Large language model agents accelerate inverse design of metal-organic frameworks for gas separation

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) offer a highly modular platform for adsorptive gas separation, yet their vast reticular design space makes inverse design difficult under simultaneous constraints of chemical validity, separation performance, and structural diversity. Here, we present LEMO Agent, a large-language-model agent framework for closed-loop inverse design of gas-separation MOFs in MOFid space. LEMO Agent couples language-based candidate generation with MOFid standardization, explicit validity checking, Transformer-based property prediction, structured design memory, and multi-island exploration. Through iterative generate--validate--evaluate--remember cycles, the agent uses feedback from both successful and failed candidates to guide chemically constrained search across linker, metal, and topology choices. We evaluate LEMO Agent on CH$_4$/N$_2$ and CO$_2$/N$_2$ separation tasks. Compared with representative generative, optimization, and agentic baselines, LEMO Agent enriches high-performing candidates, improves predicted separation performance, and maintains broad chemical and topological diversity. Selected candidates are further reconstructed, evaluated by GCMC simulations, and passed through an experimental down-selection workflow based on chemical feasibility and ligand purchasability, leading to initial wet-lab synthesis and SEM characterization. These results demonstrate that large language model agents can serve as interpretable and scalable design engines for accelerating MOF discovery beyond conventional fixed-library screening.

HiHR: Hierarchical Hyperbolic Representation for Aerial-Ground Person Re-Identification

Aerial-Ground Person Re-IDentification (AG-ReID) aims to retrieve the same person across heterogeneous aerial and ground camera platforms. Although great progress has been made, existing methods remain suboptimal due to the direct feature alignment across views, overlooking view-specific cues. To address this issue, we propose a novel Hierarchical Hyperbolic Representation (HiHR) framework for AG-ReID. More specifically, we first extract multi-granularity features based on pre-trained visual-text encoders. Then, we propose a Text-guided Multi-granularity Fusion (TMF) to fuse multi-granularity features and enhance the representation ability of identity features. Furthermore, we introduce the Hierarchical Hyperbolic Learning (HHL) to construct a hierarchical feature structure in a hyperbolic space. This hierarchy includes a coarse level that ensures identity separability and cross-view consistency, and a fine level that preserves view-specific discriminative cues. As a result, our proposed framework can effectively aggregate view-invariant and view-specific discriminative features for AG-ReID. Extensive experiments on four AG-ReID benchmarks demonstrate the effectiveness of our framework. The source code is available at https://github.com/YangQiWei3/HiHR.

SAS-VPReID: A Scale-Adaptive Framework with Shape Priors for Video-based Person Re-Identification at Extreme Far Distances

Video-based Person Re-IDentification (VPReID) aims to retrieve the same person from videos captured by non-overlapping cameras. At extreme far distances, VPReID is highly challenging due to severe resolution degradation, drastic viewpoint variation and inevitable appearance noise. To address these issues, we propose a Scale-Adaptive framework with Shape Priors for VPReID, named SAS-VPReID. The framework is built upon three complementary modules. First, we deploy a Memory-Enhanced Visual Backbone (MEVB) to extract discriminative feature representations, which leverages the CLIP vision encoder and multi-proxy memory. Second, we propose a Multi-Granularity Temporal Modeling (MGTM) to construct sequences at multiple temporal granularities and adaptively emphasize motion cues across scales. Third, we incorporate Prior-Regularized Shape Dynamics (PRSD) to capture body structure dynamics. With these modules, our framework can obtain more discriminative feature representations. Experiments on the VReID-XFD benchmark demonstrate the effectiveness of each module and our final framework ranks the first on the VReID-XFD challenge leaderboard. The source code is available at https://github.com/YangQiWei3/SAS-VPReID.

VReID-XFD: Video-based Person Re-identification at Extreme Far Distance Challenge Results

Person re-identification (ReID) across aerial and ground views at extreme far distances introduces a distinct operating regime where severe resolution degradation, extreme viewpoint changes, unstable motion cues, and clothing variation jointly undermine the appearance-based assumptions of existing ReID systems. To study this regime, we introduce VReID-XFD, a video-based benchmark and community challenge for extreme far-distance (XFD) aerial-to-ground person re-identification. VReID-XFD is derived from the DetReIDX dataset and comprises 371 identities, 11,288 tracklets, and 11.75 million frames, captured across altitudes from 5.8 m to 120 m, viewing angles from oblique (30 degrees) to nadir (90 degrees), and horizontal distances up to 120 m. The benchmark supports aerial-to-aerial, aerial-to-ground, and ground-to-aerial evaluation under strict identity-disjoint splits, with rich physical metadata. The VReID-XFD-25 Challenge attracted 10 teams with hundreds of submissions. Systematic analysis reveals monotonic performance degradation with altitude and distance, a universal disadvantage of nadir views, and a trade-off between peak performance and robustness. Even the best-performing SAS-PReID method achieves only 43.93 percent mAP in the aerial-to-ground setting. The dataset, annotations, and official evaluation protocols are publicly available at https://www.it.ubi.pt/DetReIDX/ .

Supramolecular Stacking of Doxorubicin on Carbon Nanotubes for in vivo Cancer Therapy

Many therapeutic advantages such as prolonged circulation in the blood, increased tumor drug uptake, enhanced therapeutic efficacy, and markedly reduced toxic side effects are provided by a carbon nanotube based chemotherapeutic formulation. In this system, doxorubicin (DOX) is loaded onto the sidewalls of functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes by supramolecular pi-pi stacking.
