Achieving Rate-Concurrency Balance for Underwater Concurrent Random Access

Underwater acoustic networks face a fundamental rate--concurrency tradeoff: high-rate waveforms (e.g., OFDM, OTFS) are designed for point-to-point links and rely on orthogonal MAC protocols (e.g., TDMA) to avoid collisions, sacrificing concurrency; conversely, collision-resilient waveforms (e.g., CDMA, ZCMod) support uncoordinated access but are inherently rate-limited by spreading or sparse index modulation. We present \system, a cross-layer concurrent random-access system that combines two new components: (i) \textbf{EZCDM}, an equidistant ZC division-multiplexing waveform that activates multiple cyclic shifts of a ZC root as parallel sub-channels with a tunable rate--robustness tradeoff, and an intra-symbol differential receiver that eliminates the shared multipath channel response without explicit CIR estimation; and (ii) a \textbf{cross-layer link adaptation (LA) framework} featuring beacon-framed random access, user-specific closed-loop power control, and overlap- and CIR-aware common-MS selection. Channel-trace- and signal-trace-driven physical-layer experiments combined with PHY-in-the-loop network simulations demonstrate that \system\ achieves significant BER and throughput gains over conventional waveforms and MAC protocols by converting traditionally destructive collisions into decodable concurrent streams.

Enhancing Trust-Region Bayesian Optimization via Newton Methods

Bayesian Optimization (BO) has been widely applied to optimize expensive black-box functions while retaining sample efficiency. However, scaling BO to high-dimensional spaces remains challenging. Existing literature proposes performing standard BO in multiple local trust regions (TuRBO) for heterogeneous modeling of the objective function and avoiding over-exploration. Despite its advantages, using local Gaussian Processes (GPs) reduces sampling efficiency compared to a global GP. To enhance sampling efficiency while preserving heterogeneous modeling, we propose to construct multiple local quadratic models using gradients and Hessians from a global GP, and select new sample points by solving the bound-constrained quadratic program. Additionally, we address the issue of vanishing gradients of GPs in high-dimensional spaces. We provide a convergence analysis and demonstrate through experimental results that our method enhances the efficacy of TuRBO and outperforms a wide range of high-dimensional BO techniques on synthetic functions and real-world applications.

BYOCL: Build Your Own Consistent Latent with Hierarchical Representative Latent Clustering

To address the semantic inconsistency issue with SAM or other single-image segmentation models handling image sequences, we introduce BYOCL. This novel model outperforms SAM in extensive experiments, showcasing its Hierarchical prototype capabilities across CLIP and other representations. BYOCL significantly reduces time and space consumption by dividing inputs into smaller batches, achieving exponential time reduction compared to previous methods. Our approach leverages the SAM image encoder for feature extraction, followed by Intra-Batch and Inter-Batch clustering algorithms. Extensive experiments demonstrate that BYOCL far exceeds the previous state-of-the-art single image segmentation model. Our work is the first to apply consistent segmentation using foundation models without requiring training, utilizing plug-and-play modules for any latent space, making our method highly efficientModels are available at \href{https://github.com/cyt1202/BYOCL.git
