Tabular Foundation Models for Multi-View Information Cascade Popularity Prediction

Predicting the future popularity of information cascades is essential for understanding information diffusion on social media. Despite recent advances, existing methods face two key limitations: they focus primarily on the cascade view while overlooking other information views that drive user engagement, such as textual semantics, visual content, and tabular attributes; and they fail to capture high-order cross-view interactions. To address these issues, we propose \textbf{TFM4POP}, the first framework to introduce tabular foundation models (TFMs) into popularity prediction, leveraging their pre-trained tabular priors to unify the modeling of multiple heterogeneous information views. Specifically, TFM4POP adopts a dual-branch design: the static branch employs a TFM as the feature-encoding backbone that jointly reasons over all static views through in-context learning to produce the static cascade representation, while the dynamic branch captures the continuous-time cascade dynamics with a dedicated Neural-ODE-based encoder. The two representations are then fused via cross-attention for the final prediction. Furthermore, to adapt the TFM to real cascade distributions, we apply parameter-efficient IA3 fine-tuning, achieving performance competitive with or better than full fine-tuning while updating substantially fewer parameters. In addition, we construct a comprehensive multi-view cascade benchmark that covers all four information views. Extensive experiments show that TFM4POP consistently outperforms state-of-the-art baselines across multiple datasets and observation settings.

Cyberbullying Governance on Social Media: A Unified Framework from Content Identification to Intervention

The proliferation of social media platforms and online communities has inadvertently catalyzed the spread of cyberbullying, hate speech, and other forms of online toxicity, making the effective governance of such harm a critical societal and computational challenge. While significant strides have been made in automating content moderation, existing research predominantly treats cyberbullying governance as passive, isolated detection at the post level. This reductionist view overlooks the continuous behavioral dynamics of users, the structural diffusion of toxic events, and the critical need for proactive mitigation. To bridge these gaps, this paper proposes a unified full-lifecycle governance framework that shifts the paradigm of cyberbullying governance from isolated static detection toward integrated, continuous, and proactive moderation. Drawing on cyberbullying research and adjacent fields, we systematically synthesize the state-of-the-art literature across four interconnected stages: (1) Content Identification, (2) User and Behavior Modeling, (3) Diffusion Dynamics and Early Warning, and (4) Intervention and Governance. Furthermore, we review available datasets and evaluation practices, and discuss emerging challenges including multimodality, explainability, algorithmic fairness, and the dual-use risks of generative AI, providing a roadmap for future research toward a safer and more resilient digital ecosystem.

Fine-Grained AI Model Caching and Downloading With Coordinated Multipoint Broadcasting in Multi-Cell Edge Networks

6G networks are envisioned to support on-demand AI model downloading to accommodate diverse inference requirements of end users. By proactively caching models at edge nodes, users can retrieve the requested models with low latency for on-device AI inference. However, the substantial size of contemporary AI models poses significant challenges for edge caching under limited storage capacity, as well as for the concurrent delivery of heterogeneous models over wireless channels. To address these challenges, we propose a fine-grained AI model caching and downloading system that exploits parameter reusability, stemming from the common practice of fine-tuning task-specific models from a shared pre-trained model with frozen parameters. This system selectively caches model parameter blocks (PBs) at edge nodes, eliminating redundant storage of reusable parameters across different cached models. Additionally, it incorporates coordinated multipoint (CoMP) broadcasting to simultaneously deliver reusable PBs to multiple users, thereby enhancing downlink spectrum utilization. Under this arrangement, we formulate a model downloading delay minimization problem to jointly optimize PB caching, migration (among edge nodes), and broadcasting beamforming. To tackle this intractable problem, we develop a distributed multi-agent learning framework that enables edge nodes to explicitly learn mutual influence among their actions, thereby facilitating cooperation. Furthermore, a data augmentation approach is proposed to adaptively generate synthetic training samples through a predictive model, boosting sample efficiency and accelerating policy learning. Both theoretical analysis and simulation experiments validate the superior convergence performance of the proposed learning framework.
