Generative methods have recently gained traction in biological and chemical named entity recognition for their ability to overcome tagging limitations and better capture entity-rich contexts. However, under a few-shot environment, they struggle with the scarcity of annotated data and the structural complexity of biological and chemical entities—particularly nested and discontinuous ones—leading to incorrect recognition and error propagation during generation. To address these challenges, we propose SCoNE, a Self-Correcting and Noise-Augmented Method for Complex Biological and Chemical Named Entity Recognition. Specifically, we introduce a Noise Augmentation Module to enhance training diversity and guide the model to better learn complex entity structures. Besides, we design a Confidence-based Self-Correction Module that identifies low-confidence outputs and revises them to improve generation robustness. Benefiting from these designs, our method outperforms the baselines by 1.80 and 2.73 F1-score on the CHEMDNER and microbial ecology dataset Florilege, highlighting its effectiveness in biological and chemical named entity recognition.

Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) exhibit powerful generative capabilities but frequently produce hallucinations that compromise output reliability. Fine tuning on annotated data devoid of hallucinations offers the most direct solution, while its high computational cost motivates recent representation-based methods, which focus on mitigating hallucinatory components within hidden representations. Though efficient, we empirically observe that these methods degrade general generation capacity due to incomplete extraction of hallucination components and non-selective parameter updates. To address these limitations, we propose MPD, a dual-stage framework for mitigating hallucinations without performance degradation. Specifically, our MPD relies on two essential factors: (1) semantic-aware component disentanglement to extract pure hallucination components, and (2) interpretable parameter updates that selectively modify parameters most relevant to hallucination. Extensive experiments demonstrate that MPD achieves state-of-the-art performance, reducing hallucinations by 23.4% while maintaining 97.4% of general generative capability as evaluated on LLaVA-Bench and MME, with no additional computational cost.

In recent years, memes combining image and text have been widely used in social media, and memes are one of the most popular types of content used in online disinformation campaigns. In this paper, our study on the detection of persuasion techniques in texts and images in SemEval-2021 Task 6 is summarized. For propaganda technology detection in text, we propose a combination model of both ALBERT and Text CNN for text classification, as well as a BERT-based multi-task sequence labeling model for propaganda technology coverage span detection. For the meme classification task involved in text understanding and visual feature extraction, we designed a parallel channel model divided into text and image channels. Our method achieved a good performance on subtasks 1 and 3. The micro F1-scores of 0.492, 0.091, and 0.446 achieved on the test sets of the three subtasks ranked 12th, 7th, and 11th, respectively, and all are higher than the baseline model.
