ConceptRM: The Quest to Mitigate Alert Fatigue through Consensus-Based Purity-Driven Data Cleaning for Reflection Modelling

In many applications involving intelligent agents, the overwhelming volume of alerts (mostly false) generated by the agents may desensitize users and cause them to overlook critical issues, leading to the so-called ''alert fatigue''. A common strategy is to train a reflection model as a filter to intercept false alerts with labelled data collected from user verification feedback. However, a key challenge is the noisy nature of such data as it is often collected in production environments. As cleaning noise via manual annotation incurs high costs, this paper proposes a novel method ConceptRM for constructing a high-quality corpus to train a reflection model capable of effectively intercepting false alerts. With only a small amount of expert annotations as anchors, ConceptRM creates perturbed datasets with varying noise ratios and utilizes co-teaching to train multiple distinct models for collaborative learning. By analyzing the consensus decisions of these models, it effectively identifies reliable negative samples from a noisy dataset. Experimental results demonstrate that ConceptRM significantly enhances the interception of false alerts with minimal annotation cost, outperforming several state-of-the-art LLM baselines by up to 53.31% on in-domain datasets and 41.67% on out-of-domain datasets.

AACR-Bench: Evaluating Automatic Code Review with Holistic Repository-Level Context

High-quality evaluation benchmarks are pivotal for deploying Large Language Models (LLMs) in Automated Code Review (ACR). However, existing benchmarks suffer from two critical limitations: first, the lack of multi-language support in repository-level contexts, which restricts the generalizability of evaluation results; second, the reliance on noisy, incomplete ground truth derived from raw Pull Request (PR) comments, which constrains the scope of issue detection. To address these challenges, we introduce AACR-Bench a comprehensive benchmark that provides full cross-file context across multiple programming languages. Unlike traditional datasets, AACR-Bench employs an "AI-assisted, Expert-verified" annotation pipeline to uncover latent defects often overlooked in original PRs, resulting in a 285% increase in defect coverage. Extensive evaluations of mainstream LLMs on AACR-Bench reveal that previous assessments may have either misjudged or only partially captured model capabilities due to data limitations. Our work establishes a more rigorous standard for ACR evaluation and offers new insights on LLM based ACR, i.e., the granularity/level of context and the choice of retrieval methods significantly impact ACR performance, and this influence varies depending on the LLM, programming language, and the LLM usage paradigm e.g., whether an Agent architecture is employed. The code, data, and other artifacts of our evaluation set are available at https://github.com/alibaba/aacr-bench .

Synchronization driven acoustics: The nonlinear scattering of a self-oscillating meta-atom

In this study we demonstrate a self-oscillating acoustic meta-atom functioning as an amplifying transistor, where a steady external flow serves as a control signal to switch between reflective (off-state) and transmissive (on-state) regimes. In the on-state, an acoustic limit cycle synchronizes with incident sound waves. This process governs the energy transfer across the device, with a transmission bandwidth dictated by the synchronization region in parameter space (Arnold tongue). Our experimental measurements reveal nonlinear dependence on the incident wave amplitude, enabling perturbation filtering therein and stabilizing downstream acoustic power. All experimentally observed phenomena are quantitatively described by a nonlinear Li\'enard-type oscillator featuring saturable gain and linear loss, where the essential parameters can be estimated by independent measurements. This work may offer a paradigm shift in acoustic metamaterials research by leveraging self-oscillation and synchronization processes. Bridging those key concepts from nonlinear dynamics and complex systems with active metamaterial design in acoustics and related disciplines, may establish a broadly applicable framework of field-independent mechanisms for wave manipulation.

Hybrid broadband conduction and amplitude-driven topological confinement of sound via synthetic acoustic crystals

Precise wave manipulation has undoubtedly forged the technological landscape we thrive in today. Although our understanding of wave phenomena has come a long way since the earliest observations of desert dunes or ocean waves, the unimpeded development of mathematics has enabled ever more complex and exotic physical phenomena to be comprehensively described. Here, we take wave manipulation a step further by introducing an unprecedented synthetic acoustic crystal capable of realizing simultaneous linear broadband conduction and nonlinear topological insulation, depicting a robust amplitude-dependent mode localized deep within - i.e. an amplitude-driven topological confinement of sound. The latter is achieved by means of an open acoustic waveguide lined with a chain of nonlocally and nonlinearly coupled active electroacoustic resonators. Starting from a comprehensive topological model for classical waves, we demonstrate that different topological regimes can be accessed by increasing driving amplitude and that topological robustness against coupling disorder is a direct consequence of symmetric and simultaneous response between coupled resonators. Theoretical predictions are validated by a fully programmable experimental apparatus capable of realizing the real-time manipulation of metacrystal properties. In all, our results provide a solid foundation for future research in the design and manipulation of classical waves in artificial materials involving nonlinearity, nonlocality, and non-hermiticity.

Practical realization of chiral nonlinearity for strong topological protection

Nonlinear topology has been much less inquired compared to its linear counterpart. Existing advances have focused on nonlinearities of limited magnitudes and fairly homogeneous types. As such, the realizations have rarely been concerned with the requirements for nonlinearity. Here we explore nonlinear topological protection by determining nonlinear rules and demonstrate their relevance in real-world experiments. We take advantage of chiral symmetry and identify the condition for its continuation in general nonlinear environments. Applying it to one-dimensional topological lattices, we show possible evolution paths for zero-energy edge states that preserve topologically nontrivial phases regardless of the specifics of the chiral nonlinearities. Based on an acoustic prototype design with non-local nonlinearities, we theoretically, numerically, and experimentally implement the nonlinear topological edge states that persist in all nonlinear degrees and directions without any frequency shift. Our findings unveil a broad family of nonlinearities compatible with topological non-triviality, establishing a solid ground for future drilling in the emergent field of nonlinear topology.

Physics-inspired Neuroacoustic Computing Based on Tunable Nonlinear Multiple-scattering

Waves, such as light and sound, inherently bounce and mix due to multiple scattering induced by the complex material objects that surround us. This scattering process severely scrambles the information carried by waves, challenging conventional communication systems, sensing paradigms, and wave-based computing schemes. Here, we show that instead of being a hindrance, multiple scattering can be beneficial to enable and enhance analog nonlinear information mapping, allowing for the direct physical implementation of computational paradigms such as reservoir computing and extreme learning machines. We propose a physics-inspired version of such computational architectures for speech and vowel recognition that operate directly in the native domain of the input signal, namely on real-sounds, without any digital pre-processing or encoding conversion and backpropagation training computation. We first implement it in a proof-of-concept prototype, a nonlinear chaotic acoustic cavity containing multiple tunable and power-efficient nonlinear meta-scatterers. We prove the efficiency of the acoustic-based computing system for vowel recognition tasks with high testing classification accuracy (91.4%). Finally, we demonstrate the high performance of vowel recognition in the natural environment of a reverberation room. Our results open the way for efficient acoustic learning machines that operate directly on the input sound, and leverage physics to enable Natural Language Processing (NLP).

Quantum precision measurement of two-dimensional forces with ${\bf 10^{-28}}$-Newton stability

High-precision sensing of vectorial forces has broad impact on both fundamental research and technological applications such as the examination of vacuum fluctuations \cite{casimir09rmp} and the detection of surface roughness of nanostructures \cite{RevModPhys.89.035002}. Recent years have witnessed much progress on sensing alternating electromagnetic forces for the rapidly advancing quantum technology -- orders-of-magnitude improvement has been accomplished on the detection sensitivity with atomic sensors \cite{Schreppler1486,Shaniv2017,Gilmore673}, whereas precision measurement of static {electromagnetic} forces lags far behind with the corresponding long-term stability rarely demonstrated. Here, based on quantum atomic matter waves confined by an optical lattice, we perform precision measurement of static {electromagnetic} forces by imaging coherent wave mechanics in the reciprocal space. We achieve a state-of-the-art measurement sensitivity of $ 2.30(8)\times 10^{-26}$ N/$\sqrt{\rm \bf Hz}$. Long-term stabilities on the order of $10^{-28}$ N are observed in the two spatial components of a force, which allows probing atomic Van der Waals forces at a millimeter distance \cite{NatureNanoScanning}. As a further illustrative application, we use our atomic sensor to calibrate the control precision of an alternating electromagnetic force applied in the experiment. Future developments of our method hold promise for delivering unprecedented atom-based quantum force sensing technologies.

The dominant scattering channel induced by two-body collision of D-band atoms in triangular optical lattice

The mechanism of atomic collisions in excited bands plays an important role in the study of the orbital physics in optical lattices and simulation of condensed matter physics. Atoms distributing in one excited bands of an optical lattice would collide and decay to other bands through different scattering channels. In excited bands of one dimensional lattice, due to lack of geometry, there is no significant difference between cross section of scattering channels. Here, we investigate the collisional scattering channels for atoms in the excited bands of a triangular optical lattice and demonstrate a dominant scattering channel in the experiment. A shortcut method is utilized to load Bose-Einstein condensates of $^{87} {\rm Rb}$ atoms into the first D band with zero quasi-momentum. After some time for evolution, the number of atoms scattering to S band due to two-body collisions is around four times more than that to the second most band. We reveal that the scattering channel to $ss$ band is dominant by theoretical calculation, which agrees with experimental measurements. The appearance of dominant scattering channels in triangular optical lattice is owing to geometric dimension coupling. This work is helpful for the study of many-body systems and directional enhancement in optical lattices.

PID-like active control strategy for electroacoustic resonators to design tunable single-degree-of-freedom sound absorbers

Sound absorption at low frequencies still remains a challenge in both scientific research and engineering practice. Natural porous materials are ineffective in this frequency range, as well as acoustic resonators which present too narrow bandwidth of absorption, thus requiring alternative solutions based on active absorption techniques. In the present work, we propose an active control framework applied on a closed-box loudspeaker to enable the adjustment of the acoustic impedance at the loudspeaker diaphragm. More specifically, based on the proportionality between the pressure inside the enclosure and the axial displacement of the loudspeaker diaphragm at low frequencies, we demonstrate both analytically and experimentally that a PID-like feedback control approach allows tuning independently the compliance, the resistance and the moving mass of the closed-box loudspeaker to implement a prescribed impedance of a single-degree-of-freedom resonator. By considering different control combinations to tailor the resonator characteristics, a perfect absorption (with absorption coefficient equal to 1) is achievable at the target resonance frequency, while enlarging the effective absorption bandwidth. Moreover, the proposed feedback control strategy shows an excellent control accuracy, especially compared to the feedforward-based control formerly reported in the literature. The mismatches between the performance of experimental prototype and the model, likely to result from the control time delay and the inaccuracy in estimating the loudspeaker parameters, can be compensated directly by tuning the control parameters in the control platform. The active resonators implemented through the reported control scheme can be used to build more complex acoustic devices/structures to enable high-efficiency broadband sound absorption or other types of acoustic phenomena such as wavefront shaping.

Robust direct acoustic impedance control using two microphones for mixed feedforward-feedback controller

This paper presents an acoustic impedance control architecture for an electroacoustic absorber combining both a feedforward and a feedback microphone-based strategies on a current-driven loudspeaker. Feedforward systems enable good performance for direct impedance control. However, inaccuracies in the required actuator model can lead to a loss of passivity, which can cause unstable behaviors. The feedback contribution allows the absorber to better handle model errors and still achieve an accurate impedance, preserving passivity. Numerical and experimental studies were conducted to compare this new architecture against a state-of-the-art feedforward control method.

Evidence of Potts-Nematic Superfluidity in a Hexagonal $sp^2$ Optical Lattice

As in between liquid and crystal phases lies a nematic liquid crystal, which breaks rotation with preservation of translation symmetry, there is a nematic superfluid phase bridging a superfluid and a supersolid. The nematic order also emerges in interacting electrons and has been found to largely intertwine with multi-orbital correlation in high-temperature superconductivity, where Ising nematicity arises from a four-fold rotation symmetry $C_4$ broken down to $C_2$. Here we report an observation of a three-state ($\mathbb{Z}_3$) quantum nematic order, dubbed "Potts-nematicity", in a system of cold atoms loaded in an excited band of a hexagonal optical lattice described by an $sp^2$-orbital hybridized model. This Potts-nematic quantum state spontaneously breaks a three-fold rotation symmetry of the lattice, qualitatively distinct from the Ising nematicity. Our field theory analysis shows that the Potts-nematic order is stabilized by intricate renormalization effects enabled by strong inter-orbital mixing present in the hexagonal lattice. This discovery paves a way to investigate quantum vestigial orders in multi-orbital atomic superfluids.

Improving sound absorption through nonlinear active electroacoustic resonators

Absorbing airborne noise at frequencies below 300 Hz is a particularly vexing problem due to the absence of natural sound absorbing materials at these frequencies. The prevailing solution for low-frequency sound absorption is the use of passive narrow-band resonators, whose absorption level and bandwidth can be further enhanced using nonlinear effects. However, these effects are typically triggered at high intensity levels, without much control over the form of the nonlinear absorption mechanism. In this study, we propose, implement, and experimentally demonstrate a nonlinear active control framework on an electroacoustic resonator prototype, allowing for unprecedented control over the form of non-linearity, and arbitrarily low sound intensity thresholds. More specifically, the proposed architecture combines a linear feedforward control on the front pressure through a first microphone located at the front face of the loudspeaker, and a nonlinear feedback on the membrane displacement estimated through the measurement of the pressure inside the back cavity with a second microphone located in the enclosure. It is experimentally shown that even at a weak excitation level, it is possible to observe and control the nonlinear behaviour of the system. Taking the cubic nonlinearity as an example, we demonstrate numerically and experimentally that in the low frequency range ([50 Hz, 500 Hz]), the nonlinear control law allows improving the sound absorption performance, i.e. enlarging the bandwidth of optimal sound absorption while increasing the maximal absorption coefficient value, and producing only a negligible amount of nonlinear distortion. The reported experimental methodology can be extended to implement various types of hybrid linear and/or nonlinear controls, thus opening new avenues for managing wave nonlinearity and achieving non-trivial wave phenomena.

Asymmetric population of momentum distribution by quasi-periodically driving a triangular optical lattice

Ultracold atoms in periodical driven optical lattices enable us to investigate novel band structures and explore the topology of the bands. In this work, we investigate the impact of the ramping process of the driving signal and propose a simple but effective method to realize desired asymmetric population in momentum distribution by controlling the initial phase of the driving signal. A quasi-momentum oscillation along the shaking direction in the frame of reference co-moving with the lattice is formed, causing the formation of the mix of ground energy band and first excited band in laboratory frame, within the regime that the driving frequency is far less than the coupling frequency between ground band and higher energy bands. This method avoids the construction of intricate lattices or complex control sequence. With a triangular lattice, we experimentally investigate the influence of the initial phase, frequency, amplitude of the driving signal on the population difference, and observe good agreement with our theoretical model. This provides guidance on how to load a driving signal in driven optical lattice experiment and also potentially supplies a useful tool to form a qubit that can be used in quantum computation.

Extraction and identification of noise patterns for ultracold atoms in an optical lattice

To extract useful information about quantum effects in cold atom experiments, one central task is to identify the intrinsic quantum fluctuation from extrinsic system noises of various kinds. As a data processing method, principal component analysis can decompose fluctuations in experimental data into eigen modes, and give a chance to separate noises originated from different physical sources. In this paper, we demonstrate for Bose-Einstein condensates in one-dimensional optical lattices that the principal component analysis can be applied to time-of-flight images to successfully separate and identify noises from different origins of leading contribution, and can help to reduce or even eliminate noises via corresponding data processing procedures. The attribution of noise modes to their physical origins is also confirmed by numerical analysis within a mean-field theory.

Optimized fringe removal algorithm for absorption images

Optical absorption imaging is a basic detection technique for obtaining information from matter waves, in which the absorption signal can be obtained by comparing the recorded detection light field with the light field in the presence of absorption, thereby giving the spatial distribution of the atoms. The noise in detection arises mainly from differences between the two recorded light field distributions, which is difficult to avoid in experiments. In this work, we present an optimized fringe removal algorithm, developing a method to generate an ideal reference light field, avoiding the noise generated by the light field difference, and suppressing the noise signal to the theoretical limit. Using principal component analysis, we explore the optimal calculation area and how to remove noise information from the basis to allow optimal performance and speed. As an example, we consider scattering atomic peaks with a small number of atoms in a triangular lattice. Compared with the conventional processing method, our algorithm can reduce the measured atomic temperature variance by more than three times, giving a more reliable result.

Period-doubled Bloch states in a Bose-Einstein condensate

We study systematically the period-doubled Bloch states for a weakly interacting Bose-Einstein condensate in a one-dimensional optical lattice. This kind of state is of form $ψ_k=e^{ikx}ϕ_k(x)$, where $ϕ_k(x)$ is of period twice the optical lattice constant. Our numerical results show how these nonlinear period-doubled states grow out of linear period-doubled states at a quarter away from the Brillouin zone center as the repulsive interatomic interaction increases. This is corroborated by our analytical results. We find that all nonlinear period-doubled Bloch states have both Landau instability and dynamical instability.

Finite Temperature Phase Transition in a Cross-Dimensional Triangular Lattice

Atomic many-body phase transitions and quantum criticality have recently attracted much attention in non-standard optical lattices. Here we perform an experimental study of finite-temperature superfluid transition of bosonic atoms confined in a three dimensional triangular lattice, whose structure can be continuously deformed to dimensional crossover regions including quasi-one and two dimensions. This non-standard lattice system provides a versatile platform to investigate many-body correlated phases. For the three dimensional case, we find that the finite temperature superfluid transition agrees quantitatively with the Gutzwiller mean field theory prediction, whereas tuning towards reduced dimensional cases, both quantum and thermal fluctuation effects are more dramatic, and the experimental measurement for the critical point becomes strongly deviated from the mean field theory. We characterize the fluctuation effects in the whole dimension crossover process. Our experimental results imply strong many-body correlations in the system beyond mean field description, paving a way to study quantum criticality near Mott-superfluid transition in finite temperature dimension-crossover lattices.
