Generative large language models (LLMs) have revolutionized the development of knowledge-based systems, enabling new possibilities in applications like ChatGPT, Bing, and Gemini. Two key strategies for domain adaptation in these systems are Domain-Specific Fine-Tuning (DFT) and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). In this study, we evaluate the performance of RAG and DFT on several LLM architectures, including GPT-J-6B, OPT-6.7B, LLaMA, and LLaMA-2. We use the ROUGE, BLEU, and METEOR scores to evaluate the performance of the models. We also measure the performance of the models with our own designed cosine similarity-based Coverage Score (CS). Our results, based on experiments across multiple datasets, show that RAG-based systems consistently outperform those fine-tuned with DFT. Specifically, RAG models outperform DFT by an average of 17% in ROUGE, 13% in BLEU, and 36% in CS. At the same time, DFT achieves only a modest advantage in METEOR, suggesting slightly better creative capabilities. We also highlight the challenges of integrating RAG with DFT, as such integration can lead to performance degradation. Furthermore, we propose a simplified RAG-based architecture that maximizes efficiency and reduces hallucination, underscoring the advantages of RAG in building reliable, domain-adapted knowledge systems.

Covert tobacco advertisements often raise regulatory measures. This paper presents that artificial intelligence, particularly deep learning, has great potential for detecting hidden advertising and allows unbiased, reproducible, and fair quantification of tobacco-related media content. We propose an integrated text and image processing model based on deep learning, generative methods, and human reinforcement, which can detect smoking cases in both textual and visual formats, even with little available training data. Our model can achieve 74% accuracy for images and 98% for text. Furthermore, our system integrates the possibility of expert intervention in the form of human reinforcement. Using the pre-trained multimodal, image, and text processing models available through deep learning makes it possible to detect smoking in different media even with few training data.

The efficiency of natural language processing has improved dramatically with the advent of machine learning models, particularly neural network-based solutions. However, some tasks are still challenging, especially when considering specific domains. This paper presents a model that can extract insights from customer reviews using machine learning methods integrated into a pipeline. For topic modeling, our composite model uses transformer-based neural networks designed for natural language processing, vector-embedding-based keyword extraction, and clustering. The elements of our model have been integrated and tailored to better meet the requirements of efficient information extraction and topic modeling of the extracted information for opinion mining. Our approach was validated and compared with other state-of-the-art methods using publicly available benchmark datasets. The results show that our system performs better than existing topic modeling and keyword extraction methods in this task.

Recent advancements in artificial intelligence have sparked interest in industrial agents capable of supporting analysts in regulated sectors, such as finance and healthcare, within tabular data workflows. A key capability for such systems is performing accurate arithmetic operations on structured data while ensuring sensitive information never leaves secure, on-premises environments. Here, we introduce an error-driven optimization framework for arithmetic reasoning that enhances a Code Generation Agent (CGA), specifically applied to on-premises small language models (SLMs). Through a systematic evaluation of a leading SLMs (Qwen3 4B, Gemma 3N E4B, Gemma3 4B), we find that while the base model exhibits fundamental limitations in arithmetic tasks, our proposed error-driven method, which clusters erroneous predictions to refine prompt-rules iteratively, dramatically improves performance, elevating the model’s accuracy to 66.45%. Our results suggest that developing reliable, interpretable, and industrially deployable AI assistants can be achieved not only through costly fine-tuning but also via systematic, error-driven prompt optimization, enabling small models to surpass larger language models (GPT-3.5 Turbo) in a privacy-compliant manner.

Introduction: Covert tobacco advertisements often raise regulatory measures. This paper presents that artificial intelligence, particularly deep learning, has great potential for detecting hidden advertising and allows unbiased, reproducible, and fair quantification of tobacco-related media content. Methods: We propose an integrated text and image processing model based on deep learning, generative methods, and human reinforcement, which can detect smoking cases in both textual and visual formats, even with little available training data. Results: Our model can achieve 74\% accuracy for images and 98\% for text. Furthermore, our system integrates the possibility of expert intervention in the form of human reinforcement. Conclusions: Using the pre-trained multimodal, image, and text processing models available through deep learning makes it possible to detect smoking in different media even with few training data.
