SIM: Subspace Interaction-based Method for Token-Level Text Anomaly Detection

Token-level text anomaly detection, as an emerging trend of text anomaly detection, moves beyond coarse-grained document-level detection by localizing anomalous tokens within text. By providing fine-grained abnormality prediction, token-level text anomaly detection plays a critical role in various real-world applications, such as spam filtering and fake news detection. However, existing methods still rely on the global distance calculation for scoring, during which the local anomaly signals are severely diluted by numerous redundant normal feature dimensions. Moreover, pre-trained language models used in these methods inevitably smooth out surface anomalies, further limiting their effectiveness in token-level anomaly detection. To address these limitations, we propose a Subspace Interaction-based Method (SIM for short) for token-level text anomaly detection. To prevent local signal dilution, SIM adopts a subspace interaction-based anomaly detector, which decouples high-dimensional token embeddings into multiple low-dimensional ones, amplifying localized anomaly signals hidden within specific dimensions. To counteract the over-smoothing effect, we design a hard pseudo-anomaly generation module to construct pseudo-anomalous tokens, simulating the subtle anomalies obscured by semantic smoothing. Also, a probabilistic boundary loss is developed to standardize anomaly scores into statistical distances, effectively enforcing anomalous instances to deviate significantly from the normal distribution center. Extensive experiments on multiple benchmark datasets verify the effectiveness of SIM and demonstrate its remarkable efficiency, robustness, and interpretability.

HOPE: Heterophily-Aware Open-Set Node Classification with Pseudo-Extrapolation

Standard open-set node classification methods rely on the homophily assumption, where connected nodes share labels. However, real-world graphs are often heterophilic, exposing the limitations of current methods and posing new challenges to open-set node classification. On the one hand, cross-class connectivity causes representations from different known or unknown classes to become intertwined after aggregation, undermining their discriminative capacity. On the other hand, structural mixture invalidates threshold-based open-set methods and cross-class feature interpolation, leading to unreliable unknown-class rejection. To address these challenges, we propose HOPE, a Heterophily-aware Open-set node classification method with Pseudo-Extrapolation. To adapt open-set graph neural networks (GNNs) to heterophilic scenarios, HOPE uses a structure-augmented feature initialization layer to capture multi-hop structural patterns. Meanwhile, we design a trustworthy neighborhood aggregation mechanism for standard GNNs to dynamically filter noisy cross-class neighbors. To enhance unknown-class rejection, we introduce a heterophily-guided pseudo-extrapolation strategy. It dynamically maintains known-class centers and extrapolates along cross-class neighborhood displacement directions, synthesizing pseudo-unknown proxies near structurally ambiguous regions. Finally, we optimize the network with joint classification and logit margin regularization, routing synthetic proxies into a dedicated rejection slot without imposing geometric margin constraints in the representation space. Extensive experiments on multiple datasets show that HOPE consistently outperforms state-of-the-art models, validating its effectiveness, robustness, and efficiency.

PaSta: Noisy Node Classification with Partial Label Learning

Noisy node classification problem is a fundamental yet challenging task for real-world graph-related web services, where node labels are often corrupted or unreliable due to weak supervision or automatic annotation. However, existing methods typically train models based on one-hot labels, which not only makes models susceptible to overfitting on noisy labels, but also leads to error accumulation after pseudo-label-guided enhancement. In this paper, we propose a novel Partial label-based Self-training framework (PaSta for short) that leverages partial label learning technique to overcome the limitations of existing methods. Specifically, PaSta first trains multiple annotators to comprehensively capture the class distribution of nodes and aggregates their predictions to construct high-quality partial labels. Subsequently, we design a partial label-based classification model with two well-crafted loss functions to guide the model learning at both label and representation spaces. To further enhance the robustness against noisy labels, we introduce a self-training strategy where the labels refined by partial label learning are then used to further optimize the annotators in a closed-loop iterative manner. Extensive experiments on five datasets demonstrate that, compared with existing state-of-the-art methods, PaSta achieves an average improvement of 1.1% in classification performance under various noise settings.

Extending the Constituent Gluon Model to Heavy-Flavour Hybrids: A Unified Study of $c\bar{c}g$ Mesons

We investigate the mass spectra and two-body strong decay properties of ground charmonium hybrids within the framework of a constituent gluon model. Based on the assumption that non-perturbative QCD endows the gluon with an effective mass, we extend the chiral quark model by introducing a single new parameter, the constituent gluon mass $m_g=450$~MeV, which is fixed from previous studies of light hybrids, while other parameters are taken directly from successful descriptions of ordinary meson spectra. We systematically compute the spectra for various quantum numbers and find good agreement with results from lattice QCD, potential models, and other approaches. The corresponding decay widths are also reasonable. For experimental searches, we recommend focusing on the exotic $1^{-+}$ and $2^{+-}$ states, which decay prominently into $D\bar{D}_1$ and $D\bar{D}_2^*$ channels, respectively. Among ordinary quantum numbers, the $0^{-+}$, $2^{-+}$, and $1^{+-}$ states with significant decays into orbitally excited charm mesons are also suggested. Our results provide a unified and consistent description of charmonium hybrids and offer clear guidance for future experimental identification.

CORE: In-Context Reconstruction for Unified Tabular Anomaly Detection

Tabular anomaly detection (TAD), which focuses on identifying abnormal samples that deviate from the majority in tabular data, has received growing attention. Recently, there has been an emerging trend towards unified TAD, which seeks to detect anomalies across different datasets using a single generalizable model. In unified TAD, aligning heterogeneous data remains challenging. While existing methods often rely on distance-based unified feature construction, they may obscure the semantics of the original features. Moreover, existing approaches typically formulate anomaly detection as a binary classification task, which may overlook diverse anomaly patterns from various datasets and be misled by unrepresentative synthetic anomalies. To address these challenges, we propose an in-COntext REconstruction approach for unified TAD (CORE for short). It introduces a decorrelated feature alignment module to directly align heterogeneous features into a unified representation space, which retains their semantic information. Meanwhile, CORE formulates unified TAD as an in-context reconstruction problem, eliminating the need for labeled or synthesized anomalies. Specifically, the in-context reconstruction module reconstructs each sample by leveraging contextual normal samples to capture dataset-specific distributions, such that reconstruction errors reflect its deviation from normality, facilitating unified TAD on arbitrary unseen datasets.

A2TTA: Anchored-and-Agile Test-Time Adaptation for Evolving Traffic Sensor Networks

Traffic forecasting is important for efficient traffic management and route planning in smart cities. Existing traffic forecasting studies typically assume fixed sensor graphs, overlooking the continuous evolution of real-world traffic networks, e.g., ongoing road network construction and evolving human mobility patterns. These dynamic changes can substantially degrade conventional forecasting models, motivating test-time adaptation (TTA) to efficiently adapt pretrained models during deployment. However, applying TTA to evolving traffic sensor networks remains challenging in two aspects. First, topology expansion introduces new sensors and connections, continuously reshaping the sensor graph. Second, tem- poral shifts vary in time scale and stability, requiring differentiated adaptation to long-term and short-term shifts. In this study, we address these challenges by proposing A2TTA, an Anchored-and-Agile Test-Time Adaptation framework for evolving traffic sensor networks, which transforms topology-induced forecasting errors into an expandable output calibration problem and separates tem- poral adaptation into persistent global correction and agile context-specific specialization. By jointly addressing topology evolution and multi-scale temporal shifts, A2TTA enables efficient and robust adaptation to continuously evolving traffic environments. Extensive experiments on ten real-world traffic networks demonstrate that A2TTA consistently improves forecasting performance across different backbones, datasets, and prediction horizons. Our code is available in https://github.com/lixus7/A2TTA.

DeMTS: Denoising Trajectories as Multivariate Time Series for Hallucination Detection in Diffusion Language Models

Diffusion large language models (D-LLMs) have emerged as a promising paradigm for text generation. However, similar to autoregressive LLMs, D-LLMs remain vulnerable to hallucinations, where fluent outputs may contain factually incorrect or unsupported content. Although existing hallucination detection methods for D-LLMs attempt to leverage uncertainty trajectories of the denoising process to better identify hallucination signals, they typically compress the trajectories along either the temporal or token dimension, overlooking the useful information encoded in the complete two-dimensional token-step structure. Consequently, they may fail to capture hallucination-relevant patterns, such as inconsistent convergence and cross-token fault propagation, leading to suboptimal detection performance. To bridge this gap, we propose a D-LLM hallucination detection framework that formulates the Denoising trajectories as Multivariate Time Series over learnable latent variables (DeMTS for short). DeMTS employs a trajectory-preserving token-to-variable assignment module to convert token signals into stable latent variables. Based on these variables, we propose dynamic multivariate temporal modeling to progressively integrate inter-variable dependency modeling with temporal encoding for hallucination prediction. Extensive experiments on two D-LLMs backbones and three benchmarks demonstrate that DeMTS outperforms existing hallucination detection methods while maintaining strong robustness, efficiency, and cross-task transferability.

TRE: Training-Free Hallucination Detection for Diffusion Language Models

Diffusion large language models (D-LLMs) have recently gained increasing attention, yet their reliability is significantly hindered by the hallucination problem. Existing hallucination detection approaches for D-LLMs mainly follow a training-based paradigm, relying on data-driven training to optimize the detector. Such reliance not only limits their generalizability across domains models but also incurs additional training cost and deployment overhead. To address these limitations, we propose TRE, a training-free hallucination detection metric for D-LLMs. TRE is a parameter-free and single-run metric that estimates hallucination risk directly from the entropy signals of a single generation, without requiring any detector training or repeated sampling. TRE extracts entropy signals within the D-LLM decoding process along both the spatial and temporal dimensions. From a token-level spatial perspective, we focus on revealing tokens as the most informative carriers of uncertainty, capturing where uncertainty is actively committed. From a diffusion step-level temporal perspective, we empirically identify the dominance of late-step entropy and hence aggregate these signals with a simple linear weighting scheme to obtain TRE. Extensive experiments on multiple D-LLMs and QA datasets demonstrate that TRE achieves competitive performance, while enjoying strong generalizability, efficiency, and robustness.

Towards Anomaly Detection on Relational Data

Relational databases are widely used for managing structured data in real-world systems. Detecting anomalies from such relational data is crucial for identifying fraud, risks, and abnormal behaviors, yet remains under-explored. The key challenges lie in the intrinsic complexity of relational data: multi-table attributes are high-dimensional and heterogeneous, making sparse abnormal clues easy to overwhelm by normal or irrelevant information. Moreover, anomalies may further manifest as abnormal connection patterns across different foreign-key relations, which existing tabular and graph anomaly detection methods are ill-suited to capture. To address them, we propose RelAD, a reconstruction-based framework that captures anomalies from both attribute and relational edge reconstruction. RelAD contains two core modules: conditional sparse-gated attribute reconstruction, which suppresses redundant multi-table attributes and emphasizes abnormal semantic blocks, and dual-view multi-relational edge reconstruction, which detects relation-specific abnormal connections from both intrinsic and behavioral instance profiles. The resulting attribute and relational signals are integrated through a lightweight fusion module to produce the final anomaly score. We further construct 6 benchmark datasets with systematic anomalies, on which extensive experiments show that RelAD consistently outperforms baselines while achieving competitive efficiency..The source code is available at https://github.com/Shiy-Li/RelAD.

Investigation of fully heavy tetraquark within chiral quark model

In the framework of the Chiral quark model (ChQM), we investigate the fully charmed and fully bottomed tetraquark with $J^{PC}=2^{++}$ including two structures: $Q\bar{Q}-Q\bar{Q}$ and $QQ-\bar{Q}\bar{Q}$. The bound-state calculation shows that there is no bound state in either $cc\bar{c}\bar{c}$ or $bb\bar{b}\bar{b}$ systems. However, by using the real-scaling method, some resonance states are obtained. For the $cc\bar{c}\bar{c}$ system, when the channel-coupling includes only three $S$-wave channels, two resonant states are obtained: one with a mass around $7002$ MeV and decay width near $54$ MeV, and another with a mass around $7227$ MeV and a decay width near $66$ MeV. The former can be regarded as a candidate for the $X(6900)$, and the latter can be considered as a candidate for the $X(7200)$. Upon adding the $\chi_{c0}\chi_{c2}$, $\chi_{c1}\chi_{c1}$, $\chi_{c1}\chi_{c2}$, $\chi_{c2}\chi_{c2}$ channels, both resonant states still remain. For the $bb\bar{b}\bar{b}$ system, only one resonant state is obtained, regardless of whether the four channels composition of the excited mesons are included or excluded. The mass and width of this resonant state are around $19743$ MeV and $67$ MeV, respectively. We suggest that future experiments search for the possible resonance state in the invariant mass spectrum of $\Upsilon \Upsilon$ or $\Upsilon \Upsilon(2S)$.

Watch, Remember, Reason: Human-View Video Understanding with MLLMs

Video understanding is being rapidly transformed by multimodal large language models (MLLMs), as research moves from short clips to long, multimodal, and knowledge-intensive video scenarios. These scenarios require models to handle sparse evidence, long-range dependencies, multimodal alignment, and reliable inference under limited computational budgets. This work presents a human-view perspective on LLM-based video understanding, organized around three functional abilities: watching, remembering, and reasoning. Rather than treating video tasks as isolated benchmarks, this view provides a unified structure for analyzing how video MLLMs acquire evidence, preserve context, and produce grounded outputs. We introduce a formulation that characterizes video understanding systems by their perceptual representations, memory states, reasoning traces, and final predictions. Based on this formulation, we identify challenges in spatio-temporal perception, efficient long-video processing, memory modeling, streaming understanding, and faithful reasoning. Representative methods are organized by their roles in video MLLM systems. Watching covers fine-grained, comprehensive, audio-visual, and efficient perception. Remembering includes offline and streaming memory, while reasoning covers text-only reasoning and thinking with videos. We further examine application domains such as egocentric, sports, instructional, medical, and narrative videos, and cover training datasets and evaluation benchmarks across task types, supervision formats, modalities, and capability dimensions. Finally, we outline open problems and future directions for scalable, memory-aware, and evidence-grounded video intelligence. Related works will be continuously traced at https://github.com/marinero4972/Awesome-HumanView-VideoUnderstanding.

Towards One-to-Many Temporal Grounding

Temporal Grounding (TG) aims to localize video segments corresponding to a textual query. Prior research predominantly focuses on single-segment retrieval. Real-world scenarios, however, often require localizing multiple disjoint segments for a single query -- a setting we term One-to-Many Temporal Grounding (OMTG). Previous state-of-the-art MLLMs, optimized for one-to-one settings, struggle in this context, often yielding near-zero scores due to a lack of event cardinality perception. To bridge this gap, we present a systematic solution with three key contributions. First, we establish the first comprehensive OMTG benchmark, introducing Count Accuracy (C-Acc) and Effective Temporal F1 (EtF1) as evaluation metrics. Second, we curate a high-quality OMTG dataset comprising 56k samples through a sophisticated construction pipeline. Third, we develop novel temporal and caption reward functions specifically designed for OMTG. In particular, the caption reward leverages Chain-of-Thought reasoning over dense video captions to explicitly guide policy optimization toward both preciseness and completeness. Extensive experiments show our model achieves a new state-of-the-art EtF1 of 43.65\% on OMTG Bench, outperforming Gemini 2.5 Pro and Seed-1.8 by 15.85\% and 15.61\%, respectively.

FedCIGAR: A Personalized Reconstruction Approach for Federated Graph-level Anomaly Detection

Graph-level anomaly detection (GLAD) is crucial for ensuring the reliability of graph-driven applications by identifying abnormal graphs that deviate from the majority. Considering the privacy concerns in distributed scenarios, federated graph-level anomaly detection (FedGLAD) has emerged as a promising solution to enable collaborative detection without sharing raw data. However, existing methods suffer from poor generalization due to the reliance on unrealistic synthetic anomalies and insufficient personalization capabilities under data heterogeneity. To address these challenges, we propose a novel Federated graph-level anomaly detection approach with Cluster-adaptIve GAted Reconstruction (FedCIGAR). Specifically, we design a reconstruction-based paradigm trained on normal graphs to avoid synthetic data. Furthermore, we introduce a client-side node contribution gating mechanism and a server-side sliding window-based clustering strategy to tackle data heterogeneity. Extensive experiments demonstrate that FedCIGAR achieves superior performance and robustness in contrast to state-of-the-art methods.

DynHD: Hallucination Detection for Diffusion Large Language Models via Denoising Dynamics Deviation Learning

Diffusion large language models (D-LLMs) have emerged as a promising alternative to auto-regressive models due to their iterative refinement capabilities. However, hallucinations remain a critical issue that hinders their reliability. To detect hallucination responses from model outputs, token-level uncertainty, such as entropy, has been widely used to indicate potential factual errors. Nevertheless, unlike auto-regressive models that generate tokens sequentially, D-LLMs generate fixed-length sequences simultaneously, where only a small subset of tokens is informative for hallucination detection. Thus, aggregating uncertainty over all tokens can be suboptimal. Moreover, the evolution trend of uncertainty throughout the diffusion process can also provide valuable signals, highlighting the necessity of modeling its denoising dynamics for hallucination detection. In this paper, we propose DynHD, which bridges these gaps from both spatial (token sequence) and temporal (denoising dynamics) perspectives. To handle the information density imbalance across tokens, we propose a semantic-aware evidence construction module that extracts hallucination-indicative signals by removing task-invariant structural tokens and emphasizing the uncertainty of the remaining informative tokens. To model denoising dynamics for hallucination detection, we introduce a reference evidence generator that learns the expected evolution trajectory of uncertainty evidence, along with a deviation-based hallucination detector that makes predictions by measuring the discrepancy between the observed and reference trajectories. Extensive experiments demonstrate that DynHD consistently outperforms state-of-the-art baselines while achieving higher efficiency across multiple benchmarks and backbone models.

Investigating $\Omega \phi$ Interaction and Correlation Functions

In this work, we investigate the interaction between the $\Omega$ baryon and the $s\bar{s}$ meson within the framework of the quark delocalization color screening model. The spectra calculations show that no bound state is formed in any of the considered channels, while the scattering indicates that the $\Omega\phi$ interaction with $J^{P}=1/2^{-}$ is weakly attractive. As for the $\Omega\phi$ interactions with $J^{P}=3/2^{-}$ and $5/2^{-}$, as well as the $\Omega\eta^{\prime}$ interaction with $J^{P}=3/2^{-}$, they are all repulsive. After an investigation on the femtoscopic correlation functions, we find that, due to the spin-averaging effect, the overall $\Omega\phi$ correlation function exhibits a weak dependence on the source size, which provides a crucial significance of our model for future experimental examinations in relativistic heavy-ion collisions.

Dynamical study of hidden-strange pentaquarks as analogs of the hidden-charm states

Motivated by the recent BESIII experiment~\cite{BESIII:2024muk} searching for hidden-strange exotic hadrons, we perform a systematic theoretical study of the hidden-strange pentaquark system within the framework of the quark delocalization color screening model (QDCSM) and the resonating group method (RGM). Our results demonstrate that the channel coupling effect plays a decisive role in the formation of bound and resonance states. It not only significantly enhances the short-range attraction but also induces essential attractive contributions from pion exchange. We predict three bound states with masses of $1759$ MeV, $2000$ MeV, and $2407$ MeV. Furthermore, we report the existence of a hidden-strange pentaquark resonance state, $\Xi K^{\ast}$, with quantum numbers $I(J^{P})=0(1/2^{-})$. This resonance is identified in the $S$-wave scattering phase shifts of the $\Lambda\eta_{s}$ and $\Lambda \phi$ open channels, with a predicted mass in the range of $2204\text{--}2208$ MeV. By accounting for both the scattering width from channel coupling and the intrinsic decay width of the constituent $K^{\ast}$, the total decay width is estimated to be $55\text{--}63$ MeV. These theoretical predictions provide important guidance for future experimental searches for such exotic states at facilities like BESIII.

Investigation of Resonances in the $\Sigma({1/2}^{-})$ System Based on the Chiral Quark Model

In this work, we investigate the resonance structures in the $\Sigma(1/2^-)$ system from both three-quark and five-quark perspectives within the framework of the chiral quark model. An accurate few-body computational approach, the Gaussian Expansion Method, is employed to construct the orbital wave functions of multiquark states. To reduce the model dependence on parameters, we fit two sets of parameters to check the stability of the results. The calculations show that our results remain stable despite changes in the parameters. In the three-quark calculations, two $\Sigma(1/2^-)$ states are obtained with energies around 1.8~GeV, which are good candidates for the experimentally observed $\Sigma(1750)$ and $\Sigma(1900)$. In the five-quark configuration, several stable resonance states are identified, including $\Sigma \pi$, $N \bar{K}$, and $N \bar{K}^{*}$. These resonance states survive the channel-coupling calculations under the complex-scaling framework and manifest as stable structures. Our results support the existence of a two-pole structure for the $\Sigma(1/2^-)$ system, predominantly composed of $\Sigma \pi$ and $N \bar{K}$ configurations, analogous to the well-known $\Lambda(1380)$-$\Lambda(1405)$ ($\Sigma \pi$-$N \bar{K}$) system. On the other hand, although the energy of the $N \bar{K}^{*}$ configuration is close to that of $\Sigma(1750)$ and $\Sigma(1900)$, the obtained width is not consistent with the experimental values. This suggests that the $N \bar{K}^{*}$ state needs to mix with three-quark components to better explain the experimental $\Sigma(1750)$ and $\Sigma(1900)$ states. According to our decay width calculations, the predicted two resonance states are primarily composed of $\Sigma \pi$ and $N \bar{K}$, with their main decay channel being $\Lambda \pi$.

Open-o3-Video: Grounded Video Reasoning with Explicit Spatio-Temporal Evidence

Most video reasoning models only generate textual reasoning traces without indicating when and where key evidence appears. Recent models such as OpenAI-o3 have sparked wide interest in evidence-centered reasoning for images, yet extending this ability to videos is more challenging due to the need for joint temporal tracking and spatial localization across dynamic scenes. We introduce Open-o3-Video, a non-agent framework that integrates explicit spatio-temporal evidence into video reasoning by highlighting key timestamps, objects, and bounding boxes, making the reasoning process traceable and verifiable. To enable this capability, we first construct high-quality datasets STGR that provide unified spatio-temporal supervision, which is absent in existing resources. We further adopt a cold-start reinforcement learning strategy with specially designed rewards that jointly encourage answer accuracy, temporal alignment, and spatial precision. On the V-STAR benchmark, Open-o3-Video achieves state-of-the-art performance, improving mAM by 14.4% and mLGM by 24.2% over the Qwen2.5-VL baseline, and shows consistent gains across a range of video understanding benchmarks. Beyond accuracy, the grounded reasoning traces produced by Open-o3-Video support confidence-aware test-time scaling, improving answer reliability.
