| Challenge: | With the development of medical digitization, the extraction and structuring of electronic medical records (EMRs) have become challenging but fundamental tasks. |
| Approach: | They propose a speaker-aware dialogue encoder with multi-task learning which takes the speaker's identity into account and a co-attention fusion network to aggregate the utterance information. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework outperforms the state-of-the-art methods on the public medical dialogue extraction datasets to demonstrate its superiority. |
DenseSSM: State Space Models with Dense Hidden Connection for Efficient Large Language Models (2025.naacl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Large language models (LLMs) face excessive computational and memory requirements due to the commonly used Transformer architecture. |
| Approach: | They propose a method to enhance the flow of hidden information between layers in large language models by selectively integrating shallow-layer hidden states into deeper layers. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method maintains parallelizability and inference efficiency of SSMs while significantly boosting performance on public benchmarks. |
