Machine Learning for Depression Screening and Intervention: an Original Circadian Rhythm Score-based Methodology

Depression screening from large-scale behavioral data is challenged by fragmented circadian indicators, limited interpretability, and the lack of intervention-oriented analysis. Existing approaches typically analyze sleep, activity, and social behaviors in isolation, failing to capture their joint circadian structure. To address this limitation, we first propose the Circadian Rhythm Score (CRS), a composite index that compresses multi-domain daily behaviors into a unified representation of circadian rhythm. CRS is constructed to maximize discriminative power for depression screening while preserving behavioral semantics through non-negativity constraints. Empirical results demonstrate near-lossless compression, where a single CRS retains almost the full predictive capability compared with multiple raw behavioral indicators. Building upon CRS, we develop an interpretable depression screening framework based on gradient-boosted trees and SHAP analysis, revealing nonlinear and saturation-like associations between circadian rhythm and depression risk. Beyond risk prediction, we further integrate interaction modeling and counterfactual regression to estimate heterogeneous and dose-dependent behavioral effects, enabling intervention-oriented reasoning under different circadian contexts. Experiments on the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS, n=15,233), demonstrate robust screening performance (ROC-AUC=0.825) and identify actionable behavioral thresholds, including a minimum effective exercise dose of approximately 300 MET-min/week and an optimal restorative nap duration of approximately 65 minutes for sleep-deprived individuals. By bridging supervised representation learning and interpretable modeling, this work provides a scalable framework for depression screening and intervention-aware healthcare data mining.

Unlocking air traffic flow prediction through microscopic aircraft-state modeling

Short-term air traffic flow prediction in terminal airspace is essential for proactive air traffic management. Existing approaches predominantly model traffic flow as aggregated time series. However, traffic dynamics are governed by aircraft states and their interactions in continuous airspace. Such aggregation obscures fine-grained information, including aircraft kinematics, boundary interactions, and control-intent cues. Here we present AeroSense, a state-to-flow modeling paradigm that predicts future traffic flow directly from instantaneous airspace situations represented as dynamic sets of aircraft states derived from ADS-B trajectories. By establishing an end-to-end mapping from microscopic aircraft states to future regional traffic flow, AeroSense preserves aircraft-level dynamics while naturally accommodating varying traffic density, and avoids reliance on historical look-back windows. Experiments on a large-scale real-world dataset show that AeroSense exhibits strong predictive accuracy and robustness compared with time series-based forecasting approaches, without requiring exhaustive hyperparameter tuning. These findings suggest that aircraft-state situation modeling provides a promising alternative to conventional time-series forecasting in air traffic flow management.

The convexity of inclusions and gradient's concentration for Lamé systems with partially infinite coefficients

It is interesting to study the stress concentration between two adjacent stiff inclusions in composite materials, which can be modeled by the Lamé system with partially infinite coefficients. To overcome the difficulty from the lack of maximum principle for elliptic systems, we use the energy method and an iteration technique to study the gradient estimates of the solution. We first find a novel phenomenon that the gradient will not blow up any more once these two adjacent inclusions fail to be locally relatively strictly convex, namely, the top and bottom boundaries of the narrow region are partially "flat". This is contrary to our expectation. In order to further explore the blow-up mechanism of the gradient, we next investigate two adjacent inclusions with relative convexity of order m and finally reveal an underlying relationship between the blow-up rate of the stress and the order of the relative convexity of the subdomains in all dimensions.
