Fine-tuning large language models is essential for task-specific adaptation, yet it remains computationally prohibitive. Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning (PEFT) methods have emerged as a solution, but current approaches typically ignore the distinct roles of model components and the heterogeneous importance across layers, thereby limiting adaptation efficiency. Motivated by the observation that Rotary Position Embeddings (RoPE) induce critical activations in the low-frequency dimensions of attention states, we propose RoPE-aware Selective Adaptation (RoSA), a novel PEFT framework that allocates trainable parameters in a more targeted and effective manner. RoSA comprises a RoPE-aware Attention Enhancement (RoAE) module, which selectively enhances the low-frequency components of RoPE-influenced attention states, and a Dynamic Layer Selection (DLS) strategy that adaptively identifies and updates the most critical layers based on LayerNorm gradient norms. By combining dimension-wise enhancement with layer-wise adaptation, RoSA achieves more targeted and efficient fine-tuning. Extensive experiments on fifteen commonsense and arithmetic benchmarks demonstrate that RoSA outperforms mainstream PEFT methods under comparable trainable parameters.

POI representation learning plays a crucial role in handling tasks related to user mobility data. Recent studies have shown that enriching POI representations with multimodal information can significantly enhance their task performance. Previously, the textual information incorporated into POI representations typically involved only POI categories or check-in content, leading to relatively weak textual features in existing methods. In contrast, large language models (LLMs) trained on extensive text data have been found to possess rich textual knowledge. However leveraging such knowledge to enhance POI representation learning presents two key challenges: first, how to extract POI-related knowledge from LLMs effectively, and second, how to integrate the extracted information to enhance POI representations. To address these challenges, we propose POI-Enhancer, a portable framework that leverages LLMs to improve POI representations produced by classic POI learning models. We first design three specialized prompts to extract semantic information from LLMs efficiently. Then, the Dual Feature Alignment module enhances the quality of the extracted information, while the Semantic Feature Fusion module preserves its integrity. The Cross Attention Fusion module then fully adaptively integrates such high-quality information into POI representations and Multi-View Contrastive Learning further injects human-understandable semantic information into these representations. Extensive experiments on three real-world datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our framework, showing significant improvements across all baseline representations.

Multimodal emotion recognition in conversations aims to accurately detect emotions by integrating audio, text, and video modalities, playing an important role in various systems. Existing approaches utilize convolutional and recurrent networks to learn short-term emotional information from individual modalities, or employ graph and attention mechanisms to integrate long-term emotional information from multiple modalities. These methods effectively combine emotional information within the conversational content in the time domain.However, psychological research shows that emotional information are not only conveyed in the time domain but also in the frequency domain (e.g., pitch and speech rate). To capture emotions from a more comprehensive perspective, we propose TF-MERC, a framework that integrates both time and frequency domains.TF-MERC uses a multi-domain alignment module to learn modality information within the time or frequency domains. It then employs FATransformer to deeply integrate the multimodal associations between the time and frequency domains, providing a more comprehensive approach for emotion prediction.Experimental results show that TF-MERC outperforms state-of-the-art methods, achieving superior performance across multiple datasets.

With increased human mobility and the introduction of NPIs, the complex, dynamic spread of COVID-19 has diverged significantly from SEIR's single, static assumption. At the same time, the ability to obtain front-line data also limits the modeling capabilities of SEIR. For researchers who cannot program, they must find suitable collaborators to implement their research. Even for researchers who can program, they need to repeat the principle and application process of the infectious disease model. LibEpidemic provide an open-source framework for modeling infectious disease, especially COVID-19, with bigdata. Researchers can implement subdivided, multi-stage or even metapopulation with the support of LibEpidemic.
