An iterative energy-based multimodal transformer for joint retrieval of wheat soil moisture, leaf area index, and plant height from Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 time series

Field-scale retrieval of surface soil moisture (SM), leaf area index (LAI), and plant height (PH) is essential for precision agriculture, yet it remains an ill-posed inverse problem. Concurrent variations in soil moisture and canopy density generate substantial ambiguities in radar backscatter and spectral responses, which reduces the effectiveness of traditional feedforward regression models in heterogeneous smallholder cropping systems. This study presents the Iterative Energy-Based Transformer (iEBT) for the joint retrieval of coupled soil-canopy states from Sentinel-1 C-band SAR and Sentinel-2 multispectral time series. Instead of direct regression, iEBT embeds multi-modal predictors within a shared sequence, produces an initial state estimate, and iteratively updates the target [SM, LAI, PH] vector through normalized gradient descent to minimize a learned scalar compatibility energy function. Using 700 quality-controlled field measurements from Varanasi, India, iEBT achieved the highest learned-model performance on the random test split, with a four-seed mean R^2 of 0.854 \pm 0.012 (R_SM^2 = 0.841, R_LAI^2 = 0.905, R_PH^2 = 0.821). WCM and PROSAIL were retained as physically interpretable SAR and optical reference models for comparison. Modality ablations confirmed that Sentinel-1 drives SM retrieval, while Sentinel-2 dominates LAI, whereas PH relies on combined structural-phenological signatures. Crucially, the model's terminal energy functions as an uncalibrated post-retrieval quality diagnostic; screening the 10% highest-energy samples markedly reduced target level root-mean-square errors. While leave-one-campaign-out validation highlights persistent cross-season domain shift challenges due to localized management variations, compatibility-guided multimodal fusion offers a structured self-diagnostic path toward reliable biophysical parameter estimation

HTM-EAR: Importance-Preserving Tiered Memory with Hybrid Routing under Saturation

Memory constraints in long-running agents require structured management of accumulated facts while preserving essential information under bounded context limits. We introduce HTM-EAR, a hierarchical tiered memory substrate that integrates HNSW-based working memory (L1) with archival storage (L2), combining importance-aware eviction and hybrid routing. When L1 reaches capacity, items are evicted using a weighted score of importance and usage. Queries are first resolved in L1; if similarity or entity coverage is insufficient, retrieval falls back to L2, and candidates are re-ranked using a cross-encoder. We evaluate the system under sustained saturation (15,000 facts; L1 capacity 500; L2 capacity 5000) using synthetic streams across five random seeds and real BGL system logs. Ablation studies compare the full system against variants without cross-encoder re-ranking, without routing gates, with LRU eviction, and an oracle with unbounded memory. Under saturation, the full model preserves active-query precision (MRR = 1.000) while enabling controlled forgetting of stale history, approaching oracle active performance (0.997 +/- 0.003). In contrast, LRU minimizes latency (21.1 ms) but permanently evicts 2416 essential facts. On BGL logs, the full system achieves MRR 0.336, close to the oracle (0.370), while LRU drops to 0.069.

Routing Algorithms

Routing algorithms play a crucial role in the efficient transmission of data within computer networks by determining the optimal paths for packet forwarding. This paper presents a comprehensive exploration of routing algorithms, focusing on their fundamental principles, classification, challenges, recent advancements, and practical applications. Beginning with an overview of the significance of routing in modern communication networks, the paper delves into the historical evolution of routing algorithms, tracing their development from early approaches to contemporary techniques. Key categories of routing algorithms, including distance vector, link-state, and path vector algorithms, are examined in detail, along with hybrid approaches that integrate multiple routing paradigms. Common challenges faced by routing algorithms, such as routing loops and scalability issues, are identified, and current research efforts aimed at addressing these challenges are discussed.

DeepPFCN: Deep Parallel Feature Consensus Network For Person Re-Identification

Person re-identification aims to associate images of the same person over multiple non-overlapping camera views at different times. Depending on the human operator, manual re-identification in large camera networks is highly time consuming and erroneous. Automated person re-identification is required due to the extensive quantity of visual data produced by rapid inflation of large scale distributed multi-camera systems. The state-of-the-art works focus on learning and factorize person appearance features into latent discriminative factors at multiple semantic levels. We propose Deep Parallel Feature Consensus Network (DeepPFCN), a novel network architecture that learns multi-scale person appearance features using convolutional neural networks. This model factorizes the visual appearance of a person into latent discriminative factors at multiple semantic levels. Finally consensus is built. The feature representations learned by DeepPFCN are more robust for the person re-identification task, as we learn discriminative scale-specific features and maximize multi-scale feature fusion selections in multi-scale image inputs. We further exploit average and max pooling in separate scale for person-specific task to discriminate features globally and locally. We demonstrate the re-identification advantages of the proposed DeepPFCN model over the state-of-the-art re-identification methods on three benchmark datasets: Market1501, DukeMTMCreID, and CUHK03. We have achieved mAP results of 75.8%, 64.3%, and 52.6% respectively on these benchmark datasets.
