| 2026 | MedMKEB: A Comprehensive Knowledge Editing Benchmark for Medical Multimodal Large Language ModelsabstractRecent advances in multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have significantly improved medical AI, enabling it to unify the understanding of visual and textual information. However, as medical knowledge continues to evolve, it is critical to allow these models to efficiently update outdated or incorrect information without retraining from scratch. Although textual knowledge editing has been widely studied, there is still a lack of systematic benchmarks for multimodal medical knowledge editing involving image and text modalities. To fill this gap, we present MedMKEB, the first comprehensive benchmark designed to evaluate the reliability, generality, locality, portability, and robustness of knowledge editing in medical multimodal large language models. MedMKEB is built on a high-quality medical visual question-answering dataset and enriched with carefully constructed editing tasks, including counterfactual correction, semantic generalization, knowledge transfer, and adversarial robustness. We incorporate human expert validation to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the benchmark. Extensive experiments on state-of-the-art general and medical MLLMs demonstrate the limitations of existing knowledge editing methods in the medical domain, highlighting the need to develop specialized editing strategies.

| 2025 | Research on Medication Rules for Xiongbi in Ancient Books of Traditional Chinese Medicine Based on Evidence-Based Medicine and Data MiningabstractObjective To systematically evaluate and analyze the prescriptions for treating Xiongbi (Chest Bi-Syndrome) in ancient Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) books by integrating evidence-based valuation of ancient TCM literature and data mining methods. Methods First, the screened vidence of TCM prescriptions for Xiongbi from ancient books was evaluated and graded using the Evaluation and Grading Scale for Evidence of Disease Prevention and Treatment in Ancient TCM Books. For high-level evidence, the “Ancient and Modern Medical Records Cloud Platform” was applied to analyze indicators including drug use frequency, efficacy categories, nature, taste, and meridian tropism of drugs. Additionally, association rule analysis and cluster analysis were conducted. Results A total of 155 pieces of evidence from ancient TCM books for treating Xiongbi were finally included. Through evaluation, 31 prescriptions (e.g., Renshen Decoction, Fuling Xingren Gancao Decoction, Gualou Xiebai Banxia Decoction) were identified as high-level evidence. Data mining results showed that, among the high-level evidence for Xiongbi treatment in ancient books, the main drug efficacies were dispelling cold to relieve pain, tonifying fire to support yang, and warming and unblocking meridians; warm-natured drugs were most frequently used; pungent was the dominant taste of drugs; and the spleen meridian was the primary meridian tropism. Association rule analysis revealed that Cinnamomi Cortex (cinnamon) was a common drug for treating Xiongbi with heart pain, and the “Ginseng-Cinnamomi Cortex” pair was the most frequently used drug combination for Xiongbi. Cluster analysis yielded 4 core prescription groups, each reflecting distinct treatment strategies. Conclusion This study conducts quality evaluation and in-depth mining analysis of prescriptions for Xiongbi in ancient TCM books using evidence-based evaluation of ancient TCM literature and data mining. The results not only provide more reliable evidence from ancient books for the clinical treatment of Xiongbi in TCM but also offer sufficient ancient book-based evidence support for the formulation of TCM clinical decisions.

| 2025 | ARHet: An Asymmetric Link-Based Routing Protocol in Heterogeneous Multi-Radio FANETsabstractFlying Ad Hoc Networks (FANETs) formed by Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) with multiple heterogeneous radios are increasingly being adopted for various applications. However, the presence of asymmetric links caused by hardware differences poses challenges to common routing protocols designed for homogeneous FANETs. Ignoring asymmetric links may lead to inefficient resource utilization and compromise network connectivity, resulting in a significant decline in the performance of existing protocols. How to fully utilize the abundant link resources to enhance the network performance and offer more routing options for data with diversified service requirements, is a challenging task. In this paper, we propose an asymmetric link-based routing protocol in heterogeneous multi-radio FANETs, named ARHet. To efficiently exploit the asymmetric links, we first propose an asymmetric link discovery and information feedback mechanism. Then, to satisfy the specific service requirement of each type of data, we propose a traffic-differentiated routing strategy that can establish the appropriate paths for them. Experimental results show that ARHet can improve the delivery ratio by 20 %, increase the throughput by 31 %, and reduce the overhead by 69 % compared to the other benchmarks. In addition, ARHet can achieve a better differentiated service performance. Huamin Zhang, Lihuan Hui |

| 2023 | TCMFP: a novel herbal formula prediction method based on network target's score integrated with semi-supervised learning genetic algorithmsabstractTraditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has accumulated thousands years of knowledge in herbal therapy, but the use of herbal formulas is still characterized by reliance on personal experience. Due to the complex mechanism of herbal actions, it is challenging to discover effective herbal formulas for diseases by integrating the traditional experiences and modern pharmacological mechanisms of multi-target interactions. In this study, we propose a herbal formula prediction approach (TCMFP) combined therapy experience of TCM, artificial intelligence and network science algorithms to screen optimal herbal formula for diseases efficiently, which integrates a herb score (Hscore) based on the importance of network targets, a pair score (Pscore) based on empirical learning and herbal formula predictive score (FmapScore) based on intelligent optimization and genetic algorithm. The validity of Hscore, Pscore and FmapScore was verified by functional similarity and network topological evaluation. Moreover, TCMFP was used successfully to generate herbal formulae for three diseases, i.e. the Alzheimer's disease, asthma and atherosclerosis. Functional enrichment and network analysis indicates the efficacy of targets for the predicted optimal herbal formula. The proposed TCMFP may provides a new strategy for the optimization of herbal formula, TCM herbs therapy and drug development.

| 2022 | Business process recommendation method based on cost constraintsabstractBusiness process recommendation can be used to simplify the working procedures of enterprises, avoid unnecessary expenses, and promote the development of enterprises. In the process of process recommendation, there are a lot of activities that are similar in structure and difficult to choose. Here, a process recommendation method based on cost constraints is proposed to solve the problem of difficult to distinguish similar processes. First, the business process is transformed into a labelled Petri net, and the execution probability of each transition is calculated according to the business process log. Then, the matrix used to represent Petri nets is constructed according to the adjacent relationship between transitions, and the matrix is made into the same dimension, and the similarity between matrices is calculated by biggest–smallest approach degree, and the set of Petri nets with similar structure is established. Finally, a cost constraint-based process recommendation method is proposed to find lower service cost items in similar process sets. In the experimental part, the feasibility of the method is compared and verified. Qianqian Wang 0010, Chifeng Shao, Xianwen Fang, Huamin Zhang |

Methods: Use TCMIP V2.0 to collect the drug components, targets, and MIRI disease targets of the recipe for phlegm and blood stasis, construct a drug-disease-target interaction network, screen drugs and disease common targets, analyze the biological process of the common targets, and finally establish a “component-target-pathway-pharmacological action” multi-dimensional network analysis and analysis of the core components in the network. Results: A total of 157 medicinal chemical components, such as Pinellia, Red Peony, Chuanxiong, Licorice, etc. were collected from the prescription of phlegm and blood stasis, with 272 corresponding targets. A total of 290 MIRI disease targets were collected. Through "Traditional Chinese Medicine Association Network Mining," the first 100 targets in the core targets were analyzed and 31 targets shared by drugs and diseases. Analysis of these shared targets revealed that the shared targets are mainly involved in the positive regulation of tube formation, angiogenesis, positive regulation of autophagy, inflammation, and negative regulation of apoptosis. KEGG enrichment analysis shows that these common targets are mainly enriched in the FoxO signaling pathway, HIF-1 signaling pathway, TNF signaling pathway, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, VEGF signaling pathways and other signal pathways. Further analysis of the multi-dimensional network revealed that 46 components of Tanyu Tongzhi Prescription affect the above five signal pathways to exert anti-MIRI effects by interacting with 19 shared targets. Among them, quercetin, kaempferol, naringenin, and baicalein are intervened. AKT affects five signal pathways involved in the occurrence and development of MIRI. Conclusion: Quercetin, kaempferol, naringenin, and baicalein in Tanyu Tongzhi Recipe can resist MIRI by regulating inflammation, autophagy and apoptosis, oxidative stress, angiogenesis, and other processes.
