EasyVFX: Frequency-Driven Decoupling for Resource-Efficient VFX Generation

Generating high-fidelity visual effects (VFX) typically demands massive datasets and prohibitive computational power due to the intricate coupling of spatial textures and temporal dynamics. In this paper, we introduce EasyVFX, a resource-efficient framework that achieves realistic VFX synthesis under stringent constraints. Our core philosophy lies in frequency-domain decomposition: we observe that the complexity of VFX can be significantly mitigated by decoupling high-frequency components, which represent intricate spatial appearances, from low-frequency components that encapsulate global motion dynamics. This spectral disentanglement transforms a high-dimensional learning problem into manageable sub-tasks, thereby lowering the optimization barrier and reducing data dependency. Building upon this insight, we propose a two-stage training paradigm. First, we design a Frequency-aware Mixture-of-Experts (Freq-MoE) architecture. By utilizing a soft routing mechanism, our model assigns specialized experts to distinct spectral bands, enabling them to cultivate robust priors for appearance and motion dynamics. This specialization allows the model to acquire foundational VFX knowledge with fewer GPU resources. Second, we introduce a Test-Time Training strategy powered by a novel Frequency-constraint Loss. This allows the pre-trained model to swiftly adapt to specific, unseen effects through localized optimizations, requiring only about 100 steps on a single GPU. Experimental results demonstrate that EasyVFX produces structurally consistent and visually stunning effects, proving that frequency-aware learning is a key catalyst for democratizing professional-grade VFX.

Novel topological phenomena of timelike circular orbits for charged test particles

The topological approach has recently been successfully employed to investigate timelike circular orbits for massive neutral test particles. The observed vanishing topological number implies that these timelike circular orbits occur in pairs. However, the behavior of charged test particles in this regard remains unexplored. To address this issue, our study focuses on examining the influence of particle charge on the topology of timelike circular orbits within a spherically symmetrical black hole spacetime holding a nonvanishing radial electric field. We consider four distinct cases based on the charges of the particle and the black hole: unlike strong charge, unlike weak charge, like weak charge, and like strong charge. For each case, we calculate the corresponding topological number. Our results reveal that when the charge is large enough, the topological number takes a value of -1 instead of 0, which differs from the neutral particle scenario. Consequently, in cases of small charges, the timelike circular orbits appear in pairs, whereas in cases of larger charges, an additional unstable timelike circular orbit emerges. These findings shed light on the influence of the particle charge on the topological properties and number of timelike circular orbits.

Extracting spinning wormhole energy via magnetic reconnection

Magnetic reconnection has been extensively shown to be a promising approach to extract spinning black hole energy. In this paper, we focus on extracting spinning wormhole energy via such mechanism. The study shows that it is indeed possible to extract rotating energy from a spinning wormhole with small regularization parameter $\ell$ of the central singularity. The efficiency and power of the energy extraction are also evaluated. Quite different from the Kerr black hole, the spin of the wormhole can take arbitrarily large value. However, the increasing of wormhole spin not always improves the efficiency and power of energy extraction. By further comparing with the Kerr black hole, we find the wormhole is more efficient when the magnetic reconnection happens within radial distance $r/M<1$. These studies reveal the features of extracting spinning wormhole energy, and more underlying properties are expected to be disclosed for the horizonless objects.

Distinct topological configurations of equatorial timelike circular orbit for spherically symmetric (hairy) black holes

Topology is a promising approach toward to the light ring in a generic black hole background, and equatorial timelike circular orbit in a stationary black hole background. In this paper, we consider the distinct topological configurations of the timelike circular orbits in static, spherically symmetric, and asymptotic flat black holes. By making use of the equation of motion of the massive particles, we construct a vector with its zero points exactly relating with the timelike circular orbits. Since each zero point of the vector can be endowed with a winding number, the topology of the timelike circular orbits is well established. Stable and unstable timelike circular orbits respectively have winding number +1 and -1. In particular, for given angular momentum, the topological number of the timelike circular orbits also vanishes whether they are rotating or not. Moreover, we apply the study to the Schwarzschild, scalarized Einstein-Maxwell, and dyonic black holes, which have three distinct topological configurations, representations of the radius and angular momentum relationship, with one or two pairs timelike circular orbits at most. It is shown that although the existence of scalar hair and quasi-topological term leads to richer topological configurations of the timelike circular orbits, they have no influence on the total topological number. These results indicate that the topological approach indeed provides us a novel way to understand the timelike circular orbits. Significantly, different topological configurations can share the same topology number, and hence belong to the same topological class. More information is expected to be disclosed when other different topological configurations are present.

NEEDED: Introducing Hierarchical Transformer to Eye Diseases Diagnosis

With the development of natural language processing techniques(NLP), automatic diagnosis of eye diseases using ophthalmology electronic medical records (OEMR) has become possible. It aims to evaluate the condition of both eyes of a patient respectively, and we formulate it as a particular multi-label classification task in this paper. Although there are a few related studies in other diseases, automatic diagnosis of eye diseases exhibits unique characteristics. First, descriptions of both eyes are mixed up in OEMR documents, with both free text and templated asymptomatic descriptions, resulting in sparsity and clutter of information. Second, OEMR documents contain multiple parts of descriptions and have long document lengths. Third, it is critical to provide explainability to the disease diagnosis model. To overcome those challenges, we present an effective automatic eye disease diagnosis framework, NEEDED. In this framework, a preprocessing module is integrated to improve the density and quality of information. Then, we design a hierarchical transformer structure for learning the contextualized representations of each sentence in the OEMR document. For the diagnosis part, we propose an attention-based predictor that enables traceable diagnosis by obtaining disease-specific information. Experiments on the real dataset and comparison with several baseline models show the advantage and explainability of our framework.

Neutral Stellar Winds Toward the High-Mass Star-Forming Region G176.51+00.20

We observed the high-mass star-forming region G176.51+00.20 using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST) with the 19-beam tracking observational mode. This is a pilot work of searching for neutral stellar winds traced by atomic hydrogen (i.e., HI winds) using the high sensitivity HI line toward high-mass star-forming regions where bipolar molecular outflows have been detected with high sensitivity by Liu et al. HI wind was detected in this work only in Beam 1. We find here that, similar to low-mass star formation, no matter how large the inclination is, the HI wind is likely sufficiently strong to drive a molecular outflow. We also find that the abundance of HI in the HI wind is consistent with that of the HI narrow-line self-absorption (HINSA) in the same beam (i.e., Beam 1). This implies that there is probably an internal relationship between HI winds and HINSA. This result also reinforces the assertion that HI winds and detected molecular outflows are associated with each other.

HI Narrow-Line Self-Absorptions Toward the High-Mass Star-Forming Region G176.51+00.20

Using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST) 19-beam tracking observational mode, high sensitivity and high-velocity resolution HI spectral lines have been observed toward the high-mass star-forming region G176.51+00.20. This is a pilot study of searching for HI narrow-line self-absorption (HINSA) toward high-mass star-forming regions where bipolar molecular outflows have been detected. This work is confined to the central seven beams of FAST. Two HINSA components are detected in all seven beams, which correspond to a strong CO emission region (SCER; with a velocity of $\sim$ $-$18 km s$^{-1}$) and a weak CO emission region (WCER; with a velocity of $\sim$ $-$3 km s$^{-1}$). The SCER detected in Beam 3 is probably more suitably classified as a WCER. In the SCER, the HINSA is probably associated with the molecular material traced by the CO. The fractional abundance of HINSA ranges from $\sim 1.1 \times 10^{-3}$ to $\sim 2.6 \times 10^{-2}$. Moreover, the abundance of HINSA in Beam 1 is lower than that in the surrounding beams (i.e., Beams 2 and 4--7). This possible ring could be caused by ionization of HI or relatively rapid conversion from HI to H$_2$ in the higher-density inner region. In the WCER (including Beam 3 in the SCER), the HINSA is probably not associated with CO clouds, but with CO-dark or CO-faint gas.

QED effects on phase transition and Ruppeiner geometry of Euler-Heisenberg-AdS black holes

Taking the quantum electrodynamics (QED) effect into account, we study the black hole phase transition and Ruppeiner geometry for the Euler-Heisenberg anti-de Sitter black hole in the extended phase space. For negative and small positive QED parameter, we observe a small/large black hole phase transition and reentrant phase transition, respectively. While a large positive value of the QED parameter ruins the phase transition. The phase diagrams for each case are explicitly exhibited. Then we construct the Ruppeiner geometry in the thermodynamic parameter space. Different features of the corresponding scalar curvature are shown for both the small/large black hole phase transition and reentrant phase transition cases. Of particular interest is that an additional region of positive scalar curvature indicating dominated repulsive interaction among black hole microstructure is present for the black hole with a small positive QED parameter. Furthermore, the universal critical phenomena are also observed for the scalar curvature of the Ruppeiner geometry. These results indicate that the QED parameter has a crucial influence on the black hole phase transition and microstructure.
