METRO: Towards Strategy Induction from Expert Dialogue Transcripts for Non-collaborative Dialogues

Developing non-collaborative dialogue agents traditionally requires the manual, unscalable codification of expert strategies. We propose \ours, a method that leverages large language models to autonomously induce both strategy actions and planning logic directly from raw transcripts. METRO formalizes expert knowledge into a Strategy Forest, a hierarchical structure that captures both short-term responses (nodes) and long-term strategic foresight (branches). Experimental results across two benchmarks show that METRO demonstrates promising performance, outperforming existing methods by an average of 9%-10%. Our further analysis not only reveals the success behind METRO (strategic behavioral diversity and foresight), but also demonstrates its robust cross-task transferability. This offers new insights into building non-collaborative agents in a cost-effective and scalable way. Our code is available at https://github.com/Humphrey-0125/METRO.

ContribChain: A Stress-Balanced Blockchain Sharding Protocol with Node Contribution Awareness

Existing blockchain sharding protocols have focused on eliminating imbalanced workload distributions. However, even with workload balance, disparities in processing capabilities can lead to differential stress among shards, resulting in transaction backlogs in certain shards. Therefore, achieving stress balance among shards in the dynamic and heterogeneous environment presents a significant challenge of blockchain sharding. In this paper, we propose ContribChain, a blockchain sharding protocol that can automatically be aware of node contributions to achieve stress balance. We calculate node contribution values based on the historical behavior to evaluate the performance and security of nodes. Furthermore, we propose node allocation algorithm NACV and account allocation algorithm P-Louvain, which both match shard performance with workload to achieve stress balance. Finally, we conduct extensive experiments to compare our work with state-of-the-art baselines based on real Ethereum transactions. The evaluation results show that P-Louvain reduces allocation execution time by 86% and the cross-shard transaction ratio by 7.5%. Meanwhile, ContribChain improves throughput by 35.8% and reduces the cross-shard transaction ratio by 16%.

Self-Supervised Contrastive Graph Clustering Network via Structural Information Fusion

Graph clustering, a classical task in graph learning, involves partitioning the nodes of a graph into distinct clusters. This task has applications in various real-world scenarios, such as anomaly detection, social network analysis, and community discovery. Current graph clustering methods commonly rely on module pre-training to obtain a reliable prior distribution for the model, which is then used as the optimization objective. However, these methods often overlook deeper supervised signals, leading to sub-optimal reliability of the prior distribution. To address this issue, we propose a novel deep graph clustering method called CGCN. Our approach introduces contrastive signals and deep structural information into the pre-training process. Specifically, CGCN utilizes a contrastive learning mechanism to foster information interoperability among multiple modules and allows the model to adaptively adjust the degree of information aggregation for different order structures. Our CGCN method has been experimentally validated on multiple real-world graph datasets, showcasing its ability to boost the dependability of prior clustering distributions acquired through pre-training. As a result, we observed notable enhancements in the performance of the model.
