This study examines how sociotechnical imaginaries of artificial intelligence (AI) in cultural heritage are organised across institutionally differentiated Chinese news media and reproduced over time. Drawing on nine outlets from 2022–2025, it combines exploratory computational mapping, thematic analysis, relation-focused lexical indicators, independent double coding, and temporal modelling. The primary analysis uses a 232-case high-precision semantic core, checked against a 357-case sensitivity set. The findings identify a recurring normative orientation in which AI is positioned as culturally beneficial through two overlapping configurations: cultural revival and memory infrastructure. Cultural revival is widely shared across analytical positions, whereas memory infrastructure shows the clearest recurrent position-linked differentiation. Public actors are often visible, yet no case meets the strict criterion for explicitly attributed public definitional authority. Temporal tests show persistence in the broader orientation alongside uneven plasticity across articulation modes. The study develops differentiated coherence as a communication-level concept for explaining how a sociotechnical imaginary can remain recognisable through structured selective rearticulation, visibility–authority decoupling, and discursive reproduction without requiring uniform messages or implying causal institutional effects.
GAOKAO-Bench is introduced, an intuitive benchmark that employs questions from the Chinese GAOKAO examination as test samples, including both subjective and objective questions that contribute a robust evaluation benchmark for future large language models and offers valuable insights into the advantages and limitations...

This work investigates the possibilities of using LLMs in a resume screening setting via a document retrieval framework that simulates job candidate selection and finds that the MTEs are biased, significantly favoring White-associated names in 85% of cases and female-associated names in only 11.1% of cases.
This paper presents a comprehensive overview of the Ultralytics YOLO family, emphasizing architectural evolution, benchmarking, deployment, and emerging directions from YOLOv5 through YOLO27, and examines detection, segmentation, depth, classification, pose, oriented detection, tracking, export, quantization, and deplo...
A novel threat is unveiled in which attackers steer the RAG system's response by injecting malicious passages into its knowledge base, enabling the attacker to steer the response without altering the user input or modifying the RAG weights.

This work revisits schema linking when using the latest generation of large language models (LLMs) and finds empirically that newer models are adept at utilizing relevant schema elements during generation even in the presence of large numbers of irrelevant ones.

Empirically, PRISM reduces the end-to-end time for data selection and model tuning to just 30% of conventional pipelines, and achieves this efficiency while simultaneously enhancing performance, surpassing models fine-tuned on the full dataset across eight multimodal and three language understanding benchmarks.
