Node-as-Agent: Graph Agentic Network

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have achieved remarkable success in graph-based learning by propagating information among neighbor nodes via predefined aggregation mechanisms. However, such fixed schemes often suffer from two key limitations. First, they cannot handle the imbalance in node informativeness -- some nodes are rich in information, while others remain sparse. Second, predefined message passing primarily leverages local structural similarity while ignoring global semantic relationships across the graph, limiting the model's ability to capture distant but relevant information. We propose Retrieval-augmented Graph Agentic Network (ReaGAN), an agent-based framework that empowers each node with autonomous, node-level decision-making. Each node acts as an agent that independently plans its next action based on its internal memory, enabling node-level planning and adaptive message propagation. Additionally, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) allows nodes to access semantically relevant content and build global relationships in the graph. ReaGAN achieves competitive performance under few-shot in-context settings using a frozen LLM backbone without fine-tuning, showcasing the potential of agentic planning and local-global retrieval in graph learning.

MemEye: A Visual-Centric Evaluation Framework for Multimodal Agent Memory

Long-term agent memory is increasingly multimodal, yet existing evaluations rarely test whether agents preserve the visual evidence needed for later reasoning. In prior work, many visually grounded questions can be answered using only captions or textual traces, allowing answers to be inferred without preserving the fine-grained visual evidence. Meanwhile, harder cases that require reasoning over changing visual states are largely absent. Therefore, we introduce MemEye, a framework that evaluates memory capabilities from two dimensions: one measures the granularity of decisive visual evidence (from scene-level to pixel-level evidence), and the other measures how retrieved evidence must be used (from single evidence to evolutionary synthesis). Under this framework, we construct a new benchmark across 8 life-scenario tasks, with ablation-driven validation gates for assessing answerability, shortcut resistance, visual necessity, and reasoning structure. By evaluating 13 memory methods across 4 VLM backbones, we show that current architectures still struggle to preserve fine-grained visual details and reason about state changes over time. Our findings show that long-term multimodal memory depends on evidence routing, temporal tracking, and detail extraction.

MediQ-GAN: Quantum-Inspired GAN for High Resolution Medical Image Generation

Machine learning-assisted diagnosis shows promise, yet medical imaging datasets are often scarce, imbalanced, and constrained by privacy, making data augmentation essential. Classical generative models typically demand extensive computational and sample resources. Quantum computing offers a promising alternative, but existing quantum-based image generation methods remain limited in scale and often face barren plateaus. We present MediQ-GAN, a quantum-inspired GAN with prototype-guided skip connections and a dual-stream generator that fuses classical and quantum-inspired branches. Its variational quantum circuits inherently preserve full-rank mappings, avoid rank collapse, and are theory-guided to balance expressivity with trainability. Beyond generation quality, we provide the first latent-geometry and rank-based analysis of quantum-inspired GANs, offering theoretical insight into their performance. Across three medical imaging datasets, MediQ-GAN outperforms state-of-the-art GANs and diffusion models. While validated on IBM hardware for robustness, our contribution is hardware-agnostic, offering a scalable and data-efficient framework for medical image generation and augmentation.

A comparison on constrain encoding methods for quantum approximate optimization algorithm

The Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) represents a significant opportunity for practical quantum computing applications, particularly in the era before error correction is fully realized. This algorithm is especially relevant for addressing constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs), which are critical in various fields such as supply chain management, energy distribution, and financial modeling. In our study, we conduct a numerical comparison of three different strategies for incorporating linear constraints into QAOA: transforming them into an unconstrained format, introducing penalty dephasing, and utilizing the quantum Zeno effect. We assess the efficiency and effectiveness of these methods using the knapsack problem as a case study. Our findings provide insights into the potential applicability of different encoding methods for various use cases.
