Study of dynamical dark energy using DESI DR2 BAO, CMB, and Type Ia Supernovae data

Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Collaboration reported an evidence for dynamical dark energy model using baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) measurements from DESI Data Release 2 (DR2), cosmic microwave background (CMB), and three Type Ia Supernovae (SNe) data (Pantheon+, Union3, and DES-SN5YR) recently. The significances are from $2.8\sim4.2\sigma$ depending on which SNe sample is used, and the highest significance is obtained based on the DES-SN5YR data. But more recently, Dark Energy Survey (DES) Collaboration recalibrated the DES-SN5YR data, and a significance of only $3.2\sigma$ is obtained based on the calibrated data, which is called DES-Dovekie. In this work, we perform a comprehensive analysis of five representative dynamical dark energy parametrization models, including Chevallier-Polarski-Linder (CPL), Barboza-Alcaniz (BA), exponential (EXP), logarithmic (LOG), and Jassal-Bagla-Padmanabhan (JBP), using DESI DR2 BAO, Planck CMB, ACT DR6, and SNe data from Pantheon+, Union3, and DES-Dovekie. Similarly, a significance of around $3\sigma$ is obtained based on the DES-Dovekie data. And the significances are $2.1\sim3.7\sigma$ for different SNe samples and different parametrization models, indicating an evolutionary dark energy dynamics. Furthermore, a phantom-like behavior in the past and has transitioned into quintessence-like behavior today for the dynamical dark energy is preferred.

Coloring the Noise: Adversarial Sobolev Alignment for Faithful Image Super Resolution

Generative priors in Image Super-Resolution (SR) often compromise faithful restoration, we attribute this limitation to a fundamental spectral misalignment between isotropic objectives and the intrinsic natural image manifold. While Direct Preference Optimization offers a path to alignment, its reliance on spectrally flat Gaussian noise fails to distinguish authentic high-frequency details from hallucinations. To bridge this geometric gap, we propose ASASR, a theoretically grounded framework that recasts the generative flow into a Sobolev-induced Riemannian geometry by explicitly coloring the noise transition kernel to mirror natural spectral decay. Driving this geometric alignment, we integrate a parametric adversary grounded in the Riesz Representation Theorem, which synthesizes targeted negative samples equivalent to worst-case Sobolev gradients to direct optimization along the tangent space of plausible structural failures. Extensive evaluations demonstrate that ASASR outperforms leading generative baselines, particularly in preserving spectral consistency and structural fidelity, offering a robust solution that effectively mitigates artifacts.

Tuning Real-World Image Restoration at Inference: A Test-Time Scaling Paradigm for Flow Matching Models

Although diffusion-based real-world image restoration (Real-IR) has achieved remarkable progress, efficiently leveraging ultra-large-scale pre-trained text-to-image (T2I) models and fully exploiting their potential remain significant challenges. To address this issue, we propose ResFlow-Tuner, an image restoration framework based on the state-of-the-art flow matching model, FLUX.1-dev, which integrates unified multi-modal fusion (UMMF) with test-time scaling (TTS) to achieve unprecedented restoration performance. Our approach fully leverages the advantages of the Multi-Modal Diffusion Transformer (MM-DiT) architecture by encoding multi-modal conditions into a unified sequence that guides the synthesis of high-quality images. Furthermore, we introduce a training-free test-time scaling paradigm tailored for image restoration. During inference, this technique dynamically steers the denoising direction through feedback from a reward model (RM), thereby achieving significant performance gains with controllable computational overhead. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance across multiple standard benchmarks. This work not only validates the powerful capabilities of the flow matching model in low-level vision tasks but, more importantly, proposes a novel and efficient inference-time scaling paradigm suitable for large pre-trained models.

YAYI 2: Multilingual Open-Source Large Language Models

As the latest advancements in natural language processing, large language models (LLMs) have achieved human-level language understanding and generation abilities in many real-world tasks, and even have been regarded as a potential path to the artificial general intelligence. To better facilitate research on LLMs, many open-source LLMs, such as Llama 2 and Falcon, have recently been proposed and gained comparable performances to proprietary models. However, these models are primarily designed for English scenarios and exhibit poor performances in Chinese contexts. In this technical report, we propose YAYI 2, including both base and chat models, with 30 billion parameters. YAYI 2 is pre-trained from scratch on a multilingual corpus which contains 2.65 trillion tokens filtered by our pre-training data processing pipeline. The base model is aligned with human values through supervised fine-tuning with millions of instructions and reinforcement learning from human feedback. Extensive experiments on multiple benchmarks, such as MMLU and CMMLU, consistently demonstrate that the proposed YAYI 2 outperforms other similar sized open-source models.

Overlapping oriented imbalanced ensemble learning method based on projective clustering and stagewise hybrid sampling

The challenge of imbalanced learning lies not only in class imbalance problem, but also in the class overlapping problem which is complex. However, most of the existing algorithms mainly focus on the former. The limitation prevents the existing methods from breaking through. To address this limitation, this paper proposes an ensemble learning algorithm based on dual clustering and stage-wise hybrid sampling (DCSHS). The DCSHS has three parts. Firstly, we design a projection clustering combination framework (PCC) guided by Davies-Bouldin clustering effectiveness index (DBI), which is used to obtain high-quality clusters and combine them to obtain a set of cross-complete subsets (CCS) with balanced class and low overlapping. Secondly, according to the characteristics of subset classes, a stage-wise hybrid sampling algorithm is designed to realize the de-overlapping and balancing of subsets. Finally, a projective clustering transfer mapping mechanism (CTM) is constructed for all processed subsets by means of transfer learning, thereby reducing class overlapping and explore structure information of samples. The major advantage of our algorithm is that it can exploit the intersectionality of the CCS to realize the soft elimination of overlapping majority samples, and learn as much information of overlapping samples as possible, thereby enhancing the class overlapping while class balancing. In the experimental section, more than 30 public datasets and over ten representative algorithms are chosen for verification. The experimental results show that the DCSHS is significantly best in terms of various evaluation criteria.

A new Stack Autoencoder: Neighbouring Sample Envelope Embedded Stack Autoencoder Ensemble Model

Stack autoencoder (SAE), as a representative deep network, has unique and excellent performance in feature learning, and has received extensive attention from researchers. However, existing deep SAEs focus on original samples without considering the hierarchical structural information between samples. To address this limitation, this paper proposes a new SAE model-neighbouring envelope embedded stack autoencoder ensemble (NE_ESAE). Firstly, the neighbouring sample envelope learning mechanism (NSELM) is proposed for preprocessing of input of SAE. NSELM constructs sample pairs by combining neighbouring samples. Besides, the NSELM constructs a multilayer sample spaces by multilayer iterative mean clustering, which considers the similar samples and generates layers of envelope samples with hierarchical structural information. Second, an embedded stack autoencoder (ESAE) is proposed and trained in each layer of sample space to consider the original samples during training and in the network structure, thereby better finding the relationship between original feature samples and deep feature samples. Third, feature reduction and base classifiers are conducted on the layers of envelope samples respectively, and output classification results of every layer of samples. Finally, the classification results of the layers of envelope sample space are fused through the ensemble mechanism. In the experimental section, the proposed algorithm is validated with over ten representative public datasets. The results show that our method significantly has better performance than existing traditional feature learning methods and the representative deep autoencoders.

Envelope imbalanced ensemble model with deep sample learning and local-global structure consistency

The class imbalance problem is important and challenging. Ensemble approaches are widely used to tackle this problem because of their effectiveness. However, existing ensemble methods are always applied into original samples, while not considering the structure information among original samples. The limitation will prevent the imbalanced learning from being better. Besides, research shows that the structure information among samples includes local and global structure information. Based on the analysis above, an imbalanced ensemble algorithm with the deep sample pre-envelope network (DSEN) and local-global structure consistency mechanism (LGSCM) is proposed here to solve the problem.This algorithm can guarantee high-quality deep envelope samples for considering the local manifold and global structures information, which is helpful for imbalance learning. First, the deep sample envelope pre-network (DSEN) is designed to mine structure information among samples.Then, the local manifold structure metric (LMSM) and global structure distribution metric (GSDM) are designed to construct LGSCM to enhance distribution consistency of interlayer samples. Next, the DSEN and LGSCM are put together to form the final deep sample envelope network (DSEN-LG). After that, base classifiers are applied on the layers of deep samples respectively.Finally, the predictive results from base classifiers are fused through bagging ensemble learning mechanism. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, forty-four public datasets and more than ten representative relevant algorithms are chosen for verification. The experimental results show that the algorithm is significantly better than other imbalanced ensemble algorithms.

Subject Enveloped Deep Sample Fuzzy Ensemble Learning Algorithm of Parkinson's Speech Data

Parkinson disease (PD)'s speech recognition is an effective way for its diagnosis, which has become a hot and difficult research area in recent years. As we know, there are large corpuses (segments) within one subject. However, too large segments will increase the complexity of the classification model. Besides, the clinicians interested in finding diagnostic speech markers that reflect the pathology of the whole subject. Since the optimal relevant features of each speech sample segment are different, it is difficult to find the uniform diagnostic speech markers. Therefore, it is necessary to reconstruct the existing large segments within one subject into few segments even one segment within one subject, which can facilitate the extraction of relevant speech features to characterize diagnostic markers for the whole subject. To address this problem, an enveloped deep speech sample learning algorithm for Parkinson's subjects based on multilayer fuzzy c-mean (MlFCM) clustering and interlayer consistency preservation is proposed in this paper. The algorithm can be used to achieve intra-subject sample reconstruction for Parkinson's disease (PD) to obtain a small number of high-quality prototype sample segments. At the end of the paper, several representative PD speech datasets are selected and compared with the state-of-the-art related methods, respectively. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is effective signifcantly.

Envelope Imbalance Learning Algorithm based on Multilayer Fuzzy C-means Clustering and Minimum Interlayer discrepancy

Imbalanced learning is important and challenging since the problem of the classification of imbalanced datasets is prevalent in machine learning and data mining fields. Sampling approaches are proposed to address this issue, and cluster-based oversampling methods have shown great potential as they aim to simultaneously tackle between-class and within-class imbalance issues. However, all existing clustering methods are based on a one-time approach. Due to the lack of a priori knowledge, improper setting of the number of clusters often exists, which leads to poor clustering performance. Besides, the existing methods are likely to generate noisy instances. To solve these problems, this paper proposes a deep instance envelope network-based imbalanced learning algorithm with the multilayer fuzzy c-means (MlFCM) and a minimum interlayer discrepancy mechanism based on the maximum mean discrepancy (MIDMD). This algorithm can guarantee high quality balanced instances using a deep instance envelope network in the absence of prior knowledge. In the experimental section, thirty-three popular public datasets are used for verification, and over ten representative algorithms are used for comparison. The experimental results show that the proposed approach significantly outperforms other popular methods.

Subject Envelope based Multitype Reconstruction Algorithm of Speech Samples of Parkinson's Disease

The risk of Parkinson's disease (PD) is extremely serious, and PD speech recognition is an effective method of diagnosis nowadays. However, due to the influence of the disease stage, corpus, and other factors on data collection, the ability of every samples within one subject to reflect the status of PD vary. No samples are useless totally, and not samples are 100% perfect. This characteristic means that it is not suitable just to remove some samples or keep some samples. It is necessary to consider the sample transformation for obtaining high quality new samples. Unfortunately, existing PD speech recognition methods focus mainly on feature learning and classifier design rather than sample learning, and few methods consider the sample transformation. To solve the problem above, a PD speech sample transformation algorithm based on multitype reconstruction operators is proposed in this paper. The algorithm is divided into four major steps. Three types of reconstruction operators are designed in the algorithm: types A, B and C. Concerning the type A operator, the original dataset is directly reconstructed by designing a linear transformation to obtain the first dataset. The type B operator is designed for clustering and linear transformation of the dataset to obtain the second new dataset. The third operator, namely, the type C operator, reconstructs the dataset by clustering and convolution to obtain the third dataset. Finally, the base classifier is trained based on the three new datasets, and then the classification results are fused by decision weighting. In the experimental section, two representative PD speech datasets are used for verification. The results show that the proposed algorithm is effective. Compared with other algorithms, the proposed algorithm achieves apparent improvements in terms of classification accuracy.

FA-GAN: Fused Attentive Generative Adversarial Networks for MRI Image Super-Resolution

High-resolution magnetic resonance images can provide fine-grained anatomical information, but acquiring such data requires a long scanning time. In this paper, a framework called the Fused Attentive Generative Adversarial Networks(FA-GAN) is proposed to generate the super-resolution MR image from low-resolution magnetic resonance images, which can reduce the scanning time effectively but with high resolution MR images. In the framework of the FA-GAN, the local fusion feature block, consisting of different three-pass networks by using different convolution kernels, is proposed to extract image features at different scales. And the global feature fusion module, including the channel attention module, the self-attention module, and the fusion operation, is designed to enhance the important features of the MR image. Moreover, the spectral normalization process is introduced to make the discriminator network stable. 40 sets of 3D magnetic resonance images (each set of images contains 256 slices) are used to train the network, and 10 sets of images are used to test the proposed method. The experimental results show that the PSNR and SSIM values of the super-resolution magnetic resonance image generated by the proposed FA-GAN method are higher than the state-of-the-art reconstruction methods.

A Survey of Deep Reinforcement Learning Algorithms for Motion Planning and Control of Autonomous Vehicles

In this survey, we systematically summarize the current literature on studies that apply reinforcement learning (RL) to the motion planning and control of autonomous vehicles. Many existing contributions can be attributed to the pipeline approach, which consists of many hand-crafted modules, each with a functionality selected for the ease of human interpretation. However, this approach does not automatically guarantee maximal performance due to the lack of a system-level optimization. Therefore, this paper also presents a growing trend of work that falls into the end-to-end approach, which typically offers better performance and smaller system scales. However, their performance also suffers from the lack of expert data and generalization issues. Finally, the remaining challenges applying deep RL algorithms on autonomous driving are summarized, and future research directions are also presented to tackle these challenges.

Meta-Adversarial Inverse Reinforcement Learning for Decision-making Tasks

Learning from demonstrations has made great progress over the past few years. However, it is generally data hungry and task specific. In other words, it requires a large amount of data to train a decent model on a particular task, and the model often fails to generalize to new tasks that have a different distribution. In practice, demonstrations from new tasks will be continuously observed and the data might be unlabeled or only partially labeled. Therefore, it is desirable for the trained model to adapt to new tasks that have limited data samples available. In this work, we build an adaptable imitation learning model based on the integration of Meta-learning and Adversarial Inverse Reinforcement Learning (Meta-AIRL). We exploit the adversarial learning and inverse reinforcement learning mechanisms to learn policies and reward functions simultaneously from available training tasks and then adapt them to new tasks with the meta-learning framework. Simulation results show that the adapted policy trained with Meta-AIRL can effectively learn from limited number of demonstrations, and quickly reach the performance comparable to that of the experts on unseen tasks.

Integrated Age Estimation Mechanism

Machine-learning-based age estimation has received lots of attention. Traditional age estimation mechanism focuses estimation age error, but ignores that there is a deviation between the estimated age and real age due to disease. Pathological age estimation mechanism the author proposed before introduces age deviation to solve the above problem and improves classification capability of the estimated age significantly. However,it does not consider the age estimation error of the normal control (NC) group and results in a larger error between the estimated age and real age of NC group. Therefore, an integrated age estimation mechanism based on Decision-Level fusion of error and deviation orientation model is proposed to solve the problem.Firstly, the traditional age estimation and pathological age estimation mechanisms are weighted together.Secondly, their optimal weights are obtained by minimizing mean absolute error (MAE) between the estimated age and real age of normal people. In the experimental section, several representative age-related datasets are used for verification of the proposed method. The results show that the proposed age estimation mechanism achieves a good tradeoff effect of age estimation. It not only improves the classification ability of the estimated age, but also reduces the age estimation error of the NC group. In general, the proposed age estimation mechanism is effective. Additionally, the mechanism is a framework mechanism that can be used to construct different specific age estimation algorithms, contributing to relevant research.

Meta Reinforcement Learning-Based Lane Change Strategy for Autonomous Vehicles

Recent advances in supervised learning and reinforcement learning have provided new opportunities to apply related methodologies to automated driving. However, there are still challenges to achieve automated driving maneuvers in dynamically changing environments. Supervised learning algorithms such as imitation learning can generalize to new environments by training on a large amount of labeled data, however, it can be often impractical or cost-prohibitive to obtain sufficient data for each new environment. Although reinforcement learning methods can mitigate this data-dependency issue by training the agent in a trial-and-error way, they still need to re-train policies from scratch when adapting to new environments. In this paper, we thus propose a meta reinforcement learning (MRL) method to improve the agent's generalization capabilities to make automated lane-changing maneuvers at different traffic environments, which are formulated as different traffic congestion levels. Specifically, we train the model at light to moderate traffic densities and test it at a new heavy traffic density condition. We use both collision rate and success rate to quantify the safety and effectiveness of the proposed model. A benchmark model is developed based on a pretraining method, which uses the same network structure and training tasks as our proposed model for fair comparison. The simulation results shows that the proposed method achieves an overall success rate up to 20% higher than the benchmark model when it is generalized to the new environment of heavy traffic density. The collision rate is also reduced by up to 18% than the benchmark model. Finally, the proposed model shows more stable and efficient generalization capabilities adapting to the new environment, and it can achieve 100% successful rate and 0% collision rate with only a few steps of gradient updates.

Deep Double-Side Learning Ensemble Model for Few-Shot Parkinson Speech Recognition

Diagnosis and therapeutic effect assessment of Parkinson disease based on voice data are very important,but its few-shot learning problem is challenging.Although deep learning is good at automatic feature extraction, it suffers from few-shot learning problem. Therefore, the general effective method is first conduct feature extraction based on prior knowledge, and then carry out feature reduction for subsequent classification. However, there are two major problems: 1) Structural information among speech features has not been mined and new features of higher quality have not been reconstructed. 2) Structural information between data samples has not been mined and new samples with higher quality have not been reconstructed. To solve these two problems, based on the existing Parkinson speech feature data set, a deep double-side learning ensemble model is designed in this paper that can reconstruct speech features and samples deeply and simultaneously. As to feature reconstruction, an embedded deep stacked group sparse auto-encoder is designed in this paper to conduct nonlinear feature transformation, so as to acquire new high-level deep features, and then the deep features are fused with original speech features by L1 regularization feature selection method. As to speech sample reconstruction, a deep sample learning algorithm is designed in this paper based on iterative mean clustering to conduct samples transformation, so as to obtain new high-level deep samples. Finally, the bagging ensemble learning mode is adopted to fuse the deep feature learning algorithm and the deep samples learning algorithm together, thereby constructing a deep double-side learning ensemble model. At the end of this paper, two representative speech datasets of Parkinson's disease were used for verification. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm are effective.

Hybrid Embedded Deep Stacked Sparse Autoencoder with w_LPPD SVM Ensemble

Deep learning is a kind of feature learning method with strong nonliear feature transformation and becomes more and more important in many fields of artificial intelligence. Deep autoencoder is one representative method of the deep learning methods, and can effectively extract abstract the information of datasets. However, it does not consider the complementarity between the deep features and original features during deep feature transformation. Besides, it suffers from small sample problem. In order to solve these problems, a novel deep autoencoder - hybrid feature embedded stacked sparse autoencoder(HESSAE) has been proposed in this paper. HFESAE is capable to learn discriminant deep features with the help of embedding original features to filter weak hidden-layer outputs during training. For the issue that class representation ability of abstract information is limited by small sample problem, a feature fusion strategy has been designed aiming to combining abstract information learned by HFESAE with original feature and obtain hybrid features for feature reduction. The strategy is hybrid feature selection strategy based on L1 regularization followed by an support vector machine(SVM) ensemble model, in which weighted local discriminant preservation projection (w_LPPD), is designed and employed on each base classifier. At the end of this paper, several representative public datasets are used to verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. The experimental results demonstrated that, the proposed feature learning method yields superior performance compared to other existing and state of art feature learning algorithms including some representative deep autoencoder methods.

Classification Algorithm of Speech Data of Parkinsons Disease Based on Convolution Sparse Kernel Transfer Learning with Optimal Kernel and Parallel Sample Feature Selection

Labeled speech data from patients with Parkinsons disease (PD) are scarce, and the statistical distributions of training and test data differ significantly in the existing datasets. To solve these problems, dimensional reduction and sample augmentation must be considered. In this paper, a novel PD classification algorithm based on sparse kernel transfer learning combined with a parallel optimization of samples and features is proposed. Sparse transfer learning is used to extract effective structural information of PD speech features from public datasets as source domain data, and the fast ADDM iteration is improved to enhance the information extraction performance. To implement the parallel optimization, the potential relationships between samples and features are considered to obtain high-quality combined features. First, features are extracted from a specific public speech dataset to construct a feature dataset as the source domain. Then, the PD target domain, including the training and test datasets, is encoded by convolution sparse coding, which can extract more in-depth information. Next, parallel optimization is implemented. To further improve the classification performance, a convolution kernel optimization mechanism is designed. Using two representative public datasets and one self-constructed dataset, the experiments compare over thirty relevant algorithms. The results show that when taking the Sakar dataset, MaxLittle dataset and DNSH dataset as target domains, the proposed algorithm achieves obvious improvements in classification accuracy. The study also found large improvements in the algorithms in this paper compared with nontransfer learning approaches, demonstrating that transfer learning is both more effective and has a more acceptable time cost.
