Ten issues of NetGPT
With the rapid development and application of foundation models (FMs), it is
foreseeable that FMs will play an important role in future wireless
communications. As current Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms applied in
wireless networks are dedicated models that aim for different neural network
architectures and objectives, drawbacks in aspects of generality, performance
gain, management, collaboration, etc. need to be conquered. In this paper, we
define NetGPT (Network Generative Pre-trained Transformer) -- the foundation
models for wireless communications, and summarize ten issues regarding design
and application of NetGPT
D-2-hydroxyglutarate is essential for maintaining oncogenic property of mutant IDH-containing cancer cells but dispensable for cell growth
Cancer-associated isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) 1 and 2 mutations gain a new activity of reducing α-KG to produce D-2-hydroxyglutarate (D-2-HG), which is proposed to function as an oncometabolite by inhibiting α-KG dependent dioxygenases. We investigated the function of D-2-HG in tumorigenesis using IDH1 and IDH2 mutant cancer cell lines. Inhibition of D-2-HG production either by specific deletion of the mutant IDH1-R132C allele or overexpression of D-2-hydroxyglutarate dehydrogenase (D2HGDH) increases α-KG and related metabolites, restores the activity of some α-KG-dependent dioxygenases, and selectively alters gene expression. Ablation of D-2-HG production has no significant effect on cell proliferation and migration, but strongly inhibits anchorage independent growth in vitro and tumor growth in xenografted mouse models. Our study identifies a new activity of oncometabolite D-2-HG in promoting tumorigenesis
The Relationship Between Cognitive Dysfunction and Symptom Dimensions Across Schizophrenia, Bipolar Disorder, and Major Depressive Disorder
Background: Cognitive dysfunction is considered a core feature among schizophrenia (SZ), bipolar disorder (BD), and major depressive disorder (MDD). Despite abundant literature comparing cognitive dysfunction among these disorders, the relationship between cognitive dysfunction and symptom dimensions remains unclear. The study aims are a) to identify the factor structure of the BPRS-18 and b) to examine the relationship between symptom domains and cognitive function across SZ, BD, and MDD.Methods: A total of 716 participants [262 with SZ, 104 with BD, 101 with MDD, and 249 healthy controls (HC)] were included in the study. One hundred eighty participants (59 with SZ, 23 with BD, 24 with MDD, and 74 HC) completed the MATRICS Consensus Cognitive Battery (MCCB), and 507 participants (85 with SZ, 89 with BD, 90 with MDD, and 243 HC) completed the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST). All patients completed the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS).Results: We identified five BPRS exploratory factor analysis (EFA) factors (“affective symptoms,” “psychosis,” “negative/disorganized symptoms,” “activation,” and “noncooperation”) and found cognitive dysfunction in all of the participant groups with psychiatric disorders. Negative/disorganized symptoms were the most strongly associated with cognitive dysfunctions across SZ, BD, and MDD.Conclusions: Our findings suggest that cognitive dysfunction severity relates to the negative/disorganized symptom domain across SZ, BD, and MDD, and negative/disorganized symptoms may be an important target for effective cognitive remediation in SZ, BD, and MDD
Traffic4cast at NeurIPS 2022 -- Predict Dynamics along Graph Edges from Sparse Node Data: Whole City Traffic and ETA from Stationary Vehicle Detectors
The global trends of urbanization and increased personal mobility force us to
rethink the way we live and use urban space. The Traffic4cast competition
series tackles this problem in a data-driven way, advancing the latest methods
in machine learning for modeling complex spatial systems over time. In this
edition, our dynamic road graph data combine information from road maps,
probe data points, and stationary vehicle detectors in three cities
over the span of two years. While stationary vehicle detectors are the most
accurate way to capture traffic volume, they are only available in few
locations. Traffic4cast 2022 explores models that have the ability to
generalize loosely related temporal vertex data on just a few nodes to predict
dynamic future traffic states on the edges of the entire road graph. In the
core challenge, participants are invited to predict the likelihoods of three
congestion classes derived from the speed levels in the GPS data for the entire
road graph in three cities 15 min into the future. We only provide vehicle
count data from spatially sparse stationary vehicle detectors in these three
cities as model input for this task. The data are aggregated in 15 min time
bins for one hour prior to the prediction time. For the extended challenge,
participants are tasked to predict the average travel times on super-segments
15 min into the future - super-segments are longer sequences of road segments
in the graph. The competition results provide an important advance in the
prediction of complex city-wide traffic states just from publicly available
sparse vehicle data and without the need for large amounts of real-time
floating vehicle data.Comment: Pre-print under review, submitted to Proceedings of Machine Learning
