Baseband-Efficient WMMSE Precoding: From a Signal Weighting Cost Perspective

For downlink transmission in massive multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) systems, conventional precoding research heavily focuses on reducing the computational complexity of precoding matrix design, while largely overlooking another critical bottleneck: the substantial signal weighting cost incurred by repeatedly applying the precoder to high-speed data streams. To address both challenges simultaneously, this paper proposes a novel sparse precoding framework tailored for fully-digital architectures. Within this framework, from the sum-rate maximization perspective, we design two sparse precoding architectures: a common-support row-sparse architecture and a user-specific row-sparse architecture, so as to reduce the number of multiplication operations required in baseband signal weighting without sacrificing system capacity. For the formulated mixed-integer non-linear programming (MINLP) problem, we rigorously prove, for the first time, that the optimal precoder under both sparse architectures strictly resides in a specific low-dimensional subspace determined by the channel matrices, thereby reducing the dimensionality of the optimization variables. Based on this insight, an alternating optimization algorithm is developed within the weighted minimum mean square error (WMMSE) framework to jointly optimize sparse beam selection and low-dimensional precoding coefficients. The combinatorial beam selection problem is handled using an efficient penalty-based majorize-minimization (MM) method, yielding a low-complexity closed-form solution. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme achieves near-optimal sum-rate performance while substantially reducing both the precoding computation complexity and the overall signal weighting cost.

Beyond Pass-by-Pass Optimization: Intent-Driven IR Optimization with Large Language Models

Modern compilers optimize programs through a sequence of modular passes over intermediate representations (IR). While this pass-by-pass paradigm offers engineering benefits, it suffers from a pass coordination problem: locally beneficial transformations may block more profitable optimizations in later stages. This limitation stems from the lack of an explicit notion of optimization intent, defined as a holistic strategy for coordinating multiple transformations toward a global performance objective. Recent LLM-based approaches formulate IR optimization as an end-to-end generation task, thereby avoiding the traditional pass-by-pass structure. However, optimization intent remains implicit in these methods, forcing models to jointly infer optimization strategy and generate low-level transformations, which limits both correctness and performance. We propose IntOpt, the first intent-driven IR optimizer that explicitly separates high-level optimization intent from low-level analysis and transformation. IntOpt organizes IR optimization into three stages: intent formulation, intent refinement, and intent realization, enabling globally coordinated transformations. Experiments show that IntOpt achieves 90.5% verified correctness and 2.660x average speedup on 200-program test set, outperforming state-of-the-art LLM-based optimizers in both correctness and performance, and surpassing modern compiler with the -O3 option on 37 benchmarks with speedups of up to 272.60x.

Domain-Expert-Guided Hybrid Mixture-of-Experts for Medical AI: Integrating Data-Driven Learning with Clinical Priors

Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models increase representational capacity with modest computational cost, but their effectiveness in specialized domains such as medicine is limited by small datasets. In contrast, clinical practice offers rich expert knowledge, such as physician gaze patterns and diagnostic heuristics, that models cannot reliably learn from limited data. Combining data-driven experts, which capture novel patterns, with domain-expert-guided experts, which encode accumulated clinical insights, provides complementary strengths for robust and clinically meaningful learning. To this end, we propose Domain-Knowledge-Guided Hybrid MoE (DKGH-MoE), a plug-and-play and interpretable module that unifies data-driven learning with domain expertise. DKGH-MoE integrates a data-driven MoE to extract novel features from raw imaging data, and a domain-expert-guided MoE incorporates clinical priors, specifically clinician eye-gaze cues, to emphasize regions of high diagnostic relevance. By integrating domain expert insights with data-driven features, DKGH-MoE improves both performance and interpretability.

Antiferromagnetic Skyrmion-Based Logic Gates Controlled by Electric Currents and Fields

Antiferromagnets are promising materials for future spintronic applications due to their unique properties including zero stray fields, robustness versus external magnetic fields and ultrafast dynamics, which have attracted extensive interest in recent years. In this work, we investigate the dynamics of isolated skyrmions in an antiferromagnetic nanotrack with a voltage-gated region. It is found that the skyrmion can be jointly controlled by the driving current and the voltage-controlled magnetic anisotropy gradient. We further propose a design of logic computing gates based on the manipulation of antiferromagnetic skyrmions, which is numerically realized combining several interactions and phenomena, including the spin Hall effect, voltage-controlled magnetic anisotropy effect, skyrmion-skyrmion interaction, and skyrmion-edge interaction. The proposed logic gates can perform the basic Boolean operations of the logic AND, OR, NOT, NAND and NOR gates. Our results may have a great impact on fundamental physics, and be useful for designing future non-volatile logic computing devices with ultra-low energy consumption and ultra-high storage density.

Dynamics of ferromagnetic bimerons driven by spin currents and magnetic fields

Magnetic bimeron composed of two merons is a topological counterpart of magnetic skyrmion in in-plane magnets, which can be used as the nonvolatile information carrier in spintronic devices. Here we analytically and numerically study the dynamics of ferromagnetic bimerons driven by spin currents and magnetic fields. Numerical simulations demonstrate that two bimerons with opposite signs of topological numbers can be created simultaneously in a ferromagnetic thin film via current-induced spin torques. The current-induced spin torques can also drive the bimeron and its speed is analytically derived, which agrees with the numerical results. Since the bimerons with opposite topological numbers can coexist and have opposite drift directions, two-lane racetracks can be built in order to accurately encode the data bits. In addition, the dynamics of bimerons induced by magnetic field gradients and alternating magnetic fields are investigated. It is found that the bimeron driven by alternating magnetic fields can propagate along a certain direction. Moreover, combining a suitable magnetic field gradient, the Magnus-force-induced transverse motion can be completely suppressed, which implies that there is no skyrmion Hall effect. Our results are useful for understanding of the bimeron dynamics and may provide guidelines for building future bimeron-based spintronic devices.

Minimum Enclosing Circle of a Set of Static Points with Dynamic Weight from One Free Point

Given a set $S$ of $n$ static points and a free point $p$ in the Euclidean plane, we study a new variation of the minimum enclosing circle problem, in which a dynamic weight that equals to the reciprocal of the distance from the free point $p$ to the undetermined circle center is included. In this work, we prove the optimal solution of the new problem is unique and lies on the boundary of the farthest-point Voronoi diagram of $S$, once $p$ does not coincide with any vertex of the convex hull of $S$. We propose a tree structure constructed from the boundary of the farthest-point Voronoi diagram and use the hierarchical relationship between edges to locate the optimal solution. The plane could be divide into at most $3n-4$ non-overlapping regions. When $p$ lies in one of the regions, the optimal solution locates at one node or lies on the interior of one edge in the boundary of the farthest-point Voronoi diagram. Moreover, we apply the new variation to calculate the maximum displacement of one point $p$ under the condition that the displacements of points in $S$ are restricted in 2D rigid motion.
