Reifying Research Logic: AI-Assisted Workflow Construction and Incremental Refinement for Quantitative Syntax

Quantitative language research often depends on long chains of computational steps, yet the logic connecting those steps usually remains buried in scripts. This makes analyses harder to inspect, share, and revise than they need to be. Focusing on quantitative syntax, we present QLWF, a visual workflow platform that turns natural-language research descriptions into executable workflows through an AI assisted five-stage pipeline. In this setting, reification makes the research logic visible as a workflow, while formalization gives that workflow deterministic execution semantics. The language model is used only during construction. Execution is handled by a fixed node library and engine, which keeps the resulting workflows reproducible. QLWF also supports incremental refinement, so saved workflows can be revised by changing only the parts that need to change rather than being rebuilt from scratch. To evaluate the approach, we build a 64-task benchmark called QL-Bench from the quantitative-syntax literature. Across three runs, QLWF produces structurally valid and executable workflows for every task and reaches a mean output-plausibility rate of 98.4%, well above the prompt-based baselines. On a separate 12-task lifecycle benchmark, this refinement process succeeds in every case and uses roughly one-third of the tokens required by full regeneration. The paper also releases the node library, benchmark, workflow templates, and platform as reusable resources for quantitative-syntax research.

Fictional Worldbuilding: Multi-Agent LLM Collaboration with Hierarchical Context Compression and Iterative Review

Worldbuilding, the construction of coherent fictional worlds, is a foundational task in game design and literary creation. Large Language Models (LLMs) offer new possibilities for automated content generation, but their application to worldbuilding faces three challenges: context explosion that grows linearly with the building process, the tension between creative diversity and content consistency, and the absence of automated quality assurance. This paper presents AutoWorldBuilder, a multi-agent collaborative system that addresses these challenges through five integrated components: a structured concept network with conflict detection; a DAG-based hybrid batch scheduler that groups tasks by semantic locality; a four-layer context compression mechanism achieving approximately 90% token reduction; an iterative review system with specialized Auditor agents that improves proposal pass rates from 42% to over 85%; and a skill-driven agent architecture supporting zero-code extension with differentiated temperature configuration. Two experiments across 20 diverse worldbuilding tasks, using GPT-OSS 120B and DeepSeek v3.2 as LLM backends, demonstrate a 95.0% success rate. The system generated 56-103 self-consistent concepts per world in 18-31 minutes with zero-conflict delivery. The architectural patterns validated here, including layer-as-budget compression, semantic-locality scheduling, and separation of generation and review, transfer to the broader class of knowledge-intensive, multi-agent LLM applications.

IRSAMap:Towards Large-Scale, High-Resolution Land Cover Map Vectorization

With the enhancement of remote sensing image resolution and the rapid advancement of deep learning, land cover mapping is transitioning from pixel-level segmentation to object-based vector modeling. This shift demands more from deep learning models, requiring precise object boundaries and topological consistency. However, existing datasets face three main challenges: limited class annotations, small data scale, and lack of spatial structural information. To overcome these issues, we introduce IRSAMap, the first global remote sensing dataset for large-scale, high-resolution, multi-feature land cover vector mapping. IRSAMap offers four key advantages: 1) a comprehensive vector annotation system with over 1.8 million instances of 10 typical objects (e.g., buildings, roads, rivers), ensuring semantic and spatial accuracy; 2) an intelligent annotation workflow combining manual and AI-based methods to improve efficiency and consistency; 3) global coverage across 79 regions in six continents, totaling over 1,000 km; and 4) multi-task adaptability for tasks like pixel-level classification, building outline extraction, road centerline extraction, and panoramic segmentation. IRSAMap provides a standardized benchmark for the shift from pixel-based to object-based approaches, advancing geographic feature automation and collaborative modeling. It is valuable for global geographic information updates and digital twin construction. The dataset is publicly available at https://github.com/ucas-dlg/IRSAMap

GLD-Road:A global-local decoding road network extraction model for remote sensing images

Road networks are crucial for mapping, autonomous driving, and disaster response. While manual annotation is costly, deep learning offers efficient extraction. Current methods include postprocessing (prone to errors), global parallel (fast but misses nodes), and local iterative (accurate but slow). We propose GLD-Road, a two-stage model combining global efficiency and local precision. First, it detects road nodes and connects them via a Connect Module. Then, it iteratively refines broken roads using local searches, drastically reducing computation. Experiments show GLD-Road outperforms state-of-the-art methods, improving APLS by 1.9% (City-Scale) and 0.67% (SpaceNet3). It also reduces retrieval time by 40% vs. Sat2Graph (global) and 92% vs. RNGDet++ (local). The experimental results are available at https://github.com/ucas-dlg/GLD-Road.

DGTRSD & DGTRS-CLIP: A Dual-Granularity Remote Sensing Image-Text Dataset and Vision Language Foundation Model for Alignment

Vision Language Foundation Models based on CLIP architecture for remote sensing primarily rely on short text captions, which often result in incomplete semantic representations. Although longer captions convey richer information, existing models struggle to process them effectively because of limited text-encoding capacity, and there remains a shortage of resources that align remote sensing images with both short text and long text captions. To address this gap, we introduce DGTRSD, a dual-granularity remote sensing image-text dataset, where each image is paired with both a short text caption and a long text description, providing a solid foundation for dual-granularity semantic modeling. Based on this, we further propose DGTRS-CLIP, a dual-granularity curriculum learning framework that combines short text and long text supervision to achieve dual-granularity semantic alignment. Extensive experiments on four typical zero-shot tasks: long text cross-modal retrieval, short text cross-modal retrieval, image classification, and semantic localization demonstrate that DGTRS-CLIP consistently outperforms existing methods across all tasks. The code has been open-sourced and is available at https://github.com/MitsuiChen14/DGTRS.

Active Flow Control for Bluff Body under High Reynolds Number Turbulent Flow Conditions Using Deep Reinforcement Learning

This study employs Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) for active flow control in a turbulent flow field of high Reynolds numbers at $Re=274000$. That is, an agent is trained to obtain a control strategy that can reduce the drag of a cylinder while also minimizing the oscillations of the lift. Probes are placed only around the surface of the cylinder, and a Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) agent controls nine zero-net mass flux jets on the downstream side of the cylinder. The trained PPO agent effectively reduces drag by $29\%$ and decreases lift oscillations by $18\%$ of amplitude, with the control effect demonstrating good repeatability. Control tests of this agent within the Reynolds number range of $Re=260000$ to $288000$ show the agent's control strategy possesses a certain degree of robustness, with very similar drag reduction effects under different Reynolds numbers. Analysis using power spectral energy reveals that the agent learns specific flow frequencies in the flow field and effectively suppresses low-frequency, large-scale structures. Graphically visualizing the policy, combined with pressure, vorticity, and turbulent kinetic energy contours, reveals the mechanism by which jets achieve drag reduction by influencing reattachment vortices. This study successfully implements robust active flow control in realistically significant high Reynolds number turbulent flows, minimizing time costs (using two-dimensional geometrical models and turbulence models) and maximally considering the feasibility of future experimental implementation.

PolyFootNet: Extracting Polygonal Building Footprints in Off-Nadir Remote Sensing Images

Extracting polygonal building footprints from off-nadir imagery is crucial for diverse applications. Current deep-learning-based extraction approaches predominantly rely on semantic segmentation paradigms and post-processing algorithms, limiting their boundary precision and applicability. However, existing polygonal extraction methodologies are inherently designed for near-nadir imagery and fail under the geometric complexities introduced by off-nadir viewing angles. To address these challenges, this paper introduces Polygonal Footprint Network (PolyFootNet), a novel deep-learning framework that directly outputs polygonal building footprints without requiring external post-processing steps. PolyFootNet employs a High-Quality Mask Prompter to generate precise roof masks, which guide polygonal vertex extraction in a unified model pipeline. A key contribution of PolyFootNet is introducing the Self Offset Attention mechanism, grounded in Nadaraya-Watson regression, to effectively mitigate the accuracy discrepancy observed between low-rise and high-rise buildings. This approach allows low-rise building predictions to leverage angular corrections learned from high-rise building offsets, significantly enhancing overall extraction accuracy. Additionally, motivated by the inherent ambiguity of building footprint extraction tasks, we systematically investigate alternative extraction paradigms and demonstrate that a combined approach of building masks and offsets achieves superior polygonal footprint results. Extensive experiments validate PolyFootNet's effectiveness, illustrating its promising potential as a robust, generalizable, and precise polygonal building footprint extraction method from challenging off-nadir imagery. To facilitate further research, we will release pre-trained weights of our offset prediction module at https://github.com/likaiucas/PolyFootNet.

Advancing Out-of-Distribution Detection through Data Purification and Dynamic Activation Function Design

In the dynamic realms of machine learning and deep learning, the robustness and reliability of models are paramount, especially in critical real-world applications. A fundamental challenge in this sphere is managing Out-of-Distribution (OOD) samples, significantly increasing the risks of model misclassification and uncertainty. Our work addresses this challenge by enhancing the detection and management of OOD samples in neural networks. We introduce OOD-R (Out-of-Distribution-Rectified), a meticulously curated collection of open-source datasets with enhanced noise reduction properties. In-Distribution (ID) noise in existing OOD datasets can lead to inaccurate evaluation of detection algorithms. Recognizing this, OOD-R incorporates noise filtering technologies to refine the datasets, ensuring a more accurate and reliable evaluation of OOD detection algorithms. This approach not only improves the overall quality of data but also aids in better distinguishing between OOD and ID samples, resulting in up to a 2.5\% improvement in model accuracy and a minimum 3.2\% reduction in false positives. Furthermore, we present ActFun, an innovative method that fine-tunes the model's response to diverse inputs, thereby improving the stability of feature extraction and minimizing specificity issues. ActFun addresses the common problem of model overconfidence in OOD detection by strategically reducing the influence of hidden units, which enhances the model's capability to estimate OOD uncertainty more accurately. Implementing ActFun in the OOD-R dataset has led to significant performance enhancements, including an 18.42\% increase in AUROC of the GradNorm method and a 16.93\% decrease in FPR95 of the Energy method. Overall, our research not only advances the methodologies in OOD detection but also emphasizes the importance of dataset integrity for accurate algorithm evaluation.

Prompt-Driven Building Footprint Extraction in Aerial Images with Offset-Building Model

More accurate extraction of invisible building footprints from very-high-resolution (VHR) aerial images relies on roof segmentation and roof-to-footprint offset extraction. Existing methods based on instance segmentation suffer from poor generalization when extended to large-scale data production and fail to achieve low-cost human interaction. This prompt paradigm inspires us to design a promptable framework for roof and offset extraction, and transforms end-to-end algorithms into promptable methods. Within this framework, we propose a novel Offset-Building Model (OBM). Based on prompt prediction, we first discover a common pattern of predicting offsets and tailored Distance-NMS (DNMS) algorithms for offset optimization. To rigorously evaluate the algorithm's capabilities, we introduce a prompt-based evaluation method, where our model reduces offset errors by 16.6\% and improves roof Intersection over Union (IoU) by 10.8\% compared to other models. Leveraging the common patterns in predicting offsets, DNMS algorithms enable models to further reduce offset vector loss by 6.5\%. To further validate the generalization of models, we tested them using a newly proposed test set, Huizhou test set, with over 7,000 manually annotated instance samples. Our algorithms and dataset will be available at https://github.com/likaiucas/OBM.
