New Mid-Band (FR3, 6-24 GHz) XL-MIMO for 6G: Channel Modeling, Algorithm Evaluation, and Field Trials

The new mid-band (FR3, 6-24 GHz) spectrum is expected to play an important role in future 6G networks by providing a favorable balance among coverage, capacity, and deployment feasibility. Meanwhile, extremely large-scale multiple-input multiple-output (XL-MIMO) has emerged as a key enabling technology to exploit the propagation and spatial multiplexing potential of these frequency bands. Firstly, this paper provides a systematic review of spectrum allocation and standardization activities for new mid-band spectrum, together with the 6G spectrum planning strategies of countries and regions. Secondly, the wideband massive MIMO channel sounder is also introduced, which is specially developed for channel measurements of new mid-band with over a thousand elements. Thirdly, propagation characteristics and channel modeling approaches of four representative XL-MIMO architectures, including co-located, cell-free, and intelligent XL-MIMO, are comprehensively reviewed and analyzed, with particular emphasis on near-field propagation, spatial non-stationarity, and capacity performance. Then, recent advances in channel estimation, beamforming, and artificial-intelligence-assisted signal processing are summarized. In addition, the performance of new mid-band XL-MIMO systems equipped with 1536 and 768 antenna elements is comparatively evaluated. Finally, real communication environment prototype system field trials conducted in the Upper 6 GHz (U6GHz) band are used to investigate practical system performance under realistic deployment conditions. The results indicate that the target signal-to-noise ratio is a critical factor affecting XL-MIMO performance in the U6GHz band.

Nonreciprocal magnon-magnon entanglement in a spinning cavity-magnon system

Cavity-magnon systems, combining magnons and photons, offer a versatile platform for studying quantum entanglement and advancing quantum information science. In this work, we propose a scheme for generating nonreciprocal magnon-magnon entanglement in a hybrid system consisting of two yttrium iron garnet spheres coupled to a spinning whispering-gallery-mode cavity. By leveraging the magnon Kerr nonlinearity and the Sagnac effect arising from the cavity rotation, we show that the entanglement can be substantially enhanced, and the resulting entanglement exhibits pronounced nonreciprocal characteristics. Furthermore, our scheme demonstrates that the entanglement remains robust against thermal noise and persists at bath temperatures up to 100 mK. This work underscores the potential of spinning cavity-magnon systems as a versatile platform for realizing nonreciprocal quantum devices and facilitating the development of quantum technologies.

XDM: Improving Sequential Deep Matching with Unclicked User Behaviors for Recommender System

Deep learning-based sequential recommender systems have recently attracted increasing attention from both academia and industry. Most of industrial Embedding-Based Retrieval (EBR) system for recommendation share the similar ideas with sequential recommenders. Among them, how to comprehensively capture sequential user interest is a fundamental problem. However, most existing sequential recommendation models take as input clicked or purchased behavior sequences from user-item interactions. This leads to incomprehensive user representation and sub-optimal model performance, since they ignore the complete user behavior exposure data, i.e., items impressed yet unclicked by users. In this work, we attempt to incorporate and model those unclicked item sequences using a new learning approach in order to explore better sequential recommendation technique. An efficient triplet metric learning algorithm is proposed to appropriately learn the representation of unclicked items. Our method can be simply integrated with existing sequential recommendation models by a confidence fusion network and further gain better user representation. The offline experimental results based on real-world E-commerce data demonstrate the effectiveness and verify the importance of unclicked items in sequential recommendation. Moreover we deploy our new model (named XDM) into EBR of recommender system at Taobao, outperforming the deployed previous generation SDM.

Limit theorems on counting measures for a branching random walk with immigration in a random environment

We consider a branching random walk with immigration in a random environment, where the environment is a stationary and ergodic sequence indexed by time. We focus on the asymptotic properties of the sequence of measures $(Z_n)$ that count the number of particles of generation $n$ located in a Borel set of real line. In the present work, a series of limit theorems related to the above counting measures are established, including a central limit theorem, a moderate deviation principle and a large deviation result as well as a convergence theorem of the free energy.

Using Argument-based Features to Predict and Analyse Review Helpfulness

We study the helpful product reviews identification problem in this paper. We observe that the evidence-conclusion discourse relations, also known as arguments, often appear in product reviews, and we hypothesise that some argument-based features, e.g. the percentage of argumentative sentences, the evidences-conclusions ratios, are good indicators of helpful reviews. To validate this hypothesis, we manually annotate arguments in 110 hotel reviews, and investigate the effectiveness of several combinations of argument-based features. Experiments suggest that, when being used together with the argument-based features, the state-of-the-art baseline features can enjoy a performance boost (in terms of F1) of 11.01\% in average.

Crowdsourcing Argumentation Structures in Chinese Hotel Reviews

Argumentation mining aims at automatically extracting the premises-claim discourse structures in natural language texts. There is a great demand for argumentation corpora for customer reviews. However, due to the controversial nature of the argumentation annotation task, there exist very few large-scale argumentation corpora for customer reviews. In this work, we novelly use the crowdsourcing technique to collect argumentation annotations in Chinese hotel reviews. As the first Chinese argumentation dataset, our corpus includes 4814 argument component annotations and 411 argument relation annotations, and its annotations qualities are comparable to some widely used argumentation corpora in other languages.
