4DStreamCtrl: Interactive Video Generation with Online 4D Control

Generative video models now synthesize footage nearly indistinguishable from reality. Their promise as interactive tools hinges on fine-grained control of how objects and the camera move over time, yet each existing approach captures only part of this: camera-parameter methods steer the viewpoint but cannot move objects, 2D-trajectory methods act in the image plane and ignore depth and occlusion, and recent 3D methods add geometry but run only offline at a fixed length. In particular, none combines 3D-consistent control of both camera and objects with real-time, streaming generation. Here we show that camera motion, object trajectories, and depth can be unified into a single 3D point-track representation, from which one model performs joint camera and object control, depth editing, and motion transfer in a single forward pass. To learn this interface at scale, we mine in-the-wild video for 3D motion supervision, yielding OpenVidHD-Motion3D, and encode it with a lightweight Geometric Motion Head that plugs into a pretrained video diffusion model. Because this encoder is temporally separable, we distill the model into a causal streaming student that generates arbitrarily long video in four denoising steps at memory independent of length. This unified design surpasses prior camera-only, 2D, and offline-3D methods in motion-control precision while covering modalities they address only in isolation. 4DStreamCtrl runs at 20 FPS on a single high-end GPU for 480p video and stays temporally coherent over hundreds of frames, enabling, to our knowledge, interactive 4D-controllable streaming generation for the first time. More broadly, grounding generation in explicit 3D geometry with efficient causal inference points toward interactive world models with closed-loop spatiotemporal control, from controllable simulators to real-time visual imagination for embodied agents.

Quantum advantage prediction in turbulent free-space quantum illumination

Quantum illumination offers a significant theoretical advantage for target detection in high background noise environments. However, its practical deployment in free-space channels is hindered by atmospheric turbulence. Stochastic fluctuations in atmospheric turbulence inevitably degrade the quantum signature, rendering the real-time evaluation of quantum advantage under such dynamic conditions a critical yet unresolved challenge. To circumvent the reliance on costly direct turbulence measurements, we propose a physics-driven framework that integrates Kolmogorov-Arnold networks directly bridge macroscopic meteorological observations with microscopic quantum channel dynamics. Trained on 105,120 samples from 12 climatically diverse sites and validated on 26,280 unseen samples from three extreme boundary conditions (arid continental, tropical maritime, high-altitude plateau), our approach establishes a physically consistent mapping from standard meteorological variables to the temporal evolution of the quantum advantage. This end-to-end system dynamically quantifies the degradation of quantum advantage across diverse turbulence conditions. Our results provide a rigorous theoretical and data-driven pathway for environmental adaptation, facilitating the transition of quantum radar networks from proof-of-principle demonstrations to all-weather operational systems.

Phonons and magnetism of kagome FeGe probed by nuclear resonant scattering

Kagome FeGe hosts a $2\times2\times2$ charge-density wave (CDW) that strongly interplays with antiferromagnetic order. Here, we report $^{57}$Fe nuclear resonant scattering measurement to study FeGe across its long-range CDW and incommensurate magnetic transitions. Upon entering the CDW state, hardening of acoustic phonons and optical phonons around 22~meV, 27~meV, and 31~meV are observed in the Fe partial phonon density of states, which can be qualitatively captured by first-principle calculations. Upon entering the incommensurate magnetic phase, neither the phonon density of states nor the hyperfine interaction parameters change significantly, although a subtle feature associated with the incommensurate magnetic order or slow fluctuations is detected in the time-domain M\"{o}ssbauer spectra. These findings show that the CDW in kagome FeGe significantly modifies its lattice dynamics and magnetism, evidencing an intertwined nature of the spin, charge, and lattice degrees of freedom.

Deep Reinforcement Learning for Flexible Job Shop Scheduling with Random Job Arrivals

The Flexible Job Shop Scheduling Problem (FJSP) is the optimal allocation of a set of jobs to machines. Two primary challenges persist in FJSP: the unpredictable arrival of future jobs and the combinatorial complexity of the problem, rendering it intractable for conventional mixed-integer linear programming solvers. This paper proposes an event-based \gls{DRL} approach to solve FJSP with random job arrivals. Specifically, we employ the Proximal Policy Optimization algorithm and use lightweight Multi-Layer Perceptrons to train the \gls{DRL} agent for minimizing the total completion time of all jobs. We design the state representation to be directly accessible from the environment, and limit the learning agent to selecting from among a set of well-established dispatching rules. Simulations show that our \gls{DRL} approach outperforms any of the individual dispatching rules on datasets with varying heterogeneity and job arrival rates. We benchmark our \gls{DRL} against an arrival-triggered mixed-integer linear programming solution and show that our method achieves good performance especially when the datasets are heterogeneous.

GRASS: Gradient-based Adaptive Layer-wise Importance Sampling for Memory-efficient Large Language Model Fine-tuning

Full-parameter fine-tuning of large language models is constrained by substantial GPU memory requirements. Low-rank adaptation methods mitigate this challenge by updating only a subset of parameters. However, these approaches often limit model expressiveness and yield lower performance than full-parameter fine-tuning. Layer-wise fine-tuning methods have emerged as an alternative, enabling memory-efficient training through static layer importance sampling strategies. However, these methods overlook variations in layer importance across tasks and training stages, resulting in suboptimal performance on downstream tasks. To address these limitations, we propose GRASS, a gradient-based adaptive layer-wise importance sampling framework. GRASS utilizes mean gradient norms as a task-aware and training-stage-aware metric for estimating layer importance. Furthermore, GRASS adaptively adjusts layer sampling probabilities through an adaptive training strategy. We also introduce a layer-wise optimizer state offloading mechanism that overlaps computation and communication to further reduce memory usage while maintaining comparable training throughput. Extensive experiments across multiple models and benchmarks demonstrate that GRASS consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods, achieving an average accuracy improvement of up to 4.38 points and reducing memory usage by up to 19.97\%.

How far have we gone in Generative Image Restoration? A study on its capability, limitations and evaluation practices

Generative Image Restoration (GIR) has achieved impressive perceptual realism, but how far have its practical capabilities truly advanced compared with previous methods? To answer this, we present a large-scale study grounded in a new multi-dimensional evaluation pipeline that assesses models on detail, sharpness, semantic correctness, and overall quality. Our analysis covers diverse architectures, including diffusion-based, GAN-based, PSNR-oriented, and general-purpose generation models, revealing critical performance disparities. Furthermore, our analysis uncovers a key evolution in failure modes that signifies a paradigm shift for the perception-oriented low-level vision field. The central challenge is evolving from the previous problem of detail scarcity (under-generation) to the new frontier of detail quality and semantic control (preventing over-generation). We also leverage our benchmark to train a new IQA model that better aligns with human perceptual judgments. Ultimately, this work provides a systematic study of modern generative image restoration models, offering crucial insights that redefine our understanding of their true state and chart a course for future development.

SynergyKGC: Reconciling Topological Heterogeneity in Knowledge Graph Completion via Topology-Aware Synergy

Knowledge Graph Completion (KGC) fundamentally hinges on the coherent fusion of pre-trained entity semantics with heterogeneous topological structures to facilitate robust relational reasoning. However, existing paradigms encounter a critical "structural resolution mismatch," failing to reconcile divergent representational demands across varying graph densities, which precipitates structural noise interference in dense clusters and catastrophic representation collapse in sparse regions. We present SynergyKGC, an adaptive framework that advances traditional neighbor aggregation to an active Cross-Modal Synergy Expert via relation-aware cross-attention and semantic-intent-driven gating. By coupling a density-dependent Identity Anchoring strategy with a Double-tower Coherent Consistency architecture, SynergyKGC effectively reconciles topological heterogeneity while ensuring representational stability across training and inference phases. Systematic evaluations on two public benchmarks validate the superiority of our method in significantly boosting KGC hit rates, providing empirical evidence for a generalized principle of resilient information integration in non-homogeneous structured data.

Morphis: SLO-Aware Resource Scheduling for Microservices with Time-Varying Call Graphs

Modern microservice systems exhibit continuous structural evolution in their runtime call graphs due to workload fluctuations, fault responses, and deployment activities. Despite this complexity, our analysis of over 500,000 production traces from ByteDance reveals a latent regularity: execution paths concentrate around a small set of recurring invocation patterns. However, existing resource management approaches fail to exploit this structure. Industrial autoscalers like Kubernetes HPA ignore inter-service dependencies, while recent academic methods often assume static topologies, rendering them ineffective under dynamic execution contexts. In this work, we propose Morphis, a dependency-aware provisioning framework that unifies pattern-aware trace analysis with global optimization. It introduces structural fingerprinting that decomposes traces into a stable execution backbone and interpretable deviation subgraphs. Then, resource allocation is formulated as a constrained optimization problem over predicted pattern distributions, jointly minimizing aggregate CPU usage while satisfying end-to-end tail-latency SLOs. Our extensive evaluations on the TrainTicket benchmark demonstrate that Morphis reduces CPU consumption by 35-38% compared to state-of-the-art baselines while maintaining 98.8% SLO compliance.

Robust Outlier Detection and Low-Latency Concept Drift Adaptation for Data Stream Regression: A Dual-Channel Architecture

Outlier detection and concept drift detection represent two challenges in data analysis. Most studies address these issues separately. However, joint detection mechanisms in regression remain underexplored, where the continuous nature of output spaces makes distinguishing drifts from outliers inherently challenging. To address this, we propose a novel robust regression framework for joint outlier and concept drift detection. Specifically, we introduce a dual-channel decision process that orchestrates prediction residuals into two coupled logic flows: a rapid response channel for filtering point outliers and a deep analysis channel for diagnosing drifts. We further develop the Exponentially Weighted Moving Absolute Deviation with Distinguishable Types (EWMAD-DT) detector to autonomously differentiate between abrupt and incremental drifts via dynamic thresholding. Comprehensive experiments on both synthetic and real-world datasets demonstrate that our unified framework, enhanced by EWMAD-DT, exhibits superior detection performance even when point outliers and concept drifts coexist.

A Perception-feedback position-tracking control for quadrotors

In this paper a position-tracking controller for quadrotors based on perception feedback is developed, which directly uses measurements from onboard sensors such as low cost IMUs and GPS to generate the control commands without state estimation. Bias in gyros sensors are corrected to enhance the tracking performance. Practical stability of the origin of the tracking error system in the presence of external disturbances is proved using the Lyapunov analysis, which turns out to exponential stability in the absence of external disturbances. Numerical simulations are included to illustrate the proposed control scheme and to verify the robustness of the proposed controller under noisy measurements and parameter uncertainties.

Observation of hidden altermagnetism in Cs$_{1-\delta}$V$_2$Te$_2$O

Altermagnets are characterized by anisotropic band/spin splittings in momentum space, dictated by their spin-space group symmetries. However, the real-space modulations of altermagnetism are often neglected and have not been explored experimentally. Here we combine neutron diffraction, angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES), spin-resolved ARPES and density functional theory to demonstrate that Cs$_{1-\delta}$V$_2$Te$_2$O realizes a spatially modulated form of altermagnetism, i.e., hidden altermagnetism. Such a state in Cs$_{1-\delta}$V$_2$Te$_2$O results from its G-type antiferromagnetism and two-dimensional electronic states, allowing for the development of spatially alternating altermagnetic layers, whose local spin polarizations are directly verified by spin-resolved ARPES measurements. Our experimental discovery of hidden altermagnetism broadens the scope of unconventional magnetism and opens routes to exploring emergent phenomena from real-space modulations of altermagnetic order.

Response Analysis of Four-Level Heterodyne Rydberg Atom Receiver

The four-level heterodyne Rydberg atom receiver has garnered significant attention in microwave detection and communication due to its high sensitivity and phase measurement capabilities. Existing theoretical studies, primarily based on static solutions, are limited in characterizing the system's frequency response. To address this, this paper comprehensively investigates the dynamic solutions of the density matrix elements for the four-level heterodyne structure, establishing a quantitative relationship between system response, signal frequency, and system parameters. This enables theoretical bandwidth calculations and performance analysis. This paper also constructs a noise model for the density matrix elements, revealing the relationship between the ultimate sensitivity of the Rydberg atom receiver and the noise in the density matrix elements. Both theoretical simulation and experimental results demonstrate that the bandwidth of the four-level heterodyne receiver can exceed 10 MHz. This study provides critical theoretical support for the engineering applications and performance optimization of heterodyne Rydberg atom receivers.

FailureAtlas:Mapping the Failure Landscape of T2I Models via Active Exploration

Static benchmarks have provided a valuable foundation for comparing Text-to-Image (T2I) models. However, their passive design offers limited diagnostic power, struggling to uncover the full landscape of systematic failures or isolate their root causes. We argue for a complementary paradigm: active exploration. We introduce FailureAtlas, the first framework designed to autonomously explore and map the vast failure landscape of T2I models at scale. FailureAtlas frames error discovery as a structured search for minimal, failure-inducing concepts. While it is a computationally explosive problem, we make it tractable with novel acceleration techniques. When applied to Stable Diffusion models, our method uncovers hundreds of thousands of previously unknown error slices (over 247,000 in SD1.5 alone) and provides the first large-scale evidence linking these failures to data scarcity in the training set. By providing a principled and scalable engine for deep model auditing, FailureAtlas establishes a new, diagnostic-first methodology to guide the development of more robust generative AI. The code is available at https://github.com/cure-lab/FailureAtlas

Transfer Learning in Regression with Influential Points

Regression prediction plays a crucial role in practical applications and strongly relies on data annotation. However, due to prohibitive annotation costs or domain-specific constraints, labeled data in the target domain is often scarce, making transfer learning a critical solution by leveraging knowledge from resource-rich source domains. In the practical target scenario, although transfer learning has been widely applied, influential points can significantly distort parameter estimation for the target domain model. This issue is further compounded when influential points are also present in source domains, leading to aggravated performance degradation and posing critical robustness challenges for existing transfer learning frameworks. In this study, we innovatively introduce a transfer learning collaborative optimization (Trans-CO) framework for influential point detection and regression model fitting. Extensive simulation experiments demonstrate that the proposed Trans-CO algorithm outperforms competing methods in terms of model fitting performance and influential point identification accuracy. Furthermore, it achieves superior predictive accuracy on real-world datasets, providing a novel solution for transfer learning in regression with influential points

Geometric Control of Mechanical Systems with Symmetries Based on Sliding Modes

In this paper, we propose a framework for designing sliding mode controllers for a class of mechanical systems with symmetry, both unconstrained and constrained, that evolve on principal fiber bundles. Control laws are developed based on the reduced motion equations by exploring symmetries, leading to a sliding mode control strategy where the reaching stage is executed on the base space, and the sliding stage is performed on the structure group. Thus, design complexity is reduced, and difficult choices for coordinate representations when working with a particular Lie group are avoided. For this purpose, a sliding subgroup is constructed on the structure group based on a kinematic controller, and the sliding variable will converge to the identity of the state manifold upon reaching the sliding subgroup. A reaching law based on a general sliding vector field is then designed on the base space using the local form of the mechanical connection to drive the sliding variable to the sliding subgroup, and its time evolution is given according to the appropriate covariant derivative. Almost global asymptotic stability and local exponential stability are demonstrated using a Lyapunov analysis. We apply the results to a fully actuated system (a rigid spacecraft actuated by reaction wheels) and a subactuated nonholonomic system (unicycle mobile robot actuated by wheels), which is also simulated for illustration.

GOSU: Retrieval-Augmented Generation with Global-Level Optimized Semantic Unit-Centric Framework

Building upon the standard graph-based Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), the introduction of heterogeneous graphs and hypergraphs aims to enrich retrieval and generation by leveraging the relationships between multiple entities through the concept of semantic units (SUs). But this also raises a key issue: The extraction of high-level SUs limited to local text chunks is prone to ambiguity, complex coupling, and increased retrieval overhead due to the lack of global knowledge or the neglect of fine-grained relationships. To address these issues, we propose GOSU, a semantic unit-centric RAG framework that efficiently performs global disambiguation and utilizes SUs to capture interconnections between different nodes across the global context. In the graph construction phase, GOSU performs global merging on the pre-extracted SUs from local text chunks and guides entity and relationship extraction, reducing the difficulty of coreference resolution while uncovering global semantic objects across text chunks. In the retrieval and generation phase, we introduce hierarchical keyword extraction and semantic unit completion. The former uncovers the fine-grained binary relationships overlooked by the latter, while the latter compensates for the coarse-grained n-ary relationships missing from the former. Evaluation across multiple tasks demonstrates that GOSU outperforms the baseline RAG methods in terms of generation quality.

MoE-TTS: Enhancing Out-of-Domain Text Understanding for Description-based TTS via Mixture-of-Experts

Description-based text-to-speech (TTS) models exhibit strong performance on in-domain text descriptions, i.e., those encountered during training. However, in real-world applications, the diverse range of user-generated descriptions inevitably introduces numerous out-of-domain inputs that challenge the text understanding capabilities of these systems. To address this issue, we propose MoE-TTS, a description-based TTS model designed to enhance the understanding of out-of-domain text descriptions. MoE-TTS employs a modality-based mixture-of-experts (MoE) approach to augment a pre-trained textual large language model (LLM) with a set of specialized weights adapted to the speech modality while maintaining the original LLM frozen during training. This approach allows MoE-TTS to effectively leverage the pre-trained knowledge and text understanding abilities of textual LLMs. Our experimental results indicate that: first, even the most advanced closed-source commercial products can be challenged by carefully designed out-of-domain description test sets; second, MoE-TTS achieves superior performance in generating speech that more accurately reflects the descriptions. We encourage readers to listen to the demos at https://welkinyang.github.io/MoE-TTS/.
