ST$^2$U: Stateful Test-Time Unlearning via Restricted Knowledge Boundary Control

Controlling restricted knowledge in large language models is essential for model alignment and safe deployment. Test-time unlearning avoids costly retraining and parameter updates by intervening only during inference. However, existing activation-editing methods apply isolated pointwise corrections, overlooking how autoregressive generation continually reconstructs hidden states from the prompt, cache, and generated prefix. Consequently, later states may return to restricted knowledge regions after a locally successful correction, causing restricted knowledge re-entry. In this work, we propose Stateful Test-Time Unlearning via restricted knowledge boundary control (ST$^2$U), which formulates test-time unlearning as trajectory-wide boundary control. ST$^2$U first models restricted knowledge boundaries in low-dimensional invertible coordinates while leaving orthogonal non-target components unchanged. During inference, ST$^2$U monitors risk along the trajectory, applies minimal boundary corrections with contextual anchoring, and propagates historical correction states across tokens to mitigate knowledge re-entry. This trajectory-wide control enables more persistent forgetting while preserving non-target capabilities and limiting inference overhead. Across three benchmarks and three model families, ST$^2$U delivers the strongest overall balance, combining best or second-best retention with competitive forgetting and substantially less restricted-knowledge re-entry than test-time baselines (13.76%-19.84% versus 46.50%-59.10%).

LDTR: Transformer-based Lane Detection with Anchor-chain Representation

Despite recent advances in lane detection methods, scenarios with limited- or no-visual-clue of lanes due to factors such as lighting conditions and occlusion remain challenging and crucial for automated driving. Moreover, current lane representations require complex post-processing and struggle with specific instances. Inspired by the DETR architecture, we propose LDTR, a transformer-based model to address these issues. Lanes are modeled with a novel anchor-chain, regarding a lane as a whole from the beginning, which enables LDTR to handle special lanes inherently. To enhance lane instance perception, LDTR incorporates a novel multi-referenced deformable attention module to distribute attention around the object. Additionally, LDTR incorporates two line IoU algorithms to improve convergence efficiency and employs a Gaussian heatmap auxiliary branch to enhance model representation capability during training. To evaluate lane detection models, we rely on Frechet distance, parameterized F1-score, and additional synthetic metrics. Experimental results demonstrate that LDTR achieves state-of-the-art performance on well-known datasets.

CANet: Curved Guide Line Network with Adaptive Decoder for Lane Detection

Lane detection is challenging due to the complicated on road scenarios and line deformation from different camera perspectives. Lots of solutions were proposed, but can not deal with corner lanes well. To address this problem, this paper proposes a new top-down deep learning lane detection approach, CANET. A lane instance is first responded by the heat-map on the U-shaped curved guide line at global semantic level, thus the corresponding features of each lane are aggregated at the response point. Then CANET obtains the heat-map response of the entire lane through conditional convolution, and finally decodes the point set to describe lanes via adaptive decoder. The experimental results show that CANET reaches SOTA in different metrics. Our code will be released soon.

Deep Reinforcement Learning-based Methods for Resource Scheduling in Cloud Computing: A Review and Future Directions

As the quantity and complexity of information processed by software systems increase, large-scale software systems have an increasing requirement for high-performance distributed computing systems. With the acceleration of the Internet in Web 2.0, Cloud computing as a paradigm to provide dynamic, uncertain and elastic services has shown superiorities to meet the computing needs dynamically. Without an appropriate scheduling approach, extensive Cloud computing may cause high energy consumptions and high cost, in addition that high energy consumption will cause massive carbon dioxide emissions. Moreover, inappropriate scheduling will reduce the service life of physical devices as well as increase response time to users' request. Hence, efficient scheduling of resource or optimal allocation of request, that usually a NP-hard problem, is one of the prominent issues in emerging trends of Cloud computing. Focusing on improving quality of service (QoS), reducing cost and abating contamination, researchers have conducted extensive work on resource scheduling problems of Cloud computing over years. Nevertheless, growing complexity of Cloud computing, that the super-massive distributed system, is limiting the application of scheduling approaches. Machine learning, a utility method to tackle problems in complex scenes, is used to resolve the resource scheduling of Cloud computing as an innovative idea in recent years. Deep reinforcement learning (DRL), a combination of deep learning (DL) and reinforcement learning (RL), is one branch of the machine learning and has a considerable prospect in resource scheduling of Cloud computing. This paper surveys the methods of resource scheduling with focus on DRL-based scheduling approaches in Cloud computing, also reviews the application of DRL as well as discusses challenges and future directions of DRL in scheduling of Cloud computing.

Angular Triplet Loss-based Camera Network for ReID

Person re-identification (ReID) is a challenging crosscamera retrieval task to identify pedestrians. Many complex network structures are proposed recently and many of them concentrate on multi-branch features to achieve high performance. However, they are too heavy-weight to deploy in realworld applications. Additionally, pedestrian images are often captured by different surveillance cameras, so the varied lights, perspectives and resolutions result in inevitable multi-camera domain gaps for ReID. To address these issues, this paper proposes ATCN, a simple but effective angular triplet loss-based camera network, which is able to achieve compelling performance with only global features. In ATCN, a novel angular distance is introduced to learn a more discriminative feature representation in the embedding space. Meanwhile, a lightweight camera network is designed to transfer global features to more discriminative features. ATCN is designed to be simple and flexible so it can be easily deployed in practice. The experiment results on various benchmark datasets show that ATCN outperforms many SOTA approaches.
