| 2025 | Understanding Large Language Model Performance in Software Engineering: A Large-scale Question Answering BenchmarkabstractIn this work, we introduce CodeRepoQA, a large-scale benchmark specifically designed for evaluating repository-level question-answering capabilities in the field of software engineering. CodeRepoQA encompasses five programming languages and covers a wide range of scenarios, enabling comprehensive evaluation of language models.To construct this dataset, we crawl data from 30 well-known repositories in GitHub, the largest platform for hosting and collaborating on code, and carefully filter the raw data.In total, CodeRepoQA is a multi-turn question-answering benchmark with 585,687 entries. It covers a diverse array of software engineering scenarios, with an average of 6.62 dialogue turns per entry.

| 2025 | An innovative peptide toxicity prediction model based on multi-scale convolutional neural network and residual connectionabstractMOTIVATION: Peptide toxicity is a critical concern in the development of peptide-based therapeutics, as toxic peptides can lead to severe side effects, including organ damage, immune reactions, and cytotoxicity. Predicting peptide toxicity accurately is essential to ensure the safety and efficacy of these drugs. RESULTS: In this study, we propose a novel model, ToxMSRC, to predict peptide toxicity using a combination of the continuous bag of words (CBOW) method from word2vec, synthetic minority over-sampling technique (SMOTE), multi-scale convolutional neural networks (CNN), and bidirectional long short-term memory (BiLSTM). This approach addresses the challenge of data imbalance by augmenting positive samples and improves feature extraction through multi-scale convolution. Furthermore, the model incorporates a residual connection that helps prevent overfitting and enhances generalization ability, improving classification performance. The model is evaluated on benchmark and independent test sets, achieving BACC scores of 92.17% on independent test1 and 86.89% on independent test2, outperforming existing state-of-the-art models. Additionally, ToxMSRC provides valuable insights into the relationship between peptide toxicity and amino acid sequences, demonstrating its potential and practical value in peptide-based drug development. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: The complete datasets, source code, and pre-trained models are made available at https://github.com/Renjingyi123/ToxMSRC and https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.15668530.

| 2024 | Large-scale spatial data visualization method based on augmented realityabstractA task assigned to space exploration satellites involves detecting the physical environment within a certain space. However, space detection data are complex and abstract. These data are not conducive for researchers' visual perceptions of the evolution and interaction of events in the space environment. A time-series dynamic data sampling method for large-scale space was proposed for sample detection data in space and time, and the corresponding relationships between data location features and other attribute features were established. A tone-mapping method based on statistical histogram equalization was proposed and applied to the final attribute feature data. The visualization process is optimized for rendering by merging materials, reducing the number of patches, and performing other operations. The results of sampling, feature extraction, and uniform visualization of the detection data of complex types, long duration spans, and uneven spatial distributions were obtained. The real-time visualization of large-scale spatial structures using augmented reality devices, particularly low-performance devices, was also investigated. The proposed visualization system can reconstruct the three-dimensional structure of a large-scale space, express the structure and changes in the spatial environment using augmented reality, and assist in intuitively discovering spatial environmental events and evolutionary rules.
