High-Discretization Method of Moments for Capacitance Calculation: A Cube and a Hollow Cylinder

This paper employs the method of moments (MOM) to calculate the capacitances of a cube and a hollow cylinder. For the cube, each face was divided into a maximum of 600 x 600 sub-areas. By fully exploiting the geometric symmetry between sub-areas and incorporating parallel computing, computational resources were significantly conserved. Our results show that the calculated capacitance of the cube first increases and then decreases as the number of sub-areas increases. When each face was divided into 90 x 90 sub-areas, the capacitance of the unit cube (with an edge length of 1 m) reached a maximum reference value of 73.519014 pF. This indicates that higher accuracy cannot be achieved merely by indefinitely increasing the number of discretized sub-areas. Subsequently, the method was applied to compute the capacitance of a hollow cylinder. The results were compared with numerical solutions based on Lekner's theoretical formula and Cavendish's experimental values, showing good agreement among the three.

ICT-NLP at SemEval-2026 Task 3: Less Is More -- Multilingual Encoder with Joint Training and Adaptive Ensemble for Dimensional Aspect Sentiment Regression

This paper describes our system to SemEval-2026 Task 3 Track A Subtask 1 on Dimensional Aspect Sentiment Regression (DimASR). We propose a lightweight and resource-efficient system built entirely on multilingual pre-trained encoders, without relying on LLMs or external corpora. We adopt joint multilingual and multi-domain training to facilitate cross-lingual transfer and alleviate data sparsity, introduce a bounded regression transformation that improves training stability while constraining predictions within the valid range, and employ an adaptive ensemble strategy via subset search to reduce prediction variance. Experimental results demonstrate that our system achieves strong and consistent performance, ranking 1st on zho-res, 2nd on zho-lap, and 3rd on jpn-hot, with all remaining datasets placed within the top half of participating teams.

Privacy Attack in Federated Learning is Not Easy: An Experimental Study

Federated learning (FL) is an emerging distributed machine learning paradigm proposed for privacy preservation. Unlike traditional centralized learning approaches, FL enables multiple users to collaboratively train a shared global model without disclosing their own data, thereby significantly reducing the potential risk of privacy leakage. However, recent studies have indicated that FL cannot entirely guarantee privacy protection, and attackers may still be able to extract users' private data through the communicated model gradients. Although numerous privacy attack FL algorithms have been developed, most are designed to reconstruct private data from a single step of calculated gradients. It remains uncertain whether these methods are effective in realistic federated environments or if they have other limitations. In this paper, we aim to help researchers better understand and evaluate the effectiveness of privacy attacks on FL. We analyze and discuss recent research papers on this topic and conduct experiments in a real FL environment to compare the performance of various attack methods. Our experimental results reveal that none of the existing state-of-the-art privacy attack algorithms can effectively breach private client data in realistic FL settings, even in the absence of defense strategies. This suggests that privacy attacks in FL are more challenging than initially anticipated.

First Application of Large Reactivity Measurement through Rod Drop Based on Three-Dimensional Space-Time Dynamics

Reactivity measurement is an essential part of a zero-power physics test, which is critical to reactor design and development. The rod drop experimental technique is used to measure the control rod worth in a zero-power physics test. The conventional rod drop experimental technique is limited by the spatial effect and the difference between the calculated static reactivity and measured dynamic reactivity; thus, the method must be improved. In this study, a modified rod drop experimental technique that constrains the detector neutron flux shape function based on three-dimensional space-time dynamics to reduce the reactivity perturbation and a new method for calculating the detector neutron flux shape function are proposed. Correction factors were determined using Monte Carlo N-Particle transport code and transient analysis code for a pressurized water reactor at the Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology and Xi'an Jiaotong University, and a large reactivity of over 2000 pcm was measured using the modified technique. This research evaluated the modified technique accuracy, studied the influence of the correction factors on the modification, and investigated the effect of constraining the shape function on the reactivity perturbation reduction caused by the difference between the calculated neutron flux and true value, using the new method to calculate the shape function of the detector neutron flux and avoiding the neutron detector response function (weighting factor) calculation.
