Abstract: Digital twins are virtual representations of physical assets that remain continuously synchronized with their real-world counterparts. This paper focuses on \emph{adaptive digital twins}—models that incorporate online learning mechanisms to update their states and parameters in real time. We present a rigorous mathematical framework for adaptive digital twins, including formal definitions and data-driven update mechanisms. A theoretical convergence analysis establishes conditions under which the twin's state asymptotically tracks the physical system. We further explore theoretical performance limits, analyzing the effects of model uncertainties, noise, and computational constraints on accuracy. The paper follows academic best practices, providing detailed pseudocode for the adaptation algorithm, convergence proofs via Lyapunov stability theory, and supporting figures and tables. Our results show that, with proper design, adaptive digital twins can achieve stable and provably convergent tracking, ensuring reliable deployment in complex cyber-physical systems.

Abstract: The Model Context Protocol (MCP), recently introduced by Anthropic, proposes a standardized framework for integrating large language models (LLMs) with dynamic external systems. This survey reviews the foundational architecture of MCP, including its client-server model, standardized messaging protocols, dynamic tool discovery, and security mechanisms, against the backdrop of current, fragmented API solutions. Although the protocol promises enhanced interoperability and scalability for Agentic AI systems, data supporting its long-term performance remains limited. MCP’s design is critically evaluated, potential applications in domains such as finance, healthcare, and customer service are discussed, and the key challenges are outlined. This work aims to inform researchers and practitioners of MCP’s potential benefits and its present limitations in the evolving AI integration landscape.

Abstract: This is break direction on oxygen sources and conveyance methodologies for COVID-19 treatment. It has been adjusted from WHO and UNICEF's specialized details and direction for oxygen treatment gadgets, which is important for the WHO clinical gadget specialized arrangement, 1 and depends on current information on the circumstance in China and different nations where cases have been distinguished. This direction is proposed for wellbeing office chairmen, clinical leaders, acquisition officials, arranging officials, biomedical architects, foundation engineers and strategy producers. It portrays how to: measure oxygen interest, to distinguish oxygen sources that are accessible, and select suitable flood sources to best react to COVID-19 patients' requirements, particularly in low-and-center pay nations. WHO will refresh these suggestions as new data opens up. Coronavirus pandemic spurred fake interest for oxygen gas chambers for clinical use - both at emergency clinics and inquisitively, for home use by patients. A few patients and surprisingly sound people investigate the conceivable outcomes and likely benefits of utilizing oxygen from chambers for private utilization. Be that as it may, this isn't continuously protected, and sufficient safety measures are to be taken, bombing which there can be fatalities. This paper investigates the significance of keeping up satisfactory degrees of oxygen levels appropriate for human utilization.

Abstract: In this paper we propose a novel self-supervised approach of keywords and keyphrases retrieval and extraction by an end-to-end deep learning approach, which is trained by contextually self-labelled corpus. Our proposed approach is novel to use contextual and semantic features to extract the keywords and has outperformed the state of the art. Through the experiment the proposed approach has been proved to be better in both semantic meaning and quality than the existing popular algorithms of keyword extraction. In addition, we propose to use contextual features from bidirectional transformers to automatically label short-sentence corpus with keywords and keyphrases to build the ground truth. This process avoids the human time to label the keywords and do not need any prior knowledge. To the best of our knowledge, our published dataset in this paper is a fine domain-independent corpus of short sentences with labelled keywords and keyphrases in the NLP community.

Abstract: Recursive self-improvement (RSI) seeks to turn gains in an AI system into a stronger capacity to produce subsequent gains. Foundation models make parts of this process practical through generated training data, program revision and automated experimentation, but repeated optimization alone does not establish recursive improvement. This survey organizes the field around two overlapping goals: automated design of AI infrastructure, and repair and optimization of existing systems. We relate these goals to AutoML, meta-learning and program search, and formulate their objectives alongside criteria for task gains, retained capabilities and improved update procedures. A common account of update targets, feedback, inheritance and external control connects self-training, memory and skills, agent design, editable improvers and automated research. We synthesize methods by shared mechanisms and compare their evidence under independent testing, resource controls, transfer probes and multi-round evaluation. Existing studies show that systems can retain useful changes and, in limited settings, improve how they produce subsequent updates. They do not yet establish unrestricted or reliably accelerating self-improvement. We identify feedback quality, interacting updates and independent validation as central constraints, and develop testable directions for more reliable, transferable improvement loops.

Abstract: The latest methods based on deep learning have achieved amazing results regarding the complex work of inpainting large missing areas in an image. This type of method generally attempts to generate one single "optimal" inpainting result, ignoring many other plausible results. However, considering the uncertainty of the inpainting task, one sole result can hardly be regarded as a desired regeneration of the missing area. In view of this weakness, which is related to the design of the previous algorithms, we propose a novel deep generative model equipped with a brand new style extractor which can extract the style noise (a latent vector) from the ground truth image. Once obtained, the extracted style noise and the ground truth image are both input into the generator. We also craft a consistency loss that guides the generated image to approximate the ground truth. Meanwhile, the same extractor captures the style noise from the generated image, which is forced to approach the input noise according to the consistency loss. After iterations, our generator is able to learn the styles corresponding to multiple sets of noise. The proposed model can generate a (sufficiently large) number of inpainting results consistent with the context semantics of the image. Moreover, we check the effectiveness of our model on three databases, i.e., CelebA, Agricultural Disease, and MauFlex. Compared to state-of-the-art inpainting methods, this model is able to offer desirable inpainting results with both a better quality and higher diversity. The code and model will be made available on https://github.com/vivitsai/SEGAN.

The present study constitutes an early exploration of the Llama 2 pre-trained model, holding promise as a foundational basis for forthcoming research investigations.

Abstract: The Covid-19 also known as the Coronavirus is a viral disease from the SARS-CoV-2 family of virus, as at December 2019 the first case of this virus infection was identified at Wuhan, China, this seemingly isolated case soon became a global pandemic, whose effect was felt globally which also had colossal effects on both health, economic and politics . As at the time of this research about 4.5 million people have died of the Coronavirus and over 215 million people already infected by it. This pandemic stood out not just for its scale but for how social media was a major contribution to its spread as well as to curbing it. The power of social media was used to spread misinformation as well as to spread awareness on the subject, with both having massive impact on the people. In this paper we will be running a sentimental analysis on twitter under the keyword “Covid-19 and Coronavirus”, twitter is a powerful social media tool that is known for its ability to keep trends in the form of tweets, we will be drawing correlations between the peaks of tweet with the peak of infection. We will also be analyzing to know what the impact of these tweets are having on the rate of the infection and vice versa. We will also be analyzing what people are tweeting most about, what are the talking points, comparing both real time and past tweets with real time infection and death rates using deep different learning methods to access what information can be derived from it.

Abstract: The discovery of a simple numerical formula for the projection of all the atomic mass of life-sustaining CONHSP bioatoms leads to the emergence of a set of Nested CODES unifying all the biological, genetic and genomic components by unifying them from bioatoms up to 'to whole genomes. In particular, we demonstrate the existence of a digital meta-code common to the three languages ​​of biology that are RNA, DNA and amino acid sequences. Through this meta-code, genomic and proteomic images appear almost analogous and correlated. The analysis of the textures of these images then reveals a binary code as well as an undulatory code whose analysis on the human genome makes it possible to predict the alternating bands constituting the cariotypes of the chromosomes. The application of these codes to perspectives in astrobiology, in Cancers basic research and the emergence of binary codes and regions of local stability (voting process), whose fractal nature we demonstrate, is illustrated.

Abstract: Today, LLMs are not good at personalization providing recommendation. They advise physicians and financial advisors to ask professionals in respective fields for help, even having user information available. Answering questions of software professionals, LLM needs to deliver in-depth answers with codes or algorithms, whereas for professionals in other fields would need definitions and main concepts. The intent of this chapter is to make LLM answer tailored to the needs of users, taking into account available information about them. To do that, we need to generalize available information about a person like her health record, maintaining the privacy of this person. We rely on meta-learning techniques to design a LLM prompt to produce a personalization prompt to obtain a suitable relevant information. Such “meta-prompt” is produced by generalization operation applied to available documents for the user. These documents need to be de-identified so that they are sufficient for personalization on one hand and will maintain user privacy on the other hand. The second neuro-symbolic technique to support personalization is abductive reasoning, acting in parallel to LLM fine-tuning. Traditional recommendation and personalization techniques as well as modern, deep learning – based are presented, and the comparison is drawn to the proposed approach. We also share the evaluation and comparative analyses of these approaches. We consider an example for how to build personalization LLM systems coming from Langchain platform. We will explore how to construct chains to form a personalization profile for a user and apply it to user search and recommendation requests.
