Composite Reward Design in PPO-Driven Adaptive Filtering

Model-free and reinforcement learning-based adaptive filtering methods are gaining traction for denoising in dynamic, non-stationary environments such as wireless signal channels, biomedical monitoring, and sensor networks. Traditional filters such as LMS, RLS, Wiener, and Kalman are often limited by assumptions of stationarity, the need for exact noise statistics, or fragile parameter tuning. This paper proposes an adaptive filtering framework using Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO), guided by a composite reward that balances SNR improvement, MSE reduction, and residual smoothness. We frame adaptive filtering as a Markov decision process and train a PPO agent to adjust filter coefficients directly in response to changing noise. Experiments on synthetic nonstationary signals with diverse noise types show that the PPO agent generalizes beyond its training distribution. Moreover, real-world analysis is made and evaluated on ECG recordings from the MIT-BIH Noise Stress Test Database corrupted by baseline wander, electrode motion, and muscle artifacts. The learned PPO policy achieves real-time inference and slightly outperforms strong classical baselines on ECG denoising. These results demonstrate the viability of policy-gradient reinforcement learning as a computationally efficient and flexible tool for adaptive filtering in nonlinear, time-varying dynamical systems.

Hybrid Meta-Learning Framework for Anomaly Forecasting in Nonlinear Dynamical Systems via Physics-Inspired Simulation and Deep Ensembles

We propose a hybrid meta-learning framework for forecasting and anomaly detection in nonlinear dynamical systems characterized by nonstationary and stochastic behavior. The approach integrates a physics-inspired simulator that captures nonlinear growth-relaxation dynamics with random perturbations, representative of many complex physical, industrial, and cyber-physical systems. We use CNN-LSTM architectures for spatio-temporal feature extraction, Variational Autoencoders (VAE) for unsupervised anomaly scoring, and Isolation Forests for residual-based outlier detection in addition to a Dual-Stage Attention Recurrent Neural Network (DA-RNN) for one-step forecasting on top of the generated simulation data. To create composite anomaly forecasts, these models are combined using a meta-learner that combines forecasting outputs, reconstruction errors, and residual scores. The hybrid ensemble performs better than standalone models in anomaly localization, generalization, and robustness to nonlinear deviations, according to simulation-based experiments. The framework provides a broad, data-driven approach to early defect identification and predictive monitoring in nonlinear systems, which may be applied to a variety of scenarios where complete physical models might not be accessible.

Class-Specific Data Augmentation: Bridging the Imbalance in Multiclass Breast Cancer Classification

Breast Cancer is the most common cancer among women, which is also visible in men, and accounts for more than 1 in 10 new cancer diagnoses each year. It is also the second most common cause of women who die from cancer. Hence, it necessitates early detection and tailored treatment. Early detection can provide appropriate and patient-based therapeutic schedules. Moreover, early detection can also provide the type of cyst. This paper employs class-level data augmentation, addressing the undersampled classes and raising their detection rate. This approach suggests two key components: class-level data augmentation on structure-preserving stain normalization techniques to hematoxylin and eosin-stained images and transformer-based ViTNet architecture via transfer learning for multiclass classification of breast cancer images. This merger enables categorizing breast cancer images with advanced image processing and deep learning as either benign or as one of four distinct malignant subtypes by focusing on class-level augmentation and catering to unique characteristics of each class with increasing precision of classification on undersampled classes, which leads to lower mortality rates associated with breast cancer. The paper aims to ease the duties of the medical specialist by operating multiclass classification and categorizing the image into benign or one of four different malignant types of breast cancers.
