Spatiotemporal Topological Combs for Robust High-Dimensional Information Transmission

Sculpting light across its independent degrees of freedom-from orbital angular momentum to the discrete wavelengths of optical frequency combs-has unlocked vast communication bandwidth by enabling massively parallel information channels. However, the Shannon-Hartley theorem sets a hard limit by tying channel capacity to the trade-off between SNR and rate, a central challenge in communication. Inspired by lock-in amplification in electronics, we encode data on THz optical burst carriers so the signal resides beyond the conventional noise band, yielding exceptional robustness. By leveraging a programmable all-degree-of-freedom (All-DoF) modulator, we generate a spatiotemporal topological comb (ST-Comb) that structures light into a vast, highentropy state space for high-dimensional information encoding. Crucially, we find that the associated topological winding number is preserved under diverse perturbations, ensuring stable information encoding and retrieval. This paradigm illustrates how structured light can simultaneously expand channel dimensionality and maintain robustness, charting a pathway to chip-scale, reconfigurable photonic platforms for the PHz era, while also opening previously inaccessible regimes of light-matter interaction.

Transfer Learning in Vocal Education: Technical Evaluation of Limited Samples Describing Mezzo-soprano

Vocal education in the music field is difficult to quantify due to the individual differences in singers' voices and the different quantitative criteria of singing techniques. Deep learning has great potential to be applied in music education due to its efficiency to handle complex data and perform quantitative analysis. However, accurate evaluations with limited samples over rare vocal types, such as Mezzo-soprano, requires extensive well-annotated data support using deep learning models. In order to attain the objective, we perform transfer learning by employing deep learning models pre-trained on the ImageNet and Urbansound8k datasets for the improvement on the precision of vocal technique evaluation. Furthermore, we tackle the problem of the lack of samples by constructing a dedicated dataset, the Mezzo-soprano Vocal Set (MVS), for vocal technique assessment. Our experimental results indicate that transfer learning increases the overall accuracy (OAcc) of all models by an average of 8.3%, with the highest accuracy at 94.2%. We not only provide a novel approach to evaluating Mezzo-soprano vocal techniques but also introduce a new quantitative assessment method for music education.
