Validation of HRV Studio: A Transparent and Quality-Control-Aware Platform for Heart Rate Variability Analysis

Reproducibility of heart rate variability (HRV) analysis is limited by differences in preprocessing and computational conventions across software platforms. We developed HRV Studio, an open-source PyQt6-based desktop application integrating transparent HRV analysis with automated quality-control (QC) diagnostics. Validation included large-scale agreement with NeuroKit2, targeted Kubios benchmarking, spectral-method comparison, synthetic perturbation testing, recording-duration sensitivity analysis, and arrhythmia-focused QC stress testing. HRV Studio showed near-identical agreement for the widely used time-domain indices RMSSD and SDNN under matched conditions. In the primary five-minute NeuroKit2 comparison, frequency-domain median relative errors were 1.35% for LF, 0.18% for HF, and 1.41% for LF/HF, while VLF remained more convention-sensitive (37.79%). Nonlinear Poincaré indices also demonstrated high consistency. Sequence-harmonized Kubios benchmarking confirmed near-identical agreement for time-domain and nonlinear indices and strong agreement for most frequency-domain measures. Extended ten-minute analyses reproduced the same overall pattern with lower disagreement for some convention-sensitive spectral outputs. Synthetic and arrhythmia stress tests maintained 100% numerical stability while consistently triggering QC warnings. Overall, HRV Studio provides a transparent and reproducible platform for HRV research, with strong cross-platform consistency when NN sequences, preprocessing, and analytical conventions are harmonized. Stress-test results indicate computational robustness rather than clinical validation.

Up-sampling-only and Adaptive Mesh-based GNN for Simulating Physical Systems

Traditional simulation of complex mechanical systems relies on numerical solvers of Partial Differential Equations (PDEs), e.g., using the Finite Element Method (FEM). The FEM solvers frequently suffer from intensive computation cost and high running time. Recent graph neural network (GNN)-based simulation models can improve running time meanwhile with acceptable accuracy. Unfortunately, they are hard to tailor GNNs for complex mechanical systems, including such disadvantages as ineffective representation and inefficient message propagation (MP). To tackle these issues, in this paper, with the proposed Up-sampling-only and Adaptive MP techniques, we develop a novel hierarchical Mesh Graph Network, namely UA-MGN, for efficient and effective mechanical simulation. Evaluation on two synthetic and one real datasets demonstrates the superiority of the UA-MGN. For example, on the Beam dataset, compared to the state-of-the-art MS-MGN, UA-MGN leads to 40.99% lower errors but using only 43.48% fewer network parameters and 4.49% fewer floating point operations (FLOPs).

Position-based Contributive Embeddings for Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis

Aspect-based sentiment analysis (ABSA), exploring sentiment polarity of aspect-given sentence, is a fine-grained task in the field of nature language processing. Previously researches typically tend to predict polarity based on the meaning of aspect and opinions. However, those approaches mainly focus on considering relations implicitly at the word level, ignore the historical impact of other positional words when the aspect appears in a certain position. Therefore, we propose a Position-based Contributive Embeddings (PosCE) to highlight the historical reference to special position aspect. Contribution of each positional words to the polarity is similar to the process of fairly distributing gains to several actors working in coalition (game theory). Therefore, we quote from the method of Shapley Value and finally gain PosCE to enhance the aspect-based representation for ABSA task. Furthermore, the PosCE can also be used for improving performances on multimodal ABSA task. Extensive experiments on both text and text-audio level using SemEval dataset show that the mainstream models advance performance in accuracy and F1 (increase 2.82% and 4.21% on average respectively) by applying our PosCE.
