A Parity-Consistent Decomposition Method for the Weight Distribution of Pre-Transformed Polar Codes

This paper introduces an efficient algorithm based on the Parity-Consistent Decomposition (PCD) method to determine the WD of pre-transformed polar codes. First, to address the bit dependencies introduced by the pre-transformation matrix, we propose an iterative algorithm to construct an \emph{Expanded Information Set}. By expanding the information bits within this set into 0s and 1s, we eliminate the correlations among information bits, thereby enabling the recursive calculation of the Hamming weight distribution using the \emph{PCD method}. Second, to further reduce computational complexity, we establish the theory of equivalence classes for pre-transformed polar codes. Codes within the same equivalence class share an identical weight distribution but correspond to different \emph{Expanded Information Set} sizes. By selecting the pre-transformation matrix that minimizes the \emph{Expanded Information Set} size within an equivalence class, we optimize the computation process. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed method significantly reduces computational complexity compared to existing deterministic algorithms.

ORBIT -- Open Recommendation Benchmark for Reproducible Research with Hidden Tests

Recommender systems are among the most impactful AI applications, interacting with billions of users every day, guiding them to relevant products, services, or information tailored to their preferences. However, the research and development of recommender systems are hindered by existing datasets that fail to capture realistic user behaviors and inconsistent evaluation settings that lead to ambiguous conclusions. This paper introduces the Open Recommendation Benchmark for Reproducible Research with HIdden Tests (ORBIT), a unified benchmark for consistent and realistic evaluation of recommendation models. ORBIT offers a standardized evaluation framework of public datasets with reproducible splits and transparent settings for its public leaderboard. Additionally, ORBIT introduces a new webpage recommendation task, ClueWeb-Reco, featuring web browsing sequences from 87 million public, high-quality webpages. ClueWeb-Reco is a synthetic dataset derived from real, user-consented, and privacy-guaranteed browsing data. It aligns with modern recommendation scenarios and is reserved as the hidden test part of our leaderboard to challenge recommendation models' generalization ability. ORBIT measures 12 representative recommendation models on its public benchmark and introduces a prompted LLM baseline on the ClueWeb-Reco hidden test. Our benchmark results reflect general improvements of recommender systems on the public datasets, with variable individual performances. The results on the hidden test reveal the limitations of existing approaches in large-scale webpage recommendation and highlight the potential for improvements with LLM integrations. ORBIT benchmark, leaderboard, and codebase are available at https://www.open-reco-bench.ai.

NeRFCom: Feature Transform Coding Meets Neural Radiance Field for Free-View 3D Scene Semantic Transmission

We introduce NeRFCom, a novel communication system designed for end-to-end 3D scene transmission. Compared to traditional systems relying on handcrafted NeRF semantic feature decomposition for compression and well-adaptive channel coding for transmission error correction, our NeRFCom employs a nonlinear transform and learned probabilistic models, enabling flexible variable-rate joint source-channel coding and efficient bandwidth allocation aligned with the NeRF semantic feature's different contribution to the 3D scene synthesis fidelity. Experimental results demonstrate that NeRFCom achieves free-view 3D scene efficient transmission while maintaining robustness under adverse channel conditions.

ddtlcm: An R package for overcoming weak separation in Bayesian latent class analysis via tree-regularization

Traditional applications of latent class models (LCMs) often focus on scenarios where a set of unobserved classes are well-defined and easily distinguishable. However, in numerous real-world applications, these classes are weakly separated and difficult to distinguish, creating significant numerical challenges. To address these issues, we have developed an R package ddtlcm that provides comprehensive analysis and visualization tools designed to enhance the robustness and interpretability of LCMs in the presence of weak class separation, particularly useful for small sample sizes. This package implements a tree-regularized Bayesian LCM that leverages statistical strength between latent classes to make better estimates using limited data. A Shiny app has also been developed to improve user interactivity. In this paper, we showcase a typical analysis pipeline with simulated data using ddtlcm. All software has been made publicly available on CRAN and GitHub.

Generalized Polarization Transform: A Novel Coded Transmission Paradigm

For the upcoming 6G wireless networks, a new wave of applications and services will demand ultra-high data rates and reliability. To this end, future wireless systems are expected to pave the way for entirely new fundamental air interface technologies to attain a breakthrough in spectrum efficiency (SE). This article discusses a new paradigm, named generalized polarization transform (GPT), to achieve an integrated design of coding, modulation, multi-antenna, multiple access, etc., in a real sense. The GPT enabled air interface develops far-reaching insights that the joint optimization of critical air interface ingredients can achieve remarkable gains on SE compared with the state-of-the-art module-stacking design.

Performance and Construction of Polar Codes: The Perspective of Bit Error Probability

Most existing works of polar codes focus on the analysis of block error probability. However, in many scenarios, bit error probability is also important for evaluating the performance of channel codes. In this paper, we establish a new framework to analyze the bit error probability of polar codes. Specifically, by revisiting the error event of bit-channel, we first introduce the conditional bit error probability as a metric to evaluate the reliability of bit-channel for both systematic and non-systematic polar codes. Guided by the concept of polar subcode, we then derive an upper bound on the conditional bit error probability of each bit-channel, and accordingly, an upper bound on the bit error probability of polar codes. Based on these, two types of construction metrics aiming at minimizing the bit error probability of polar codes are proposed, which are of linear computational complexity and explicit forms. Simulation results show that the polar codes constructed by the proposed methods can outperform those constructed by the conventional methods.
