Large language models (LLMs) are trained on massive, publicly available text datasets comprising trillions of tokens, enabling them to excel at general language tasks like next-token prediction. However, LLMs often struggle with domain-specific prompts, exhibiting reduced accuracy or generating inaccurate information (hallucinations). This is because they lack sufficient subject matter expertise. Two primary approaches exist to address this limitation for augmenting LLMs knowledge: Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and fine-tuning. This presentation focuses on fine-tuning smaller LLMs with domain-specific instruct datasets using the LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation) technique on Gaudi hardware. We will leverage publicly available LLMs and datasets from the Hugging Face Hub for this demonstration. Though it is possible to fine tune LLMs with plain text data - sourced from documents, articles, and other materials.

1. Many migratory birds now reach their Arctic breeding grounds earlier in order to keep pace with advancing springs and shifting nutrient peaks, either by departing earlier from non-breeding grounds or by travelling faster. For dark-bellied brent geese, there is limited potential to travel faster, as their migration to the Siberian breeding grounds is already among the fastest of Arctic geese and swans. Earlier departure would require reaching departure body mass earlier, either through a faster accumulation of energy stores during spring staging or via adjustments earlier in the annual cycle. 2. We examined long-term shifts in spring staging phenology and changes in winter and spring body mass trajectories of brent geese at the population level, with particular emphasis on the effects of winter temperature on body mass and spring body mass on departure timing. 3. We used more than five decades of body mass measurements from individuals caught in the United Kingdom and France, and in the Dutch Wadden Sea to reconstruct changes in spring and winter mass trajectories, respectively. These data were combined with over five decades of migration counts in the Netherlands and more than two decades of counts in Denmark to quantify changes in spring staging phenology. 4. We found that brent geese have not shifted their spring arrival in the Wadden Sea but have advanced departure timing. Furthermore, brent geese were heavier during and after milder winters, and have changed mass trajectories over recent decades. They no longer lose mass during winter and the second spring staging phase, and fuelling rates in the first spring staging phase have declined. Annual variation in body mass was not related to annual departure timing. 5. These results suggest that milder winters have relaxed energetic constraints and improved body condition in brent geese throughout the non-breeding season. Our findings highlight the importance of considering the full annual cycle when assessing how animals with limited capacity to adjust migration timing or speed respond to global change.

Structured, speaker-attributed corpus of all German Bundestag plenary session transcripts ( Plenarprotokolle ) from the first legislative period to the present (WP01-WP21, September 1949 - April 2026). Every attributed speech is extracted from the official PDFs published by the Deutscher Bundestag under open data policy and linked to the speaker's name, parliamentary role, party affiliation, and gender. Scale: 4,611 sessions · 1,033,723 speeches · 4,205 identified MdBs · 76 years of parliamentary debate Dataset files speeches.parquet - one row per attributed speech: speaker name, role, party, gender, stammdaten_id, full German text (~1 GB) persons.parquet - one row per MdB: cross-session identity linking all name variants via stammdaten_id; canonical name, birth date, career span, total speeches. Use this - not speakers.parquet - for person-level analysis sessions.parquet - one row per plenary session: date, city, Wahlperiode, source PDF hash, extraction engine speakers.parquet - name-string index: one row per unique name string as extracted from the transcripts. Useful for understanding extraction quality; not suitable for person-level aggregation (the same politician often appears under several name variants across sessions) parties.csv - reference table of 31 German parliamentary parties, 1949-present speeches.csv.gz - CSV fallback for Stata and Excel users (same columns as speeches.parquet) datapackage.json - Frictionless Data schema with column descriptions and foreign key constraints Cross-session identity The same politician often appears under different name strings across sessions (e.g. "Schmidt", "Dr. Schmidt", "Frau Dr. Schmidt"). Cross-session person linkage is provided via stammdaten_id , matched against the official Bundestag Stammdaten biographical XML. The persons.parquet table aggregates all name variants for the same MdB into one row with correctly summed speech counts, career span, and birth date. Coverage: ~98.5% of speeches are linked to a stammdaten_id; the remaining ~1.5% are ambiguous surname-only attributions or speakers not in the Stammdaten. Coverage and sources Source PDFs are the official Stenografische Berichte downloaded from the Bundestag open-data portal (bundestag.de). Party-share normalisation in the corpus statistics uses official seat counts per Wahlperiode sourced from the Federal Returning Officer (Bundeswahlleiter, bundeswahlleiter.de). Two PDF generations are covered: scanned and OCR'd documents (WP01-WP09, Bonn era, 1949-1987) and born-digital documents (WP10-WP21, 1987-present). The engine column in sessions.parquet flags whether pdftotext (born-digital) or pdfminer (OCR fallback) was used; this is the primary data-quality indicator for NLP use. Speaker attribution Each speech is attributed using four patterns extracted from the transcript format: presiding officers (Präsident/in, Vizepräsident/in), regular members (name + party), government officials (name + Bundeskanzler/in, Bundesminister/in, etc.), and procedural roles (Berichterstatter/in, etc.). The party field is null for ~60% of speeches - this is expected, as presiding officers and ministers are not identified by party in the transcript. Gender annotation & distribution Gender is derived by matching speaker names against the official Bundestag Stammdaten biographical XML (all MdBs since 1949), with fallbacks for role title, honorific prefix, manually researched overrides, and a gender_guesser first-name heuristic. The gender_source column distinguishes stammdaten (authoritative, 83%), role_title (gendered job title in attribution, 6.4%), title_prefix (Frau/Herr honorific, 0.5%), manual (historically researched, 2.9%), and inferred (name-based heuristic, 4.7%). Gender distribution: Female 26.6% · Male 73.4% · Unknown 0.0%. Data quality All speeches pass automated validation: zero null speaker names, zero sequence gaps, zero CID artefacts, zero party-misclassified-as-Bundesland errors. Eight sessions with conflicting source PDFs were deduplicated (first lexicographic occurrence retained). 252 non-person names incorrectly accepted by the parser (table headers, legislative terms, agenda fragments) are excluded at build time via a curated exclusion list. OCR sessions (WP01-WP09) may contain Unicode replacement characters (U+FFFD); the engine field identifies these sessions. Licence CC BY 4.0. The underlying Plenarprotokolle are official government documents of the Deutscher Bundestag and are in the public domain.

Intrusion-detection research on Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) remains bottlenecked by the scarcity of labelled, protocol-aware flow datasets. Existing machine-learning IDS benchmarks are overwhelmingly IPv4-centric, and the few IPv6 corpora that have been released target narrow attack families or rely on small academic testbeds that cannot be re-created by third parties. We present IPv6-CyberBench, a reproducible eight-phase pipeline that constructs a large, protocol-aware translated-flow corpus by harmonising CIC-IDS-2017, CIC-IDS-2018 and CIC-DDoS-2019, applying deterministic IPv4→IPv6 address translation (6to4, NAT64, Teredo, EUI-64), synthesising 27 IPv6-specific flow features grouped in six protocol families, enforcing nineteen RFC-derived constraint categories together with temporal address dynamics, and rebalancing the long-tailed class distribution with a feature-group-conditioned per-class Wasserstein-GAN-GP augmenter and a SMOTE-KDE fallback selected per class by a formal decision rule. We scope the contribution honestly: because the seed corpora are IPv4 captures, the resulting 2,285,774-record benchmark is a translated-flow corpus suitable for training and evaluating flow-level IPv6 IDS classifiers on flooding, brute-force, scan, web-attack and infiltration traffic under IPv6 protocol-header semantics, and for studying IPv6-specific feature engineering and address dynamics in a reproducible setting. It is not a substitute for protocol-native IPv6 attack capture, and we explicitly exclude ICMPv6 Neighbour-Discovery flooding, SEND flooding, NDP exhaustion and extension-header covert-tunnelling from the threat model. The benchmark is evaluated on four axes - fidelity (Kolmogorov-Smirnov, MMD, Fréchet feature distance), utility (stratified 5×5 nested cross-validation over six classifier families including CNN-LSTM and LightGBM), privacy (Shokri-style membership-inference advantage AUC), and external fidelity against a 24 h anonymised CAIDA IPv6 trace (equinix-chicago, US backbone) and a MAWI samplepoint-F trace (WIDE backbone, Tokyo, Japan). The full pipeline, the hyper-parameter manifest, the RFC-constraint manifest, the reproduction scripts, and the 2,285,774-record benchmark are released unconditionally on Zenodo under CC BY 4.0; the dataset and pipeline are openly available at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.19503446 (CC BY 4.0).

This dataset provides a fixed benchmark dataset for stellar atmospheric parameter estimation from Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 12 (SDSS DR12) optical stellar spectra. The dataset is organized into three predefined Parquet splits: 30,000 spectra for training, 5,000 spectra for validation, and 15,000 spectra for testing. Each row corresponds to one SDSS stellar spectrum and includes raw spectral arrays, fixed-length processed spectral features, source identifiers, basic metadata, and catalog stellar-parameter labels with their associated uncertainties. The supervised regression targets are the adopted catalog stellar atmospheric parameters: effective temperature (Teff, in K), metallicity ([Fe/H], in dex), and surface gravity (log g, in dex). The dataset also includes relevant observational and catalog information such as SDSS plate, MJD, fiber identifier, sky coordinates, signal-to-noise ratio, adopted radial velocity, raw flux, logarithmic wavelength grid, inverse variance, pixel mask, and processed flux features. This release is intended to support machine-learning research on stellar spectroscopy, including regression models for atmospheric parameter estimation, benchmark comparisons, uncertainty-aware evaluation, and experiments using either processed fixed-length spectra or native observed-frame spectral arrays.

Description This deposit contains annual, municipality-level datasets derived from the Brazilian Primary Health Care Information System (SISAB). The files combine two complementary data sources: Public SISAB Saúde report downloads from the Atendimento/Visita production report. CID-10 and CIAP-2 attendance data obtained from SISAB through requests under the Brazilian Access to Information Law (Lei de Acesso à Informação, LAI). The datasets are organized as tidy annual files in CSV (Zipped) and Parquet format. They are intended to support reproducible analysis of primary care production, procedures, evaluated problems/conditions, and CID/CIAP-coded attendances across Brazilian municipalities. The public SISAB report datasets are stratified by competence month, state, municipality, DataSUS age group, SISAB sex category, and the selected report category. For each competence month and report type, the extraction combines 36 stratified SISAB downloads: 18 age groups by 2 sex values. Monthly files are merged into yearly files, completing missing combinations of observed competence, municipality, age group, sex, and category with valor = 0 . The LAI dataset contains yearly CID-10 and CIAP-2 attendance counts by competence month, municipality, code type, and code. When multiple valid LAI files cover the same competence, the processing pipeline selects the file with the largest number of data rows, using file size and request folder order as tie-breakers. Provenance columns identify the selected LAI request and source file. Variables SISAB Saúde Produção Columns: competencia : competence month in YYYYMM format. uf : Brazilian state abbreviation. ibge : municipality IBGE code. municipio : municipality name. faixa_etaria : Age group. sexo : SISAB sex category, Masculino or Feminino . tipo_producao : production type from the SISAB report. valor : count reported by SISAB.

Methods The public SISAB report files were generated with the sisab_scrapper processing pipeline. For each month, report type, age group, and sex value, the pipeline downloads the all-Brazil municipality report from SISAB, validates the returned CSV, preserves raw cache files for resumable runs, and writes a sorted monthly tidy dataset. The yearly merge validates required columns, expected age groups, expected sex values, category values, and month gaps unless explicitly allowed. The CID/CIAP files were generated with the sisab_lai processing pipeline. The pipeline imports CSV files received through LAI requests, detects the real CSV header after any SQL*Plus preamble, validates candidate files, resolves overlapping requests by competence, standardizes old and new schemas into one tidy table, and exports annual CSV and Parquet files together with audit reports. Sources - SISAB public reports, Ministry of Health, Brazil: https://sisab.saude.gov.br/ - SISAB LAI files obtained through Brazilian Access to Information Law requests. - Processing code for public SISAB report data: https://github.com/rfsaldanha/sisab_scrapper - Processing code for LAI CID/CIAP data: https://github.com/rfsaldanha/sisab_lai Notes - Counts are aggregated administrative records and should be interpreted in light of SISAB reporting practices, data quality, and changes in municipal reporting coverage. - Municipality boundaries, names, and coding practices may vary over time. - Public SISAB report datasets are completed with zero values only for combinations defined by observed municipalities, observed competencies, all expected age groups, both expected sex values, and observed report categories within the yearly merge. - LAI CID/CIAP data preserves selected source-file provenance through source_request and source_file . - This deposit corresponds to an individual year. Deposits for other years are published separately.

The data were used to create a connectivity model for the common blackbird in Angers. The 68 point observations provided information on the land cover types used as a possible resource by the common blackbird. The presence/absence of flying blackbirds across 190 streets in Munich was used to derive the resistance of the urban landscape to the movement of common blackbirds in a landscape connectivity model. For the point observations, the presence and absence of the common blackbird was visually and acoustically confirmed after 5 minutes of observations within a radius of 25 m. Movement presence/absence was observed along 50 m street transects. Street transects were observed for 9 minutes, and the presence or absence of common blackbirds crossing this street was recorded. The observation points and movement-proxy data were selected along gradients of greenness and traffic density. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FILE LIST -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. movement_proxy.shp Site-level data containing presence and absence of common blackbirds crossing the sampled streets, as well as covariates such as the number of pedestrians passing during the sampling period, geographic information, information on the weather, time of sampling, pseudonomized observer.

Economic losses caused by extreme climate are not confined to the locations where events occur, but can propagate across regions through physical and economic linkages. Yet existing climate-impact assessment methods remain poorly suited to tracing how shocks spread across space and reshape the geography of economic loss. Here we develop a mechanistically informed multi-scale spatiotemporal autoregressive graph neural network model to quantify spatially cascading climate impacts. The model couples scale-specific, physically structured spatiotemporal autoregressive processes through an adaptive gating mechanism, allowing heterogeneous cross-scale interactions to be learned from data. Model estimation is achieved through tailored graph convolutional neural networks that are mathematically equivalent to spatiotemporal autoregressive models, enabling scalability while preserving transparent parameter interpretation. Monte Carlo simulation experiments show that the model accurately recovers true parameters and distinguishes between scale-dependent processes. Applying the framework to extreme precipitation, we find that large-scale upwind-to-downwind cascades driven by atmospheric circulations dominate aggregated economic losses. A one-standard-deviation increase in log extreme precipitation is associated with a 0.19 percentage-point decline in economic growth rate at the large scale, with 62.3% of the loss arising from spatial cascades. These findings highlight the need for transboundary risk governance that incorporates spatial cascading into climate-extremes monitoring and early-warning.
