Checkerboard Shells: A Position-Only Thin-Shell Discretization with Scale-Compatible Completion

Checkerboard edge-midpoint geometry provides an exact planar Varignon parallelogram for every spatial quadrilateral, allowing a local tangent frame and normal to be recovered directly from nodal positions even when the raw quadrilateral is warped. Building on this property, we develop a position-only thin-shell discretization with no independent director, rotation, or strain variables. The connected edge-midpoint surface is taken as the physical midsurface: the first fundamental form is evaluated on planar B faces, while a W-centered second fundamental form is constructed from variations of neighboring B-face normals, so membrane and bending share the same geometric carrier. A variational-kernel analysis shows that smooth second-order consistency does not eliminate lattice-scale blind modes. After quotienting out the raw checkerboard gauge, the B metric has one physical membrane blind direction and the symmetric W curvature has two curvature blind directions. We introduce a quotient-minimal membrane compatibility coordinate $X_M$ and an objective reference-relative curvature coordinate $X_W^{rel}$, placed consistently in the $O(t)$ membrane and $O(t^3)$ bending sectors. The formulation admits an explicit midpoint quotient, complete flat blind-mode classification, rigid-motion objectivity, reference-state consistency, and an $O(h^2)$ near-isometry approximation result for aligned generalized cylinders. Numerical tests show second-order curvature convergence, targeted removal of the membrane defect, and a sub-percent, refinement-decaying influence of $X_W^{rel}$. Linear and nonlinear shell benchmarks further demonstrate flat bending, curved-shell membrane-bending coupling, thickness sensitivity, large rotation, nonlinear pinching, and localized ovalization within a single position-only framework.

FAVOR: Efficient Filter-Agnostic Vector ANNS Based on Selectivity-Aware Exclusion Distances

Modern retrieval systems increasingly require integrating approximate nearest neighbor search (ANNS) with complex attribute filtering to handle hybrid queries in applications such as recommendation systems and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG). While HNSW-based inline-filtering methods show promise, existing approaches struggle to deliver high throughput under low-selectivity scenarios while balancing search efficiency, filtering generality, and index connectivity. To address these challenges, we propose FAVOR, an efficient filter-agnostic vector ANNS that supports arbitrary filtering conditions while maintaining stable performance across varying selectivity levels. FAVOR introduces three novel features: (1) an integrated architecture that unifies selectivity estimation and filtered ANNS execution, providing a cohesive solution for hybrid vector-attribute queries; (2) a HNSW-based inline-filtering algorithm that introduces an exclusion distance mechanism to dynamically reshape the vector distance distribution, pushing non-target vectors away from the query while promoting valid candidates toward the query, thus improving search efficiency without compromising generality or graph connectivity; and (3) a selectivity-driven search selector that estimates query selectivity and dynamically routes queries between a pre-filtering brute-force algorithm for low-selectivity cases and an optimized HNSW-based search algorithm for other scenarios, ensuring consistent performance. Extensive experiments on real-world datasets demonstrate that FAVOR achieves a 1.3-5$\times$ higher QPS at $Recall@10 = 95\%$ compared to state-of-the-art methods for arbitrary filtering conditions, while maintaining competitive performance even against tailored solutions in some filtering conditions.

Balancing Rewards in Text Summarization: Multi-Objective Reinforcement Learning via HyperVolume Optimization

Text summarization is a crucial task that requires the simultaneous optimization of multiple objectives, including consistency, coherence, relevance, and fluency, which presents considerable challenges. Although large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable performance, enhanced by reinforcement learning (RL), few studies have focused on optimizing the multi-objective problem of summarization through RL based on LLMs. In this paper, we introduce hypervolume optimization (HVO), a novel optimization strategy that dynamically adjusts the scores between groups during the reward process in RL by using the hypervolume method. This method guides the model's optimization to progressively approximate the pareto front, thereby generating balanced summaries across multiple objectives. Experimental results on several representative summarization datasets demonstrate that our method outperforms group relative policy optimization (GRPO) in overall scores and shows more balanced performance across different dimensions. Moreover, a 7B foundation model enhanced by HVO performs comparably to GPT-4 in the summarization task, while maintaining a shorter generation length. Our code is publicly available at https://github.com/ai4business-LiAuto/HVO.git

Lattice-Based Dynamic $k$-Times Anonymous Authentication with Attribute-Based Credentials

With the development of Internet, privacy has become a primary concern of users. Anonymous authentication plays an important role in privacy-preserving systems. A $k$-times anonymous authentication ($k$-TAA) scheme allows a group member to anonymously authenticate to the application provider up to $k$ times. Considering quantum computing attacks, lattice-based $k$-TAA was introduced. However, existing schemes neither support the dynamic granting and revocation of users nor enable users to control the release of their attributes. In this paper, we construct the first lattice-based dynamic $k$-TAA, which offers limited times anonymous authentication, dynamic member management, attribute-based authentication, and post-quantum security. We present a concrete construction, and reduce its security to standard complexity assumptions. Notably, compared with existing lattice-based $k$-TAA, our scheme is efficient in terms of communication cost.

asLLR: LLM based Leads Ranking in Auto Sales

In the area of commercial auto sales system, high-quality lead score sequencing determines the priority of a sale's work and is essential for optimizing the efficiency of the sales system. Since CRM (Customer Relationship Management) system contains plenty of textual interaction features between sales and customers, traditional techniques such as Click Through Rate (CTR) prediction struggle with processing the complex information inherent in natural language features, which limits their effectiveness in sales lead ranking. Bridging this gap is critical for enhancing business intelligence and decision-making. Recently, the emergence of large language models (LLMs) has opened new avenues for improving recommendation systems, this study introduces asLLR (LLM-based Leads Ranking in Auto Sales), which integrates CTR loss and Question Answering (QA) loss within a decoder-only large language model architecture. This integration enables the simultaneous modeling of both tabular and natural language features. To verify the efficacy of asLLR, we constructed an innovative dataset derived from the customer lead pool of a prominent new energy vehicle brand, with 300,000 training samples and 40,000 testing samples. Our experimental results demonstrate that asLLR effectively models intricate patterns in commercial datasets, achieving the AUC of 0.8127, surpassing traditional CTR estimation methods by 0.0231. Moreover, asLLR enhances CTR models when used for extracting text features by 0.0058. In real-world sales scenarios, after rigorous online A/B testing, asLLR increased the sales volume by about 9.5% compared to the traditional method, providing a valuable tool for business intelligence and operational decision-making.

MoFE-Time: Mixture of Frequency Domain Experts for Time-Series Forecasting Models

As a prominent data modality task, time series forecasting plays a pivotal role in diverse applications. With the remarkable advancements in Large Language Models (LLMs), the adoption of LLMs as the foundational architecture for time series modeling has gained significant attention. Although existing models achieve some success, they rarely both model time and frequency characteristics in a pretraining-finetuning paradigm leading to suboptimal performance in predictions of complex time series, which requires both modeling periodicity and prior pattern knowledge of signals. We propose MoFE-Time, an innovative time series forecasting model that integrates time and frequency domain features within a Mixture of Experts (MoE) network. Moreover, we use the pretraining-finetuning paradigm as our training framework to effectively transfer prior pattern knowledge across pretraining and finetuning datasets with different periodicity distributions. Our method introduces both frequency and time cells as experts after attention modules and leverages the MoE routing mechanism to construct multidimensional sparse representations of input signals. In experiments on six public benchmarks, MoFE-Time has achieved new state-of-the-art performance, reducing MSE and MAE by 6.95% and 6.02% compared to the representative methods Time-MoE. Beyond the existing evaluation benchmarks, we have developed a proprietary dataset, NEV-sales, derived from real-world business scenarios. Our method achieves outstanding results on this dataset, underscoring the effectiveness of the MoFE-Time model in practical commercial applications.

Self-morphing of elastic bilayers induced by mismatch strain: deformation simulation and bio-inspired design

The process of self-morphing in curved surfaces found in nature, such as with the growth of flowers and leaves, has generated interest in the study of self-morphing bilayers, which has been used in many soft robots or switchers. However, previous research has primarily focused on materials or bilayer fabrication technologies. The self-morphing mechanism and process have been rarely investigated, despite their importance. This study proposed a new deformation simulation method for self-morphing bilayers based on a checkerboard-based discrete differential geometry approach. This new method achieved higher efficiency than traditional finite element methods while still maintaining accuracy. It was also effective in handling complex finite strain situations. Finally, the simulation model was used to design three self-morphing bilayers inspired by folding flowers, spiral grass, and conical seashells. These designs further prove the effectiveness of the proposed method. The results of this study propose a good method for predicting deformation and designing self-morphing bilayers and provide a useful viewpoint for using geometrical methods to solve mechanical problems.

Oriented Feature Alignment for Fine-grained Object Recognition in High-Resolution Satellite Imagery

Oriented object detection in remote sensing images has made great progress in recent years. However, most of the current methods only focus on detecting targets, and cannot distinguish fine-grained objects well in complex scenes. In this technical report, we analyzed the key issues of fine-grained object recognition, and use an oriented feature alignment network (OFA-Net) to achieve high-performance fine-grained oriented object recognition in optical remote sensing images. OFA-Net achieves accurate object localization through a rotated bounding boxes refinement module. On this basis, the boundary-constrained rotation feature alignment module is applied to achieve local feature extraction, which is beneficial to fine-grained object classification. The single model of our method achieved mAP of 46.51\% in the GaoFen competition and won 3rd place in the ISPRS benchmark with the mAP of 43.73\%.
