Effective medical text retrieval requires both high accuracy and low latency. While LLM-based embedding models possess powerful retrieval capabilities, their prohibitive latency and high computational cost limit their application in real-time scenarios. Furthermore, the lack of comprehensive and high-fidelity benchmarks hinders progress in Chinese medical text retrieval. In this work, we introduce the **C**hinese **Med**ical **T**ext **E**mbedding **B**enchmark (**CMedTEB**), a benchmark spanning three kinds of practical embedding tasks: retrieval, reranking, and semantic textual similarity (STS). Distinct from purely automated datasets, CMedTEB is curated via a rigorous multi-LLM voting pipeline validated by clinical experts, ensuring gold-standard label quality while effectively mitigating annotation noise. On this foundation, we propose the **C**hinese Medical **A**symmetric **RE**triever (**CARE**), an asymmetric architecture that pairs a lightweight BERT-style encoder for online query encoding with a powerful LLM-based encoder for offline document encoding. However, optimizing such an asymmetric retriever with two structurally different encoders presents distinctive challenges. To address this, we introduce a novel two-stage training strategy that progressively bridges the query and document representations. Extensive experiments demonstrate that CARE surpasses state-of-the-art symmetric models on CMedTEB, achieving superior retrieval performance without increasing inference latency.

Since the release of ChatGPT, generative models have achieved tremendous success and become the de facto approach for various NLP tasks. However, its application in the field of input methods remains under-explored. Many neural network approaches have been applied to the construction of Chinese input method engines (IMEs). Previous research often assumed that the input pinyin was correct and focused on Pinyin-to-character (P2C) task, which significantly falls short of meeting users’ demands. Moreover, previous research could not leverage user feedback to optimize the model and provide personalized results. In this study, we propose a novel Generative Input paradigm named GeneInput. It uses prompts to handle all input scenarios and other intelligent auxiliary input functions, optimizing the model with user feedback. The results demonstrate that we have achieved state-of-the-art performance for the first time in the Full-mode Key-sequence to Characters task. GeneInput also includes RLHF-IME, a novel RLHF application framework for input method, that eliminates the need for manual ranking annotations and the performance surpasses GPT-4. Relevant resources have been open-sourced.

Part-of-Speech (POS) tagging for Twitter has received considerable attention in recent years. Because most POS tagging methods are based on supervised models, they usually require a large amount of labeled data for training. However, the existing labeled datasets for Twitter are much smaller than those for newswire text. Hence, to help POS tagging for Twitter, most domain adaptation methods try to leverage newswire datasets by learning the shared features between the two domains. However, from a linguistic perspective, Twitter users not only tend to mimic the formal expressions of traditional media, like news, but they also appear to be developing linguistically informal styles. Therefore, POS tagging for the formal Twitter context can be learned together with the newswire dataset, while POS tagging for the informal Twitter context should be learned separately. To achieve this task, in this work, we propose a hypernetwork-based method to generate different parameters to separately model contexts with different expression styles. Experimental results on three different datasets show that our approach achieves better performance than state-of-the-art methods in most cases.
