The Swarm Intelligence Freeway-Urban Trajectories (SWIFTraj) Dataset -- Part II: A Graph-Based Approach for Trajectory Connection

In Part I of this companion paper series, we introduced SWIFTraj, a new open-source vehicle trajectory dataset collected using a unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) swarm. The dataset has two distinctive features. First, by connecting trajectories across consecutive UAV videos, it provides long-distance continuous trajectories, with the longest exceeding 4.5 km. Second, it covers an integrated traffic network consisting of both freeways and their connected urban roads. Obtaining such long-distance continuous trajectories from a UAV swarm is challenging, due to the need for accurate time alignment across multiple videos and the irregular spatial distribution of UAVs. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a novel graph-based approach for connecting vehicle trajectories captured by a UAV swarm. An undirected graph is constructed to represent flexible UAV layouts, and an automatic time alignment method based on trajectory matching cost minimization is developed to estimate optimal time offsets across videos. To associate trajectories of the same vehicle observed in different videos, a vehicle matching table is established using the Hungarian algorithm. The proposed approach is evaluated using both simulated and real-world data. Results from real-world experiments show that the time alignment error is within three video frames, corresponding to approximately 0.1 s, and that the vehicle matching achieves an F1-score of about 0.99. These results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in addressing key challenges in UAV-based trajectory connection and highlight its potential for large-scale vehicle trajectory collection.

Data-Driven Analysis of AI in Medical Device Software in China: Trends of Deep Learning and Traditional AI Based on Regulatory Data

Artificial intelligence (AI) in medical device software (MDSW) represents a transformative clinical technology, attracting increasing attention within both the medical community and the regulators. In this study, we leverage a data-driven approach to automatically extract and analyze AI-enabled medical devices (AIMD) from the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) regulatory database. The continued increase in publicly available regulatory data requires scalable methods for analysis. Automation of regulatory information screening is essential to create reproducible insights that can be quickly updated in an ever changing medical device landscape. More than 4 million entries were assessed, identifying 2,174 MDSW registrations, including 531 standalone applications and 1,643 integrated within medical devices, of which 43 were AI-enabled. It was shown that the leading medical specialties utilizing AIMD include respiratory (20.5%), ophthalmology/endocrinology (12.8%), and orthopedics (10.3%). This approach greatly improves the speed of data extracting providing a greater ability to compare and contrast. This study provides the first extensive, data-driven exploration of AIMD in China, showcasing the potential of automated regulatory data analysis in understanding and advancing the landscape of AI in medical technology.

Particle motions and gravitational waveforms in rotating black hole spacetimes of loop quantum gravity

We study the influence of the loop quantum gravity (LQG) holonomy-correction parameter $ξ$ on black hole horizon structure, timelike geodesic motion, and gravitational wave emission in two rotating LQG-inspired black hole spacetimes, constructed via Newman-Janis algorithm from two distinct spherically symmetric seed metrics (type BH-I and BH-II). The physically admissible range of $ξ$ is determined by requiring the existence of event horizons, marginally bound orbits, and innermost stable circular orbits simultaneously, and is found to shrink monotonically with increasing spin parameter $a$. For equatorial periodic orbits, increasing $ξ$ at fixed angular momentum enlarges the bound energy range, while for off-equatorial orbits, it suppresses the allowed range of the Carter constant, effectively confining trajectories closer to the equatorial plane. The effects of $ξ$ and $a$ on orbital dynamics are systematically antagonistic. Gravitational waveforms computed within a leading-order post-Newtonian extreme-mass-ratio inspiral (EMRI) model show that larger $ξ$ produces enhanced deviations from the Kerr waveform, more prominently so for type BH-II than type BH-I. The resulting characteristic strains occupy the $(10^{-3}, 0.1)$ Hz frequency band but fall below the sensitivity curves of current and near-future space-based detectors for the EMRI parameters considered ($M=10^7 M_\odot$, $m=10 M_\odot$, $D_L = 200$ Mpc). Adiabatic inspiral calculations confirm that $ξ$ and $a$ drive orbital evolution in opposite directions, with their relative magnitude determining whether quantum corrections accelerate or retard the inspiral. These results establish systematic observational signatures of holonomy corrections in rotating LQG black holes and motivate higher-fidelity waveform modeling for future space-based gravitational wave detectors.

Measuring Cross-Jurisdictional Transfer of Medical Device Risk Concepts with Explainable AI

Medical device regulators in the United States(FDA), China (NMPA), and Europe (EU MDR) all use the language of risk, but classify devices through structurally different mechanisms. Whether these apparently shared concepts carry transferable classificatory signal across jurisdictions remains unclear. We test this by reframing explainable AI as an empirical probe of cross-jurisdictional regulatory overlap. Using 141,942 device records, we derive seven EU MDR risk factors, including implantability, invasiveness, and duration of use, and evaluate their contribution across a three-by-three transfer matrix. Under a symmetric extraction pipeline designed to remove jurisdiction-specific advantages, factor contribution is negligible in all jurisdictions, indicating that clean cross-jurisdictional signal is at most marginal. Under jurisdiction specific pipelines, a modest gain appears only in the EU MDR-to-NMPA direction, but sensitivity analyses show that this effect is weak, context-dependent, and partly confounded by extraction and representation choices. Reverse direction probes show strong asymmetry: FDA-derived factors do not transfer meaningfully in any direction, and NMPA-derived factors do not carry signal back to EU MDR. Zero-shot transfer further fails on EU MDR Class I, consistent with a mismatch between residual and positional class definitions. Overall, cross-jurisdictional transfer is sparse, asymmetric, and weak. Shared regulatory vocabulary does not, under this operationalisation, translate into strong portable classification logic. The findings challenge a common assumption in cross-jurisdictional regulatory AI and show how explainable AI can be used to measure, rather than assume, regulatory overlap.

Structure-Aware Multimodal LLM Framework for Trustworthy Near-Field Beam Prediction

In near-field extremely large-scale multiple-input multiple-output (XL-MIMO) systems, spherical wavefront propagation expands the traditional beam codebook into the joint angular-distance domain, rendering conventional beam training prohibitively inefficient, especially in complex 3-dimensional (3D) low-altitude environments. Furthermore, since near-field beam variations are deeply coupled not only with user positions but also with the physical surroundings, precise beam alignment demands profound environmental understanding capabilities. To address this, we propose a large language model (LLM)-driven multimodal framework that fuses historical GPS data, RGB image, LiDAR data, and strategically designed task-specific textual prompts. By utilizing the powerful emergent reasoning and generalization capabilities of the LLM, our approach learns complex spatial dynamics to achieve superior environmental comprehension...

U6G XL-MIMO Radiomap Prediction: Multi-Config Dataset and Beam Map Approach

The upper 6 GHz (U6G) band with XL-MIMO is a key enabler for sixth-generation wireless systems, yet intelligent radiomap prediction for such systems remains challenging. Existing datasets support only small-scale arrays (up to 8x8) with predominantly isotropic antennas, far from the 1024-element directional arrays envisioned for 6G. Moreover, current methods encode array configurations as scalar parameters, forcing neural networks to extrapolate array-specific radiation patterns, which fails when predicting radiomaps for configurations absent from training data. To jointly address data scarcity and generalization limitations, this paper advances XL-MIMO radiomap prediction from three aspects. To overcome data limitations, we construct the first XL-MIMO radiomap dataset containing 78400 radiomaps across 800 urban scenes, five frequency bands (1.8-6.7 GHz), and nine array configurations up to 32x32 uniform planar arrays with directional elements. To enable systematic evaluation, we establish a comprehensive benchmark framework covering practical scenarios from coverage estimation without field measurements to generalization across unseen configurations and environments. To enable generalization to arbitrary beam configurations without retraining, we propose the beam map, a physics-informed spatial feature that analytically computes array-specific coverage patterns. By decoupling deterministic array radiation from data learned multipath propagation, beam maps shift generalization from neural network extrapolation to physics-based computation. Integrating beam maps into existing architectures reduces mean absolute error by up to 60.0% when generalizing to unseen configurations and up to 50.5% when transferring to unseen environments. The complete dataset and code are publicly available at https://lxj321.github.io/MulticonfigRadiomapDataset/.

Multi-degree-of-freedom (DOF) robotic manipulators exhibit strongly nonlinear, high-dimensional, and coupled dynamics, posing significant challenges for controller design. To address these issues, this work proposes a unified hybrid control architecture that integrates model predictive control (MPC) with feedback regulation, together with a stability analysis of the proposed scheme. The proposed approach mitigates the optimization difficulty associated with high-dimensional nonlinear systems and enhances overall control performance. Furthermore, a hardware implementation scheme based on machine learning (ML) is proposed to achieve high computational efficiency while maintaining control accuracy. Finally, simulation and hardware experiments under external disturbances validate the proposed architecture, demonstrating its superior performance, hardware feasibility, and generalization capability for multi-DOF manipulation tasks.

Hidden in-plane long-range order in an amorphized crystal

Solid materials are commonly classified as crystalline or amorphous based on the presence or absence of long-range order.Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), like other solids,also display markedly different properties and functions in these two phases. Here, we identify a previously unrecognized structural state that retains long-range in-plane translational order while losing order along the stacking direction. Hypothesized since 1941 but not experimentally verified, this intermediate phase emerges in a crystalline MOFs via controlled thermal desolvation, which selectively disrupts the intrinsically weak interlayer interactions while preserving macroscopic structural coherence. Although the resulting material appears amorphous under conventional characterization, systematic synchrotron PXRD, total X-ray scattering, and low-dose high resolution TEM reveal clear in-plane periodicity. This material spontaneously delaminates in water into uniform, high-quality two-dimensional crystalline nanosheets, forming stable colloidal suspensions and exhibiting superlubricity comparable to graphene - but at less than 0.1% of the production cost. Our discovery finds a missing link within the long-standing crystalline-amorphous dichotomy, while providing an inherently scalable route to high-quality 2D crystals, and offering a conceptual and practical advance in phase engineering.

How vehicles change lanes after encountering crashes: Empirical analysis and modeling

When a traffic crash occurs, following vehicles need to change lanes to bypass the obstruction. We define these maneuvers as post crash lane changes. In such scenarios, vehicles in the target lane may refuse to yield even after the lane change has already begun, increasing the complexity and crash risk of post crash LCs. However, the behavioral characteristics and motion patterns of post crash LCs remain unknown. To address this gap, we construct a post crash LC dataset by extracting vehicle trajectories from drone videos captured after crashes. Our empirical analysis reveals that, compared to mandatory LCs (MLCs) and discretionary LCs (DLCs), post crash LCs exhibit longer durations, lower insertion speeds, and higher crash risks. Notably, 79.4% of post crash LCs involve at least one instance of non yielding behavior from the new follower, compared to 21.7% for DLCs and 28.6% for MLCs. Building on these findings, we develop a novel trajectory prediction framework for post crash LCs. At its core is a graph based attention module that explicitly models yielding behavior as an auxiliary interaction aware task. This module is designed to guide both a conditional variational autoencoder and a Transformer based decoder to predict the lane changer's trajectory. By incorporating the interaction aware module, our model outperforms existing baselines in trajectory prediction performance by more than 10% in both average displacement error and final displacement error across different prediction horizons. Moreover, our model provides more reliable crash risk analysis by reducing false crash rates and improving conflict prediction accuracy. Finally, we validate the model's transferability using additional post crash LC datasets collected from different sites.

Power Consumption and Energy Efficiency of Mid-Band XL-MIMO: Modeling, Scaling Laws, and Performance Insights

Mid-band extra-large-scale multiple-input multiple-output (XL-MIMO), emerging as a critical enabler for future communication systems, is expected to deliver significantly higher throughput by leveraging the extended bandwidth and enlarged antenna aperture. However, power consumption remains a significant concern due to the enlarged system dimension, underscoring the need for thorough investigations into efficient system design and deployment. To this end, an in-depth study is conducted on mid-band XL-MIMO systems. Specifically, a comprehensive power consumption model is proposed, encompassing the power consumption of major hardware components and signal processing procedures, while capturing the influence of key system parameters. Considering typical near-field propagation characteristics, closed-form approximations of throughput are derived, providing an analytical framework for assessing energy efficiency (EE). Based on the proposed framework, the scaling law of EE with respect to key system configurations is derived, offering valuable insights for system design. Subsequently, extensions and comparisons are conducted among representative multi-antenna technologies, demonstrating the superiority of mid-band XL-MIMO in EE. Extensive numerical results not only verify the tightness of the throughput analysis but also validate the EE evaluations, unveiling the potential of energy-efficient mid-band XL-MIMO systems.

Super-hard and superconducting boron clathrates in the prediction of U-B compounds

The binary metal borides provide a promising platform for searching unique materials with superconductivity and super-hardness under high pressure, owing to the distinctive bonding characters of boron. In this work, combined the first-principles calculations and crystal structure predictions, we predicted 4 exotic stoichiometries and 8 unique U-B compounds under high pressure. The predicted compounds have layered or caged structure units and 4 of them host high hardness under ambient pressure. By removal of the U atoms, we predicted three meta-stable boron clathrates at ambient pressure. Remarkably, the Vickers hardness of the predicted C2/m-B6 is estimated to be 49-53 GPa, and the C2/m-B12 is superconducting with the Tc value of 16.12 K. Our calculations enrich the phase diagram of binary metal borides and boron allotropes, providing insights for the future theoretical and experimental studies on unique materials.

A Trajectory-free Crash Detection Framework with Generative Approach and Segment Map Diffusion

Real-time crash detection is essential for developing proactive safety management strategy and enhancing overall traffic efficiency. To address the limitations associated with trajectory acquisition and vehicle tracking, road segment maps recording the individual-level traffic dynamic data were directly served in crash detection. A novel two-stage trajectory-free crash detection framework, was present to generate the rational future road segment map and identify crashes. The first-stage diffusion-based segment map generation model, Mapfusion, conducts a noisy-to-normal process that progressively adds noise to the road segment map until the map is corrupted to pure Gaussian noise. The denoising process is guided by sequential embedding components capturing the temporal dynamics of segment map sequences. Furthermore, the generation model is designed to incorporate background context through ControlNet to enhance generation control. Crash detection is achieved by comparing the monitored segment map with the generations from diffusion model in second stage. Trained on non-crash vehicle motion data, Mapfusion successfully generates realistic road segment evolution maps based on learned motion patterns and remains robust across different sampling intervals. Experiments on real-world crashes indicate the effectiveness of the proposed two-stage method in accurately detecting crashes.

A Systematic Review on Foundation Models for Electrocardiogram Analysis: Initial Strides and Expansive Horizons

Electrocardiogram (ECG) is widely used in healthcare applications, such as arrhythmia detection and sleep monitoring, making accurate ECG analysis critically essential. Traditional deep learning models for ECG are task-specific, with limited generalization and narrow functionality. Foundation models (FMs), or large pre-training models, have recently advanced representation learning, enabling strong performance across diverse tasks and motivating their adoption for ECG analysis. Here, we present the first comprehensive review dedicated to ECG foundation models (ECG-FMs). We map the current landscape of architectures, pre-training paradigms, and adaptation strategies, and critically examine their strengths, limitations, and clinical potential. By consolidating this emerging field, we aim to accelerate the development of robust, generalizable ECG-FMs and chart future directions for their integration into healthcare practice.

Pioneering Scalable Prototyping for Mid-Band XL-MIMO Systems: Design and Implementation

The mid-band frequency range, combined with extra large-scale multiple-input multiple-output (XL-MIMO), is emerging as a key enabler for future communication systems. Thanks to the advent of new spectrum resources and degrees of freedom brought by the near-field propagation, the mid-band XL-MIMO system is expected to significantly enhance throughput and inherently support advanced functionalities such as integrated sensing and communication. Although theoretical studies have highlighted the benefits of mid-band XL-MIMO systems, the promised performance gains have yet to be validated in practical systems, posing a major challenge to the standardization. In this paper, preliminaries are first discussed, followed by an analysis of key challenges in constructing a real-time prototype system. Subsequently, the design and implementation of a real-time mid-band XL-MIMO prototype system are presented. Benefiting from the novel architecture, the proposed prototype system supports metrics aligned with standardization, including a bandwidth of 200 MHz, up to 1024 antenna elements, and up to 256 transceiver chains. Operating in time-division duplexing (TDD) mode, the prototype enables multiuser communication with support for up to 12 users, while retaining standard communication procedures. Built on software-defined radio (SDR) platforms, the system is programmable and allows for flexible deployment of advanced algorithms. Moreover, the modular architecture ensures high scalability, making the system adaptable to various configurations, including distributed deployments and decentralized signal processing. Experimental results with the proposed prototype system demonstrate real-time digital sample processing at 1167.85 Gbps, a peak data throughput of 15.81 Gbps for 12 users, and a maximal spectral efficiency approaching 80 bit/s/Hz.

On the Slipperiness of Surfactants: Charge-Mediated Friction Control at the Molecular Scale

From soap-covered dishes to freshly cleaned floors, surfactants can make surfaces slippery; yet, the underlying mechanism remains poorly understood. Here, we identify the molecular origin behind this ubiquitous phenomenon using macroscopic tribology and surface molecular spectroscopy. We demonstrate that reducing friction through surfactants hinges on charge complementarity: surfactants of opposite charge to the solid surface reduce friction even at extreme contact pressures, whereas like-charged or neutral surfactants are ineffective. Oppositely charged surfactants self-assemble into dense and robust molecular brushes, creating a persistent lubrication beyond the limits of conventional mechanisms. This charge-mediated approach offers a universal and scalable framework for friction control across length scales without significant surface modification.

Standard Applicability Judgment and Cross-jurisdictional Reasoning: A RAG-based Framework for Medical Device Compliance

Identifying the appropriate regulatory standard applicability remains a critical yet understudied challenge in medical device compliance, frequently necessitating expert interpretation of fragmented and heterogeneous documentation across different jurisdictions. To address this challenge, we introduce a modular AI system that leverages a retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipeline to automate standard applicability determination. Given a free-text device description, our system retrieves candidate standards from a curated corpus and uses large language models to infer jurisdiction-specific applicability, classified as Mandatory, Recommended, or Not Applicable, with traceable justifications. We construct an international benchmark dataset of medical device descriptions with expert-annotated standard mappings, and evaluate our system against retrieval-only, zero-shot, and rule-based baselines. The proposed approach attains a classification accuracy of 73% and a Top-5 retrieval recall of 87%, demonstrating its effectiveness in identifying relevant regulatory standards. We introduce the first end-to-end system for standard applicability reasoning, enabling scalable and interpretable AI-supported regulatory science. Notably, our region-aware RAG agent performs cross-jurisdictional reasoning between Chinese and U.S. standards, supporting conflict resolution and applicability justification across regulatory frameworks.

Electric Field Control of Spin Orbit Coupling and Circular Photogalvanic Effect in a True Ferrielectric Crystal

Materials possessing long range ordering of magnetic spins or electric dipoles have been the focus of condensed matter research. Among them, ferri-systems with two sublattices of unequal/noncollinear spins or electric dipoles are expected to combine the properties of ferro- and antiferro-systems, but lack experimental observations in single phase materials. This is particularly true for the ferrielectric system, since the electric dipoles usually can be redefined to incorporate the two sublattices into one, making it indistinguishable from ferroelectric. This raises doubts about whether or not ferrielectricity can be considered as an independent ferroic order. Here we report the observation of true ferrielectric behaviors in a hybrid single crystal (MV)[SbBr5] (MV2+ = N,N'-dimethyl-4,4'-bipyridinium or methylviologen), where the two electric dipole sublattices switch asynchronously, thus cannot be reduced to ferroelectric by redefining the unit cell. Furthermore, the complex dipole configuration imparts circularly polarized light sensitivity to the system. An electric field can modulate the non-collinear dipole sublattices and even induce a transition from ferrielectric to ferroelectric state, thereby tuning the helicity-dependent photocurrent. This study opens a new paradigm for the study of true irreducible ferrielectricity (a new class of polar system) and provides an effective approach to the electric field control of spin-orbit coupling and circular photogalvanic effect.

AI for Regulatory Affairs: Balancing Accuracy, Interpretability, and Computational Cost in Medical Device Classification

Regulatory affairs, which sits at the intersection of medicine and law, can benefit significantly from AI-enabled automation. Classification task is the initial step in which manufacturers position their products to regulatory authorities, and it plays a critical role in determining market access, regulatory scrutiny, and ultimately, patient safety. In this study, we investigate a broad range of AI models -- including traditional machine learning (ML) algorithms, deep learning architectures, and large language models -- using a regulatory dataset of medical device descriptions. We evaluate each model along three key dimensions: accuracy, interpretability, and computational cost.
