hypothesis. We…

This paper presents a new Bayesian non-parametric model by extending the usage of Hierarchical Dirichlet Allocation to extract tree structured word clusters from text data. The inference algorithm of the model collects words in a cluster if…

This paper presents a novel benchmarking framework Dyport for evaluating biomedical hypothesis generation systems. Utilizing curated datasets, our approach tests these systems under realistic conditions, enhancing the relevance of our…

Early detection of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and identification of potential risk/beneficial factors are important for planning and administering timely interventions or preventive measures. In this paper, we learn a disease model for AD…

Topic modeling analyzes documents to learn meaningful patterns of words. However, existing topic models fail to learn interpretable topics when working with large and heavy-tailed vocabularies. To this end, we develop the Embedded Topic…

In traditional human living environment landscape design, the establishment of three-dimensional models is an essential step for designers to intuitively present the spatial relationships of design elements, as well as a foundation for…

In the last decades, philosophers have begun using empirical data for conceptual analysis, but corpus-based conceptual analysis has so far failed to develop, in part because of the absence of reliable methods to automatically detect…

Discovery of the molecular candidates for applications in drug targets, biomolecular systems, catalysts, photovoltaics, organic electronics, and batteries, necessitates development of machine learning algorithms capable of rapid exploration…

While there has been a surge of interest in automated scientific discovery (ASD), especially with the emergence of LLMs, it remains challenging for tools to generate hypotheses that are both testable and grounded in the scientific…

The explosion of big social data has created a scalability trap for traditional qualitative research, as manual coding remains labor-intensive and conventional topic models often suffer from semantic thinning and a lack of domain awareness.…
