HGCN(O): A Self-Tuning GCN HyperModel Toolkit for Outcome Prediction in Event-Sequence Data

Outcome prediction from event sequence data requires effective use of information at two distinct semantic levels: attributes of individual events and attributes of the complete sequence. Although graph models can explicitly represent temporal relations between events, existing approaches commonly rely on predefined representations and manually configured architectures, with limited consideration of how event and sequence information should be incorporated at their corresponding GNN levels or how GNN models should be fitted to different datasets without manual tuning. We propose HGCN(O), an end to end self tuning graph toolkit for hierarchical information representation and automated model configuration. Its core T-GCN architecture processes event information at the node level and sequence information at the graph level, while O-GCN provides a one level reference for early integration of sequence attributes. TP-GCN and TE-GCN extend T-GCN with a pseudo informative duration embedding and a learned activity embedding, respectively. HGCN(O) integrates these architecture specific designs with hypermodel optimization to jointly determine model structure and training configuration. The core T-GCN achieves F1 scores of 1.0000 on two balanced benchmarks and a weighted F1 of 0.8639 on a highly imbalanced dataset, compared with 0.8318 for GAT and 0.8453 for TransformerConv. Prefix and ablation analyses further demonstrate its effectiveness for outcome prediction from incomplete sequences and quantify the contributions of temporal edge weights and graph level sequence attributes.

Fidelity Dynamics of a Jaynes--Cummings Qubit under Markovian and Non-Markovian Coupling Noise

We analytically investigate the fidelity dynamics of a Jaynes--Cummings qubit coupled to a single-mode cavity in the presence of stochastic fluctuations of the qubit--cavity coupling. Such fluctuations naturally arise in cavity- and circuit-QED platforms due to fabrication imperfections, control-field noise, mechanical vibrations, and environmental disturbances. Since the qubit--cavity coupling governs the rate of coherent energy and information exchange, understanding the effects of its fluctuations is essential for assessing the performance of quantum communication, quantum sensing, and quantum information-processing protocols. We consider both Gaussian white noise and Ornstein--Uhlenbeck noise with finite correlation time as models for the coupling fluctuations. Exploiting the closed dynamics within each excitation manifold, we derive exact analytical expressions for the noise-averaged density matrix and the fidelity relative to the ideal noiseless evolution. We show that the fidelity is determined by a single decoherence factor governed by the integrated noise correlation function, establishing a direct connection between microscopic coupling fluctuations and macroscopic coherence loss. In the white-noise limit, the fidelity decays exponentially, whereas finite noise correlation times produce nonexponential decay and slower coherence loss. We further show that the crossover between Markovian-like and non-Markovian regimes is controlled by the ratio of the noise correlation rate to the coherent coupling strength, and that decoherence increases with photon number because of the enhanced effective qubit--cavity coupling. These results provide a unified analytical framework for quantifying decoherence induced by stochastic coupling fluctuations and for evaluating the robustness of cavity-QED protocols under correlated noise.

Noise-Assisted Quantum Entanglement: Memory-Enhanced Coherence in Stochastic Jaynes-Cummings Dynamics

We investigate qubit entanglement dynamics in a two-qubit cavity system with stochastically fluctuating coupling strength, comparing white noise (Markovian) and Ornstein-Uhlenbeck noise (non-Markovian) processes. We analytically solve the system dynamics for both Fock and coherent cavity states and systematically characterize how initial qubit configurations affect entanglement generation and preservation. Our results reveal distinct dynamical regimes: in the Fock-state cavity, initial states in the single-excitation subspace generate robust qubit entanglement in decoherence-free subspaces, while initially entangled states in the double-excitation subspace exhibit inevitable decay without protective symmetries. For coherent cavities, we identify a critical photon-number threshold in the intermediate coherent-state amplitude regime where dynamics transition from low-frequency to high-frequency entanglement oscillations, while universal entanglement loss occurs at large amplitudes. Remarkable resilience against entanglement sudden death emerges under strong non-Markovian noise with long correlation times, where repeated revivals occur. These findings establish cavity photon statistics and environmental memory time as key control parameters for engineering qubit entanglement dynamics in qubit-cavity systems, revealing how system-environment correlations govern quantum information preservation.

Diffusion Precipitation Generation with Medium-range Weather Forecasting

Accurate daily precipitation forecasts are important for weather-sensitive decisions. Although recent Weather Foundation Models (WFMs) have achieved significant progress, they are trained on reanalysis data, which exhibit regional and intensity-dependent biases. Since retraining WFMs on observation-based targets is costly, we study Dynamics-Precipitation Decoupling, a plug-and-play framework that uses a separately trained generator to map non-precipitation forecasts from a frozen weather model to observation-aligned daily precipitation. Its key challenges are to capture heterogeneous rainfall distributions and align daily accumulations with atmospheric signals that evolve across space and time. To address them, we train a diffusion generator conditional on atmospheric states and satellite-gauge estimates of precipitation. A multi-scale recurrent encoder summarizes atmospheric evolution, while cross-attention aligns atmospheric and precipitation features during denoising. Extensive evaluation of various backbones, including Pangu-Weather, GraphCast, and HRES, on global and regional forecasting shows improved daily precipitation accuracy and event detection, with better representation of localized accumulation patterns. Global ensemble evaluation shows lower Brier scores than ENS and training-from-scratch GenCast at all reported lead times, with lower CRPS in most comparisons. Remarkably, a heavy-rainfall case study using 2,288 stations in China further supports improved daily accumulation patterns and event detection against ground observations.

Aligning LLMs with Biomedical Knowledge using Balanced Fine-Tuning

Engineering LLMs to accelerate life sciences research requires a robust alignment with biomedical knowledge. We observe that biomedical text exhibits a fundamentally different uncertainty structure from general text: dense low-confidence runs encode epistemic knowledge gaps (dense causal chains, rare entities) rather than the sparse aleatoric stylistic variation typical of general text. Based on this discovery, we propose Balanced Fine-Tuning (BFT), a dual-scale post-training method that combines group-normalized token reweighting with sequence-level reallocation toward knowledge-dense samples exhibiting dense epistemic uncertainty. Across medical evaluation, biological reasoning, sparse-reward RL, and biological representation tasks, BFT provides more consistent gains than SFT and DFT under a shared training setup. When replacing the default closed-source backbones in GeneAgent (GPT-4o) and VCWorld (Gemini-2.5-Flash), the BFT-aligned 70B model delivers stronger performance across biological process reasoning and chemical perturbation prediction. Critically, all BFT variants further improve after subsequent GRPO with sparse rewards, while SFT and DFT degrade, suggesting that epistemic-aware post-training provides a more robust policy initialization. Beyond text generation, BFT-aligned LLMs produce more accurate and professional biomedical profile texts; after encoding these profiles with a text embedding model, the resulting representations support gene-level, cell-level, and perturbation-response tasks, suggesting that BFT-enhanced generation can facilitate biological representation and, in turn, broader biomedical downstream tasks.

Closing Ambient Clinical Documentation Gaps with Automated Provider Queries

Provider queries are clarifying requests sent by clinical documentation specialists to physicians to close gaps in the clinical note and ensure accurate billing. Prior work automates note drafting, ICD-10 coding, and order extraction assuming a complete transcript, leaving these gaps unaddressed. We study whether an LLM can automate the query loop, termed DAU (Draft, Ask, Update), across those three tasks. An audit of 3,000 real visits identifies the sources of missing documentation, from which we build five transcript-degradation benchmarks on public data. Analyzing 21k clarification turns on real conversations, we find useful-question predictors are task-specific: oracle confidence dominates, but note completeness needs only simple recall questions while ICD-10 coding needs harder, multi-option ones. About 9% of turns hurt performance, driven by redundant questions and non-answers that still trigger a rewrite. Deployment depends on learning "when not" as much as "what to" ask.

HADRec: A Hierarchy-Aware Drug Recommendation Framework by Fusing Molecular Knowledge and Electronic Health Record

Accurate medication recommendation is central to clinical decision-making, directly determining therapeutic efficacy and patient safety. However, existing methods suffer from two key limitations: drugs are often abstracted as discrete tokens, ignoring their molecular structures and pharmacological mechanisms, and the commonly used "flat" recommendation paradigm fails to leverage the hierarchical logic of the internationally standardized Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) classification system. To address these issues, we propose HADRec, a Hierarchy-Aware Drug Recommendation framework that integrates molecular knowledge with electronic health records (EHRs). HADRec employs LLaMA-7B to encode clinical notes for rich patient representations and ChemBERTa to encode drug Simplified Molecular Input Line Entry System strings, building a global molecular knowledge base. A cross-attention mechanism then performs deep multimodal fusion between patient states and drug features. The framework further incorporates a hierarchical predictor and a novel consistency constraint loss to enforce strict adherence to ATC logical dependencies. Extensive experiments on MIMIC-III demonstrate that HADRec achieves state-of-the-art performance across Jaccard, F1, and PR-AUC. External validation on MIMIC-IV confirms strong generalization under distribution shifts, and calibration analysis shows well-calibrated predictive confidence on MIMIC-IV with ECE = 0.04, and Brier = 0.06. Counterfactual evaluation reveals clinically aligned reasoning, disentangling disease-specific treatments from general care. Together, these results establish HADRec as a high-performance, interpretable, and clinically grounded pathway toward safe and reliable AI-driven medication recommendation.

GAD-MambaUNet: Direction-Group Mamba with Gradient-Adaptive DINOv3 Distillation for Lightweight Medical Image Segmentation

In this paper, we proposed GAD-MambaUNet, a lightweight medical image segmentation network that combines efficient local modeling, direction--group state-space interaction, and training-time foundation-model supervision. To improve contextual modeling in compact segmentation networks, we introduced Direction-Group Graph Selective Scan (DG-GSS), which treated scan-direction and channel-group responses as graph nodes and enabled structured information exchange before multi-directional fusion. We further incorporated DINOv3-GAD supervision, where a frozen DINOv3 teacher provided semantic guidance during training, and Gradient-Adaptive Distillation dynamically regulated the distillation strength. GAD-MambaUNet achieves a favorable accuracy--efficiency balance compared with representative lightweight and general segmentation methods. Ablation studies further verify the effectiveness of DG-GSS and training-time DINOv3-GAD supervision. In future work, we will explore more flexible teacher--student alignment strategies and extend the proposed framework to more diverse medical segmentation scenarios, such as multi-class and multi-modal segmentation tasks.

Decomposing Error and Style in Automated Clinical Coding

In automated clinical coding, where the label space spans tens of thousands of diagnosis and procedure codes, models are currently evaluated against a single gold annotation, treating any deviation as error. But we find when two teams code the same 110 ACI-Bench encounters, they agree on only 73% of codes (Jaccard similarity) for the same note; even after an independent clinical audit removes erroneous codes, agreement rises only to 77%. Is that gap error or something systematic? We model the systematic component as coding style $ψ$, a coder- or site-specific policy over what to code and how much to document, and recast coding as $p(\mathrm{code}\mid\mathrm{note},ψ)$, estimating $ψ$ with a 10-dimension rubric. If style were noise, conditioning on it would do nothing. Instead, across five datasets a model conditioned with a data-matching style raises ICD F1 by up to 26 points and an extreme mismatched one lowers it by up to 21. Four prompt based coding methods spanning 39-49 F1 converge to 52-56 once style is supplied (All p<0.05). Much of what single-gold evaluation charges to model error is recoverable, unmodeled style.

Accurate and Scalable Multimodal Pathology Retrieval via Attentive Vision-Language Alignment

The rapid digitization of histopathology slides has opened new opportunities for computational tools in clinical and research workflows. Content-based slide retrieval can help pathologists identify morphologically and semantically related precedent cases, supporting expert diagnosis and example-based education. Effective retrieval of whole-slide images (WSIs), however, remains challenging because gigapixel slides contain abundant irrelevant content, focal diagnostic patterns and slide-level semantic information that must be represented at a practicable search cost. Here we present PathSearch, a retrieval framework that combines fine-grained attentive mosaics with slide-level embeddings aligned through vision-language contrastive learning. Trained on 6,926 slide-report pairs, PathSearch captures both fine-grained morphological cues and high-level semantic patterns to enable accurate and flexible retrieval. The framework supports two key functionalities: (1) mosaic-based image-to-image (I2I) retrieval, ensuring accurate and efficient slide search; and (2) multimodal retrieval, where text queries can directly retrieve relevant slides. PathSearch was evaluated on eight tasks comprising 5,021 evaluation slides, spanning malignancy assessment on frozen and hematoxylin and eosin (H\&E)-stained slides, lymph-node metastasis detection, tumor subtyping, mixed-gallery rare-cancer retrieval, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) risk stratification. Internal and external experimental results demonstrate that PathSearch consistently outperforms the strongest existing methods without compromising multimodal accuracy. A multi-center reader study further demonstrated increases in task-level mean diagnostic accuracy, confidence, and inter-observer agreement with PathSearch's support. Together, these results support the effectiveness of PathSearch across diverse retrieval tasks and evaluation settings.

EndPrompt: Efficient Long-Context Extension via Terminal Anchoring

Extending the context window of large language models typically requires training on sequences at the target length, incurring quadratic memory and computational costs that make long-context adaptation expensive and difficult to reproduce. We propose EndPrompt, a method that achieves effective context extension using only short training sequences. The core insight is that exposing a model to long-range relative positional distances does not require constructing full-length inputs: we preserve the original short context as an intact first segment and append a brief terminal prompt as a second segment, assigning it positional indices near the target context length. This two-segment construction introduces both local and long-range relative distances within a short physical sequence while maintaining the semantic continuity of the training text--a property absent in chunk-based simulation approaches that split contiguous context. We provide a theoretical analysis grounded in Rotary Position Embedding and the Bernstein inequality, showing that position interpolation induces a rigorous smoothness constraint over the attention function, with shared Transformer parameters further suppressing unstable extrapolation to unobserved intermediate distances. Applied to LLaMA-family models extending the context window from 8K to 64K, EndPrompt achieves an average RULER score of 76.03 and the highest average on LongBench, surpassing LCEG (72.24), LongLoRA (72.95), and full-length fine-tuning (69.23) while requiring substantially less computation. These results demonstrate that long-context generalization can be induced from sparse positional supervision, challenging the prevailing assumption that dense long-sequence training is necessary for reliable context-window extension.

FeLoG: Scalable and Efficient Distributed Graph Embedding with Feedback Loop Mechanism

Graph embedding maps graph nodes into low-dimensional vectors to support applications such as recommendation, fraud detection, and graph-based retrieval-augmented generation (GraphRAG). As graphs scale to billions of edges, scalable and efficient graph embedding has become increasingly important. Existing frameworks commonly adopt a sampling-training paradigm, in which mini-batches are constructed by sampling nodes and their neighbors. However, sampling is typically decoupled from evolving embedding quality, causing redundant exploration of well-trained regions while under-sampling undertrained nodes. At the system level, such decoupling further leads to excessive communication, serialized execution, and low resource utilization in distributed environments. We present FeLoG, a feedback loop-driven system for scalable distributed graph embedding. (1) FeLoG introduces feedback-coupled sampling and training, dynamically prioritizing undertrained nodes according to real-time embedding-quality feedback, thereby reducing redundant computation and accelerating convergence. (2) It employs activity-aware communication that compresses frequently occurring node sequences to reduce intra-machine PCIe traffic and selectively synchronizes frequently updated embeddings to reduce inter-machine communication. (3) It adopts a round-interleaved pipeline that overlaps next-round sampling with current-round training to improve CPU-GPU utilization. Experiments against six state-of-the-art baselines on large-scale graphs show that FeLoG achieves an average speedup of 27.9x, reduces communication cost by more than 53.1%, and sustains over 80% CPU-GPU utilization.

DeepVoyager-VL: Incentivizing Vision-in-the-Loop Search for Long-Horizon Multimodal Agents

Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have advanced visual understanding and reasoning, yet their static parametric knowledge limits their ability to address knowledge-intensive and dynamically evolving open-world problems. To move beyond this limitation, multimodal deep search has emerged as a key direction for open-world information access, evolving from single-turn factual retrieval toward long-horizon, multi-turn search guided by visual evidence. However, existing methods typically confine vision to the input or answer stage, overlooking its role in intermediate reasoning, and lack designs tailored to long-horizon interaction. Consequently, visual evidence rarely drives continued retrieval, constraining both interaction depth and reasoning span. To address these limitations, we propose DeepVoyager-VL, a long-horizon multimodal deep-search framework for vision-in-the-loop search. Specifically, we construct a multimodal event graph to drive data synthesis, yielding problems with intermediate visual dependencies and long reasoning chains. We then design an agent framework for active visual acquisition and on-demand image loading. Finally, we fine-tune models on the synthesized data without reinforcement learning. Extensive experiments across ten multimodal search benchmarks demonstrate the effectiveness of our method.

TRCGL-Net: A Long-Tailed Multi-Label Chest X-Ray Classification Framework with Generative Data Augmentation and Label Co-Occurrence Modeling

Chest X-ray multi-label classification is a core task in intelligent medical imaging diagnosis. However, real clinical data often exhibit extreme long-tailed distributions, leading to degraded performance on rare diseases in tail classes. This issue is not only driven by data scarcity but also by two intrinsic factors:1) attenuation of tail-class lesion representations under complex anatomical backgrounds, and 2) dominance of head classes in modeling label co-occurrence relationships. To address these challenges, we propose TRCGL-Net. First, a learnable text-guided conditional diffusion model is employed to generate high-quality tail-class chest X-ray image samples under disease semantic constraints, improving data diversity and realism of rare disease patterns while alleviating class imbalance and preserving pathology-consistent semantics.Second, a channel reweighting mechanism is introduced to perform feature recalibration by emphasizing disease-relevant feature channels, thereby improving feature discriminability under long-tailed distributions.A class-aware attention mechanism is further applied to generate class-specific attention maps, enabling the model to localize disease-relevant regions and focus on fine-grained lesion areas.Finally, a graph convolution network based on label co occurrence is introduced to establish an information propagation mechanism among categories. Experiments on the PadChest dataset show that the proposed method achieves a tail-class mAP of 0.4904, an overall mAP of 0.4408, and an mAUC of 0.8989, outperforming state-of-the-art methods. TRCGL-Net effectively improves recognition performance for rare diseases under long-tailed distributions and mitigates the impact of extreme class imbalance in chest X-ray multi-label classification.

Exascale Hybrid Numerical-AI Ensembles for Operational Flood-Season Forecasting in East Asia: 15-km Decadal Hindcasts and 1-km High-Resolution Capability

Seasonal forecasting of summer rainfall in East Asia remains a grand challenge, as predictability at 3 to 6 month lead times is constrained by the spring predictability barrier, weak large-scale signals, and localized nonlinear convective extremes. We address this challenge with CAPES, which integrates a kilometer-resolution coupled regional model with atmosphere, land, and ocean components and a data-driven AI seasonal forecasting system. At 15 km resolution, the fused workflow combines 174 numerical members from varying start times, physics schemes, and parameter perturbations with 1,600 AI members generated from initial and physical perturbations. Using the full LineShine system, CAPES completes ten annual 1,774-member hindcasts for 2016 to 2025 within 14.6 hours, improving the mean prediction score from ECMWF's 71.8 to 75.9 and delivering a major gain in operational forecasting capability. The 1-km configuration further enables fine-scale typhoon simulation and establishes the feasibility of kilometer-scale fused ensemble forecasting on a one-week timescale.

Graph Grounded Cross Attention Transformer Neural Network for Structurally Constrained Full Event Sequence Generation in Predictive Process Monitoring

Structurally constrained event sequence generation remains challenging because generated paths must preserve transition feasibility, temporal order, termination, and attribute consistency. In predictive process monitoring (PPM), this challenge appears as full event sequence generation, whereas existing work mainly addresses component tasks such as next activity, remaining time, outcome, and attribute prediction. This paper proposes the Graph Grounded Cross Attention Transformer Neural Network (GGATN) for this unified PPM task. GGATN uses a global process graph as structured activity memory, contextualizes sequence positions through Transformer self attention, and injects process topology through graph grounded cross attention. Unlike autoregressive decoding, GGATN generates activities, timestamps, length, and event level and sequence level attributes in a single pass, followed by Viterbi style graph constrained decoding for feasible paths and explicit termination. Experiments on six benchmark event logs show more reliable generation quality than local instruction prompted LLM baselines. GGATN achieves strong performance on sequence similarity, Damerau Levenshtein similarity, bigram based control flow similarity, and duration distribution, while maintaining zero hallucinated activities and zero sequence level attribute inconsistency. Ablation analyses confirm the global graph encoder as a stable structural prior. Interpretability analyses show how graph structure, sequence context, feedback refinement, and constrained decoding shape generation.

Measuring Maximum Activations in Open Large Language Models

The dynamic range of activations is a first-order constraint for low-bit quantization, activation scaling, and stable LLM inference. Prior work characterized outlier features and massive activations on pre-2024 LLaMA-style models, and the downstream activation-quantization stack inherits that picture without revisiting it for the post-LLaMA open-model boom. We ask the deployment-oriented question: how large can activations get in modern open LLMs, and how does this magnitude vary across families, generations, and training stages? Under a unified pipeline (5,000-sample multi-domain corpus, family-specific tokenization, identical hooks across embeddings, hidden states, attention, MLP/MoE, SwiGLU gates, and final norm), we measure global and layerwise maxima on 27 checkpoints from 8 open families spanning dense, MoE, vision-language, intermediate-training, and instruction-tuned variants. We find that (i) global maxima span over nearly four orders of magnitude at comparable parameter counts, with Qwen3.5 and MoE checkpoints in the 10^2 to 10^3 range and Gemma3-27B-it reaching ~7 x 10^5; (ii) cross-family and cross-generation comparisons break simple monotonic scaling; and (iii) MoE checkpoints exhibit 14.0-23.4x lower peaks than matched-scale dense counterparts, while the residual stream carries the global maximum in 22/24 checkpoints. A lightweight INT-8 sanity check shows that measured maxima co-vary with low-bit reconstruction error via activation-scale selection. We conclude that maximum activation magnitude is a model property tied to family, architecture, and training stage - not a simple byproduct of size - and should be measured and reported alongside any open-weight release before low-bit deployment. The code is publicly available at https://github.com/clx1415926/Max_act_llm.

Gap Phenomenon for Yamabe Type Problems of $M^m\times T^{n-m}$

We prove that if $(M^m, h)$ is a Yamabe metric, then the product metric $h + g_{\mathrm{flat}}$ on $M^m \times T^{n-m}$ is also a Yamabe metric whenever the flat torus $T^{n-m}$ is sufficiently small. This generalizes earlier results for $S^1 \times S^{n-1}$. Our method extends to the study of Type~I and Type~II Yamabe constants, $Q$-curvature problems, and an isoperimetric-ratio type problem.
