Frequency-aware forecasting for short-term typhoon gust prediction

Accurate gust forecasting under typhoon conditions remains challenging due to the highly non-stationary and multi-scale characteristics of extreme wind fluctuations. Existing deep learning models often struggle to simultaneously capture long-term trends and rapid local variations, resulting in degraded performance during extreme events. We propose WDANet, a frequency-aware forecasting framework that integrates stationary wavelet decomposition, a Feature-wise Linear Modulation (FiLM) strategy, and a dual-branch encoder-decoder architecture, enabling separate modeling of trend and fluctuation components. Taking the offshore regions of the Western Pacific in China as an example, we conduct fine-grid wind gust prediction research. The results demonstrate that WDANet shows advantages for short lead times under the experimental setting across a 24-h forecasting horizon and achieves higher prediction accuracy than ECMWF-HRES within the first 6 h. During extreme wind events, WDANet more accurately captures gust peaks and attains the best RMSE and MAE performance. These results highlight its potential for offshore wind power operation, disaster warning, and risk mitigation.

Uncovering Latent Depression Severity for Binary Depression Detection via Advantage-weighting Ranking

Automatic depression detection using audio-visual data faces significant challenges, particularly in disentangling overlapping feature distributions and establishing robust decision boundaries. To address this, we propose a fine-grained multimodal framework featuring a temporal encoder and a mutual transformer to facilitate deep cross-modal fusion. Our core contribution is the Binary Advantage-weighting Ranking Loss, which optimizes the latent space distribution through two complementary mechanisms: Advantage-weighted Separation, which mines hard pairs by computing a pairwise prediction difference matrix and dynamically weighting them based on their difficulty; and Advantage-weighted Compactness, which minimizes intra-class variance to force features to cluster around their respective class centers. Extensive experiments on D-vlog and LMVD demonstrate that our model reconstructs the latent ordinal structure by prioritizing hard pairs, thereby achieving state-of-the-art performance.

Self-supervised Learning Matters: A Simple Ensemble Solution for Micro-Gesture Recognition

In this paper, we present XInsight Lab's solution to the micro-gesture classification track of the 4th MiGA Challenge at IJCAI 2026, in which our solution ranked first and achieved a new state-of-the-art result. We propose a multimodal ensemble framework that integrates a self-supervised RGB-based model with supervised multi-stream models from previous solutions. The self-supervised RGB model is pretrained on 120K unlabeled clips via masked video modeling and then fine-tuned on iMiGUE. This simple yet effective RGB baseline achieves 69.224% top-1 accuracy on the iMiGUE test set, demonstrating the benefit of learning transferable representations from unlabeled in-domain videos. By incorporating this model as a complementary branch, the final ensemble reaches 74.419% top-1 accuracy, surpassing the previous state of the art by 1.206 percentage points. Experimental results on iMiGUE, including ablation studies on the ensemble strategy, validate the effectiveness of self-supervised RGB representation learning for micro-gesture recognition.

Nonlinear-Gain Distributed Zeroth-Order Optimization for Networked Black-Box Control

This letter studies distributed stochastic optimization over a peer-to-peer network when agents can query only zeroth-order function values. We propose ZOOM-PB, a coordinate-sampling method that blends each local ZO estimate with a fractional-power response while maintaining only a primal state. The raw estimate is retained as a linear anchor, and the nonlinear mixing weight is coupled to the optimization stepsize. This design is motivated by a basic obstruction: transforming heterogeneous or noisy local estimates before averaging can reverse the network direction. We bound that nonlinear residual directly from the raw oracle assumptions instead of imposing an aggregate-alignment condition. With a smooth stochastic-function oracle and a connected graph, ZOOM-PB attains the nonconvex stationarity order $\mathcal{O}(\sqrt{p/(nT)})$ and a Polyak--{\L}ojasiewicz statistical term of order $\mathcal{O}(p/(nT))$, after an explicit initialization transient. Numerical examples compare ZOOM-PB with seven distributed ZO baselines under matched query and message budgets.
