BibTeX:学术写作效率的标准化基石
BibTeX 是一种用于文献引用的格式。它被广泛用于学术出版,尤其是在计算机科学领域。BibTeX 文件包含条目,每个条目代表一篇出版物(如书籍、期刊文章、会议论文等),并且每个条目都具有一个唯一的键,用于在文档中引用。
BibTeX 的核心价值在于其标准化和自动化引用管理的能力。通过将文献信息结构化存储,它极大地简化了作者在撰写学术论文时处理参考文献的繁琐过程。作者只需在文档中插入对特定条目的引用键,BibTeX 工具就可以自动生成符合特定期刊或会议要求的格式化参考文献列表。
从战略上看,BibTeX 的普及推动了学术界在文献引用方面的标准化进程。它降低了跨学科、跨期刊的文献引用门槛,提高了学术交流的效率。对于研究者而言,熟练掌握 BibTeX 的使用,能够显著提升论文写作的效率和规范性,从而更专注于研究内容的本身。其持续的应用表明,在日益增长的学术产出中,高效、规范的文献管理工具依然是不可或缺的基础设施。
Beyond Sensor Data: Foundation Models of Behavioral Data from Wearables Improve Health Predictions
Wearable devices record physiological and behavioral signals that can improve health predictions. While foundation models are increasingly used for such predictions, they have been primarily applied to low-level sensor data, despite behavioral data often being more informative due to their alignment with physiologically relevant timescales and quantities. We develop foundation models of such behavioral signals using over 2.5B hours of wearable data from 162K individuals, systematically optimizing architectures and tokenization strategies for this unique dataset. Evaluated on 57 health-related tasks, our model shows strong performance across diverse real-world applications including individual-level classification and time-varying health state prediction. The model excels in behavior-driven tasks like sleep prediction, and improves further when combined with representations of raw sensor data. These results underscore the importance of tailoring foundation model design to wearables and demonstrate the potential to enable new health applications.
