HiRL: Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning for Coordinated Resource Management in Heterogeneous Edge Computing

Edge computing faces unprecedented resource orchestration challenges from multi-dimensional heterogeneity across device architectures, diverse task requirements in CPU-intensive, GPU-intensive, I/O-intensive, and dynamic network conditions. The edge environments demand real-time task processing within strict energy budgets, yet conventional approaches struggle with mixed continuous-discrete optimization while meeting deadline and energy constraints. This paper presents HiRL, a hierarchical reinforcement learning framework that decomposes complex resource orchestration into coordinated power control and task allocation decisions. Our approach separates continuous power management using the Twin Delayed Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (TD3) and discrete task placement using Double Deep Q-Network (DDQN), unified through a coordination engine with five-dimensional queue state representation. We propose a heterogeneous assessment of resource compatibility with deadline-oriented prioritization and failure-penalized adaptive sampling to enhance decision quality under resource constraints. To improve practical applicability, the framework models comprehensive system dynamics including device mobility, queue congestion patterns, infrastructure heterogeneity, and priority-sensitive scheduling demands. Experimental results show that HiRL achieves effective latency-energy trade-offs with 28% latency reduction compared to Single-DDQN and maintains nearly 100% task completion rates under all load conditions. Compared to baseline algorithms, HiRL reduces energy consumption by up to 51% under low load while achieving 24% better latency performance than static optimization approaches under high load, establishing effective resource orchestration in heterogeneous edge environments.

DIVA-GRPO: Enhancing Multimodal Reasoning through Difficulty-Adaptive Variant Advantage

Reinforcement learning (RL) with group relative policy optimization (GRPO) has become a widely adopted approach for enhancing the reasoning capabilities of multimodal large language models (MLLMs). While GRPO enables long-chain reasoning without a critic, it often suffers from sparse rewards on difficult problems and advantage vanishing when group-level rewards are too consistent for overly easy or hard problems. Existing solutions (sample expansion, selective utilization, and indirect reward design) often fail to maintain enough variance in within-group reward distributions to yield clear optimization signals. To address this, we propose DIVA-GRPO, a difficulty-adaptive variant advantage method that adjusts variant difficulty distributions from a global perspective. DIVA-GRPO dynamically assesses problem difficulty, samples variants with appropriate difficulty levels, and calculates advantages across local and global groups using difficulty-weighted and normalized scaling. This alleviates reward sparsity and advantage vanishing while improving training stability. Extensive experiments on six reasoning benchmarks demonstrate that DIVA-GRPO outperforms existing approaches in training efficiency and reasoning performance.

A Survey of Vibe Coding with Large Language Models

The advancement of large language models (LLMs) has catalyzed a paradigm shift from code generation assistance to autonomous coding agents, enabling a novel development methodology termed "Vibe Coding" where developers validate AI-generated implementations through outcome observation rather than line-by-line code comprehension. Despite its transformative potential, the effectiveness of this emergent paradigm remains under-explored, with empirical evidence revealing unexpected productivity losses and fundamental challenges in human-AI collaboration. To address this gap, this survey provides the first comprehensive and systematic review of Vibe Coding with large language models, establishing both theoretical foundations and practical frameworks for this transformative development approach. Drawing from systematic analysis of over 1000 research papers, we survey the entire vibe coding ecosystem, examining critical infrastructure components including LLMs for coding, LLM-based coding agent, development environment of coding agent, and feedback mechanisms. We first introduce Vibe Coding as a formal discipline by formalizing it through a Constrained Markov Decision Process that captures the dynamic triadic relationship among human developers, software projects, and coding agents. Building upon this theoretical foundation, we then synthesize existing practices into five distinct development models: Unconstrained Automation, Iterative Conversational Collaboration, Planning-Driven, Test-Driven, and Context-Enhanced Models, thus providing the first comprehensive taxonomy in this domain. Critically, our analysis reveals that successful Vibe Coding depends not merely on agent capabilities but on systematic context engineering, well-established development environments, and human-agent collaborative development models.

CAPMix: Robust KPI Anomaly Detection for AIOps in Noisy and Dynamic Environments

Time-series anomaly detection is crucial in AIOps for maintaining large-scale service reliability. In production, streams of Key Performance Indicators (KPI) are high-dimensional, non-stationary, and affected by noise, deployment changes, and latent anomalies, making real failures hard to distinguish from benign variation. Most existing methods assume either normality (learning from "normal" history) or rely on injected anomalies for training. Yet injected patterns often misalign with real failure modes, skewing decision boundaries -- aka. Anomaly Shift. We propose CAPMix, a controllable anomaly augmentation framework with prior-guided injection for realistic temporal behaviors. CAPMix combines label revision and dual-space mixup to enhance robustness under contaminated and mixed data. CAPMix consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods on public AIOps and time-series benchmarks. It has been deployed in Kuaishou's large-scale production system, reducing false alarms and improving monitoring reliability. A real-world dataset is also released to enrich the research on robust KPI anomaly detection.

BotTrans: A Multi-Source Graph Domain Adaptation Approach for Social Bot Detection

Transferring extensive knowledge from relevant social networks has emerged as a promising solution to overcome label scarcity in detecting social bots and other anomalies with GNN-based models. However, effective transfer faces two critical challenges. Firstly, the network heterophily problem, which is caused by bots hiding malicious behaviors via indiscriminately interacting with human users, hinders the model's ability to learn sufficient and accurate bot-related knowledge from source domains. Secondly, single-source transfer might lead to inferior and unstable results, as the source network may embody weak relevance to the task and provide limited knowledge. To address these challenges, we explore multiple source domains and propose a multi-source graph domain adaptation model named \textit{BotTrans}. We initially leverage the labeling knowledge shared across multiple source networks to establish a cross-source-domain topology with increased network homophily. We then aggregate cross-domain neighbor information to enhance the discriminability of source node embeddings. Subsequently, we integrate the relevance between each source-target pair with model optimization, which facilitates knowledge transfer from source networks that are more relevant to the detection task. Additionally, we propose a refinement strategy to improve detection performance by utilizing semantic knowledge within the target domain. Extensive experiments on real-world datasets demonstrate that \textit{BotTrans} outperforms the existing state-of-the-art methods, revealing its efficacy in leveraging multi-source knowledge when the target detection task is unlabeled.

Learning Evolving Tools for Large Language Models

Tool learning enables large language models (LLMs) to interact with external tools and APIs, greatly expanding the application scope of LLMs. However, due to the dynamic nature of external environments, these tools and APIs may become outdated over time, preventing LLMs from correctly invoking tools. Existing research primarily focuses on static environments and overlooks this issue, limiting the adaptability of LLMs in real-world applications. In this paper, we propose ToolEVO, a novel framework designed to enhance the adaptive and reflective capabilities of LLMs against tool variability. By leveraging Monte Carlo Tree Search, ToolEVO facilitates active exploration and interaction of LLMs within dynamic environments, allowing for autonomous self-reflection and self-updating of tool usage based on environmental feedback. Additionally, we introduce ToolQA-D, a benchmark specifically designed to evaluate the impact of tool variability. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness and stability of our approach, highlighting the importance of adaptability to tool variability for effective tool learning.

M3GIA: A Cognition Inspired Multilingual and Multimodal General Intelligence Ability Benchmark

As recent multi-modality large language models (MLLMs) have shown formidable proficiency on various complex tasks, there has been increasing attention on debating whether these models could eventually mirror human intelligence. However, existing benchmarks mainly focus on evaluating solely on task performance, such as the accuracy of identifying the attribute of an object. Combining well-developed cognitive science to understand the intelligence of MLLMs beyond superficial achievements remains largely unexplored. To this end, we introduce the first cognitive-driven multi-lingual and multi-modal benchmark to evaluate the general intelligence ability of MLLMs, dubbed M3GIA. Specifically, we identify five key cognitive factors based on the well-recognized Cattell-Horn-Carrol (CHC) model of intelligence and propose a novel evaluation metric. In addition, since most MLLMs are trained to perform in different languages, a natural question arises: is language a key factor influencing the cognitive ability of MLLMs? As such, we go beyond English to encompass other languages based on their popularity, including Chinese, French, Spanish, Portuguese and Korean, to construct our M3GIA. We make sure all the data relevant to the cultural backgrounds are collected from their native context to avoid English-centric bias. We collected a significant corpus of data from human participants, revealing that the most advanced MLLM reaches the lower boundary of human intelligence in English. Yet, there remains a pronounced disparity in the other five languages assessed. We also reveals an interesting winner takes all phenomenon that are aligned with the discovery in cognitive studies. Our benchmark will be open-sourced, with the aspiration of facilitating the enhancement of cognitive capabilities in MLLMs.

Graph Domain Adaptation: Challenges, Progress and Prospects

As graph representation learning often suffers from label scarcity problems in real-world applications, researchers have proposed graph domain adaptation (GDA) as an effective knowledge-transfer paradigm across graphs. In particular, to enhance model performance on target graphs with specific tasks, GDA introduces a bunch of task-related graphs as source graphs and adapts the knowledge learnt from source graphs to the target graphs. Since GDA combines the advantages of graph representation learning and domain adaptation, it has become a promising direction of transfer learning on graphs and has attracted an increasing amount of research interest in recent years. In this paper, we comprehensively overview the studies of GDA and present a detailed survey of recent advances. Specifically, we outline the research status and challenges, propose a taxonomy, introduce the details of representative works, and discuss the prospects. To the best of our knowledge, this paper is the first survey for graph domain adaptation. A detailed paper list is available at https://github.com/Skyorca/Awesome-Graph-Domain-Adaptation-Papers.

Skyline Community Search over Edge-Attributed Bipartite Graphs

Bipartite graphs, modeling relationships between two types of entities, are widely used in practical applications. Community search, a fundamental problem in bipartite graphs, has gained significant attention. However, existing studies focus on measuring structural cohesiveness between vertex sets while either ignoring edge attributes or considering only one-dimensional importance. In this paper, we introduce a novel community model, named edge-attributed skyline community (ESC), which preserves structural cohesiveness and captures the inherent dominance of multi-dimensional edge attributes in bipartite graphs. To search for ESCs, we developed an efficient peeling algorithm that iteratively deletes edges with the minimum attribute in each dimension. Additionally, we devised an expanding algorithm to reduce the search space and speed up the filtering of unpromising vertices using a proven upper bound. Extensive experiments on large-scale real-world datasets demonstrate the efficiency, effectiveness, and scalability of our approach. A case study compared with prior arts demonstrates that our design improves the precision and diversity of results.

FCS-HGNN: Flexible Multi-type Community Search in Heterogeneous Information Networks

Community search is a personalized community discovery problem designed to identify densely connected subgraphs containing the query node. Recently, community search in heterogeneous information networks (HINs) has received considerable attention. Existing methods typically focus on modeling relationships in HINs through predefined meta-paths or user-specified relational constraints. However, metapath-based methods are primarily designed to identify single-type communities with nodes of the same type rather than multi-type communities involving nodes of different types. Constraint-based methods require users to have a good understanding of community patterns to define a suitable set of relational constraints, which increases the burden on users. In this paper, we propose FCS-HGNN, a novel method for flexibly identifying both single-type and multi-type communities in HINs. Specifically, FCS-HGNN extracts complementary information from different views and dynamically considers the contribution of each relation instead of treating them equally, thereby capturing more fine-grained heterogeneous information. Furthermore, to improve efficiency on large-scale graphs, we further propose LS-FCS-HGNN, which incorporates i) the neighbor sampling strategy to improve training efficiency, and ii) the depth-based heuristic search strategy to improve query efficiency. We conducted extensive experiments to demonstrate the superiority of our proposed methods over state-of-the-art methods, achieving average improvements of 14.3% and 11.1% on single-type and multi-type communities, respectively.

Causality and Independence Enhancement for Biased Node Classification

Most existing methods that address out-of-distribution (OOD) generalization for node classification on graphs primarily focus on a specific type of data biases, such as label selection bias or structural bias. However, anticipating the type of bias in advance is extremely challenging, and designing models solely for one specific type may not necessarily improve overall generalization performance. Moreover, limited research has focused on the impact of mixed biases, which are more prevalent and demanding in real-world scenarios. To address these limitations, we propose a novel Causality and Independence Enhancement (CIE) framework, applicable to various graph neural networks (GNNs). Our approach estimates causal and spurious features at the node representation level and mitigates the influence of spurious correlations through the backdoor adjustment. Meanwhile, independence constraint is introduced to improve the discriminability and stability of causal and spurious features in complex biased environments. Essentially, CIE eliminates different types of data biases from a unified perspective, without the need to design separate methods for each bias as before. To evaluate the performance under specific types of data biases, mixed biases, and low-resource scenarios, we conducted comprehensive experiments on five publicly available datasets. Experimental results demonstrate that our approach CIE not only significantly enhances the performance of GNNs but outperforms state-of-the-art debiased node classification methods.

Significant-attributed Community Search in Heterogeneous Information Networks

Community search is a personalized community discovery problem aimed at finding densely-connected subgraphs containing the query vertex. In particular, the search for communities with high-importance vertices has recently received a great deal of attention. However, existing works mainly focus on conventional homogeneous networks where vertices are of the same type, but are not applicable to heterogeneous information networks (HINs) composed of multi-typed vertices and different semantic relations, such as bibliographic networks. In this paper, we study the problem of high-importance community search in HINs. A novel community model is introduced, named heterogeneous significant community (HSC), to unravel the closely connected vertices of the same type with high attribute values through multiple semantic relationships. An HSC not only maximizes the exploration of indirect relationships across entities of the anchor-type but incorporates their significance. To search the HSCs, we first develop online algorithms by exploiting both segmented-based meta-path expansion and significance increment. Specially, a solution space reuse strategy based on structural nesting is designed to boost the efficiency. In addition, we further devise a two-level index to support searching HSCs in optimal time, based on which a space-efficient compact index is proposed. Extensive experiments on real-world large-scale HINs demonstrate that our solutions are effective and efficient for searching HSCs, and the index-based algorithms are 2-4 orders of magnitude faster than online algorithms.

OpenGDA: Graph Domain Adaptation Benchmark for Cross-network Learning

Graph domain adaptation models are widely adopted in cross-network learning tasks, with the aim of transferring labeling or structural knowledge. Currently, there mainly exist two limitations in evaluating graph domain adaptation models. On one side, they are primarily tested for the specific cross-network node classification task, leaving tasks at edge-level and graph-level largely under-explored. Moreover, they are primarily tested in limited scenarios, such as social networks or citation networks, lacking validation of model's capability in richer scenarios. As comprehensively assessing models could enhance model practicality in real-world applications, we propose a benchmark, known as OpenGDA. It provides abundant pre-processed and unified datasets for different types of tasks (node, edge, graph). They originate from diverse scenarios, covering web information systems, urban systems and natural systems. Furthermore, it integrates state-of-the-art models with standardized and end-to-end pipelines. Overall, OpenGDA provides a user-friendly, scalable and reproducible benchmark for evaluating graph domain adaptation models. The benchmark experiments highlight the challenges of applying GDA models to real-world applications with consistent good performance, and potentially provide insights to future research. As an emerging project, OpenGDA will be regularly updated with new datasets and models. It could be accessed from https://github.com/Skyorca/OpenGDA.

Multi-attributed Community Search in Road-social Networks

Given a location-based social network, how to find the communities that are highly relevant to query users and have top overall scores in multiple attributes according to user preferences? Typically, in the face of such a problem setting, we can model the network as a multi-attributed road-social network, in which each user is linked with location information and $d$ ($\geq\! 1$) numerical attributes. In practice, user preferences (i.e., weights) are usually inherently uncertain and can only be estimated with bounded accuracy, because a human user is not able to designate exact values with absolute precision. Inspired by this, we introduce a normative community model suitable for multi-criteria decision making, called multi-attributed community (MAC), based on the concepts of $k$-core and a novel dominance relationship specific to preferences. Given uncertain user preferences, namely, an approximate representation of weights, the MAC search reports the exact communities for each of the possible weight settings. We devise an elegant index structure to maintain the dominance relationships, based on which two algorithms are developed to efficiently compute the top-$j$ MACs. The efficiency and scalability of our algorithms and the effectiveness of MAC model are demonstrated by extensive experiments on both real-world and synthetic road-social networks.
