[Purpose/Significance] Metaphor understanding depends on specific contexts.However, machines are unable to make inferences based on context when understanding images, making it difficult to grasp the metaphorical meaning behind the images.Constructing a knowledge description framework of image metaphor and proposing strategies for understanding image metaphors will promote understanding of image metaphors. [Method/Process] By reviewing the research of image metaphor understanding, taking complex and abstract psychological health images as an example, the study constructed a knowledge description framework of image metaphor.Based on the framework, the study annotated 351 psychological health images, and proposed four image metaphor understanding strategies based on the contextual relevance and abstraction level. [Result/Conclusion] The results shows that the knowledge description framework of image metaphor consists of five parts: image semantics, image context, metaphorical mapping relationship, metaphor type, and metaphorical meaning.The strategy of understanding metaphors in"direct-concrete"images is association understanding based on image-text matching, the strategy in"direct-abstract"images is direct parsing based on keywords, the strategy in"non direct-concrete"images is indirectly inferring based on semantic association, and the strategy in"non direct-abstract"image is comprehensively understanding based on perceptual similarity.This work provides references for research on machine understanding images.
[Purpose/Significance] The paper aims to generate high-quality synonymous sentences for academic texts utilizing large language models and enhance the performance of natural language inference model through the implementation of semantic enhancement strategies. [Method/Process] Based on the utilization of large language model to generate synonymous sentences for academic texts, the paper proposed a semantic-enhanced natural language inference model, SENLI.The model consisted of a representation module, a semantic enhancement module, and an inference module.Specifically, the representation module was responsible for capturing the semantic features of academic texts and their corresponding synonymous sentences.The semantic enhancement module integrated the semantic features of the synonymous sentences into the original semantic features of the academic texts, thereby obtaining semantic-enhanced features.Finally, the inference module predicted the semantic relationship between pairs of academic texts based on both the original semantic features and the semantic-enhanced features.The study conducted an empirical study by applying the proposed model to the SciTail, SciNLI, and ZwNLI datasets. [Result/Conclusion] The experimental results show that the SENLI model achieves accuracy rates of 95.11%, 79.20%, and 98.43% on the SciTail, SciNLI, and ZwNLI datasets, respectively.Compared to the baseline models, the improvements are at least 1.27%, 1.08%, and 0.92%, demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed model.The utilization of synonymous sentences generated by large language models for semantic enhancement can enhance the performance of natural language inference model.The research contributes to advancing the field of natural language inference and provides potential technical support for applications such as information retrieval and academic literature mining.

[Purpose/Significance] Is there any difference in title terms between disruptive and continuing innovation patents? What words do they prefer? What are the differences about characteristics between these words? [Method/Process] To solve these problems, this paper selected patents in the field of molecular biology and microbiology. First, the study divided the patents into continuous and disruptive types by using D index, and then displayed two patents of the difference of high frequency words in the title by comparing word frequency, the co-occurrence graph, at last, put forward the innovation type measurement to measure each of the headings of innovative and selection process to distinguish the larger research subject and writing style. [Result/Conclusion] The research shows that there are significant differences between disruptive and continuous innovation patents in terms of title words. Continuous innovation patents often use words with the tendency of gradual improvement and further discovery, such as "Detection" and "with", and often use "Methods" and "motivation" together. The title of disruptive innovation patent is commonly used with some emerging and novel words such as "Human", and "Methods" and "Producing" are often used together. In addition, the innovation type metric can well select the research subject words and writing style words with great innovation difference between the two types of patent titles.

[Purpose/Significance] The cross-border data flow governance policy is an important basis for the governance of a country's cross-border data flow in the context of global digital transformation, and plays an important guiding role in improving the data governance system and safeguarding the security of national data resources. [Method/Process] To analyze Chinese current major cross-border data flow governance policies, this study constructed a framework containing executing subjects-policy tools-policy objectives, revealing the main content, basic logic, and implementation path of Chinese governmental cross-border data governance system. [Result/Conclusion] According to the findings, there is a relatively single main body for the implementation of cross-border data governance policies in China, with less involvement of third-party organizations. Chinese cross-border data governance policies are in an imbalanced state of supply-heavy and demand-light in the policy instrument dimension, with polarized content structure of environmental instruments. Insufficient coordination in the goal dimension, focusing primarily on data security, flow efficiency, and standardized management, while neglecting the goal of personal information rights and interests. It is believed that the policy system should be improved from the standpoints of balanced policy instrument configuration, synergy of multiple subjects, and optimized combination of objectives, in order to promote the safe and orderly flow of data across borders and help realize the value of Chinese national data resources.

[Purpose/Significance] By systematically reviewing the research literature in the field of intelligent agent role modeling, this paper deconstructs the mechanisms of human-machine collaboration in complex application scenarios, providing theoretical support for the iterative upgrade of intelligent agent design paradigms. [Method/Process] The study employed a meta-synthesis approach to conduct coding analysis on 89 carefully selected Chinese and English literatures, deconstructed the research context of intelligent agents' situational adaptability from three dimensions: role requirements, role creation, and role interaction. [Result/Conclusion] From an integrated perspective of human-ai interaction and situational adaptability design, this paper proposes a three-layer framework: "requirement-defined boundaries(What)→technical implementation concepts(How)→mechanism validation value(Why)"."Requirement-defined boundaries"analyzes role requirements and drives technology selection; "Technical implementation concepts"focus on role creation and personalized design, transforming needs into executable models; "Mechanism validation value"explores role interaction mechanisms, generating feedback data that flows back to the requirement layer.Despite progress in emotional understanding, contextual analysis, and multimodal interaction, current intelligent agents suffer from limitations such as memory constraints, role hallucinations, and role reversals.Future research should center on the deep integration of these three layers of mechanisms, promoting innovations in memory expansion, role alignment, privacy protection, and further advancing the widespread application of intelligent agents.
