A researcher can infer mathematical expressions of functions quickly by using his professional knowledge (called Prior Knowledge). But the results he finds may be biased and restricted to his research field due to limitation of his knowledge. In contrast, Genetic Programming method can discover fitted mathematical expressions from the huge search space through running evolutionary algorithms. And its results can be generalized to accommodate different fields of knowledge. However, sinceGPhas to search a huge space, its speed of finding the results is rather slow. Therefore, in this paper, a framework of connection between Prior Formula Knowledge andGP(PFK-GP) is proposed to reduce the space ofGPsearching. The PFK is built based on the Deep Belief Network (DBN) which can identify candidate formulas that are consistent with the features of experimental data. By using these candidate formulas as the seed of a randomly generated population,PFK-GPfinds the right formulas quickly by exploring the search space of data features. We have comparedPFK-GPwith ParetoGPon regression of eight benchmark problems. The experimental results confirm that thePFK-GPcan reduce the search space and obtain the significant improvement in the quality of SR.

Large language models (LLMs) hold the potential to significantly enhance data annotation for free-text healthcare records. However, ensuring their accuracy and reliability is critical, especially in clinical research applications requiring the extraction of patient characteristics. This study introduces a novel evaluation framework based on Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) and the Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) technique, designed to benchmark LLMs on their annotation quality. The framework defines ten evaluation metrics across key criteria such as age, gender, BMI, disease presence, and blood markers (e.g., white blood count and platelets). Using this methodology, we assessed leading open source and commercial LLMs, achieving accuracy scores of 0.59, 1, 0.84, 0.56, and 0.92, respectively, for the specified criteria. Our work not only provides a rigorous framework for evaluating LLM capabilities in healthcare data annotation but also highlights their current performance limitations and strengths. By offering a comprehensive benchmarking approach, we aim to support responsible adoption and decision-making in healthcare applications.
