Learning Multi-Relational Graph Representations for DNA Methylation-Based Biological Age Estimation

Aging clocks aim to estimate biological age, a measure of physiological state distinct from chronological age, from observable biomarkers, and are widely used for health assessment and disease analysis. DNA methylation is a particularly informative biomarker due to its stability and strong association with aging, and recent learning-based approaches have improved predictive performance. However, most existing methods treat CpG sites as independent features, overlooking the complex and heterogeneous biological relationships among them. We propose RelAge-GNN, a multi-relational graph neural network framework for DNA methylation-based age prediction. Our method constructs three complementary graphs capturing co-methylation patterns, genomic co-localization, and gene-level associations among CpG sites. Each graph is modeled by an independent GNN branch, and a learnable gating mechanism adaptively fuses the resulting representations. Experiments on large-scale datasets show that RelAge-GNN achieves competitive accuracy and stronger correlation with chronological age compared to state-of-the-art methods. Moreover, the model exhibits improved sensitivity in detecting age acceleration across diverse disease cohorts, highlighting its potential utility for disease characterization. Finally, through post hoc interpretability analyses, we quantify the contributions of different relational structures and CpG sites, providing biologically meaningful insights and suggesting potential directions for aging-related research.

MixSD: Mixed Contextual Self-Distillation for Knowledge Injection

Supervised fine-tuning (SFT) is widely used to inject new knowledge into language models, but it often degrades pretrained capabilities such as reasoning and general-domain performance. We argue this forgetting arises because fine-tuning targets from humans or external systems diverge from the model's autoregressive distribution, forcing the optimizer to imitate low-probability token sequences. To address this problem, we propose MixSD, a simple external-teacher-free method for distribution-aligned knowledge injection. Instead of training on fixed targets, MixSD constructs supervision dynamically by mixing tokens from two conditionals of the base model itself: an expert conditional that observes the injected fact in context, and a naive conditional that reflects the model's original prior. The resulting supervision sequences preserve the factual learning signal while remaining substantially closer to the base model's distribution. We evaluate MixSD on two synthetic corpora that we construct to study factual recall and arithmetic function acquisition in a controlled setting, together with established benchmarks for open-domain factual question answering and knowledge editing. Across multiple model scales and settings, MixSD consistently achieves a better memorization-retention trade-off compared to SFT and on-policy self distillation baselines, retaining up to 100% of the base model's held-out capability while maintaining near-perfect training accuracy, whereas standard SFT retains as little as 1%. We further show that MixSD produces substantially lower-NLL supervision targets under the base model and reduces harmful movement along Fisher-sensitive parameter directions. These results suggest that aligning supervision with the model's native generation distribution is a simple and effective principle for knowledge injection that mitigates catastrophic forgetting.

UFO: A Unified Flow-Oriented Framework for Robust Continual Graph Learning

Graph learning research has increasingly shifted toward continual graph learning (CGL), which better reflects real-world scenarios where graphs evolve over time. However, existing CGL methods largely assume clean supervision and overlook a critical challenge: the newly arriving portions of the graph are often noisy, due to annotation errors or adversarial corruption. This mismatch limits their applicability in practice. In this work, we study robust continual graph learning, where models must simultaneously handle catastrophic forgetting and noisy supervision in evolving graph data. We show that label noise introduces a new failure mode, catastrophic remembering, where models persistently reinforce corrupted knowledge across tasks. To address these challenges, we propose a Unified Flow-Oriented framework (UFO). First, UFO models conditional feature distributions via flow-based generative modeling and produces replay representations, mitigating forgetting without storing historical data. Second, UFO estimates instance-level reliability scores to distinguish clean from noisy nodes, reducing the impact of corrupted supervision and alleviating catastrophic remembering. Extensive experiments on four benchmark graph datasets under varying noise ratios demonstrate that UFO consistently outperforms existing methods in both accuracy and forgetting metrics.

Differentiable Quantum Architecture Search For Job Shop Scheduling Problem

The Job shop scheduling problem (JSSP) plays a pivotal role in industrial applications, such as signal processing (SP) and steel manufacturing, involving sequencing machines and jobs to maximize scheduling efficiency. Before, JSSP was solved using manually defined circuits by variational quantum algorithm (VQA). Finding a good circuit architecture is task-specific and time-consuming. Differentiable quantum architecture search (DQAS) is a gradient-based framework that can automatically design circuits. However, DQAS is only tested on quantum approximate optimization algorithm (QAOA) and error mitigation tasks. Whether DQAS applies to JSSP based on a more flexible algorithm, such as variational quantum eigensolver (VQE), is still open for optimization problems. In this work, we redefine the operation pool and extend DQAS to a framework JSSP-DQAS by evaluating circuits to generate circuits for JSSP automatically. The experiments conclude that JSSP-DQAS can automatically find noise-resilient circuit architectures that perform much better than manually designed circuits. It helps to improve the efficiency of solving JSSP.

Copositivity for 3rd order symmetric tensors and applications

The strict opositivity of 4th order symmetric tensor may apply to detect vacuum stability of general scalar potential. For finding analytical expressions of (strict) opositivity of 4th order symmetric tensor, we may reduce its order to 3rd order to better deal with it. So, it is provided that several analytically sufficient conditions for the copositivity of 3th order 2 dimensional (3 dimensional) symmetric tensors. Subsequently, applying these conclusions to 4th order tensors, the analytically sufficient conditions of copositivity are proved for 4th order 2 dimensional and 3 dimensional symmetric tensors. Finally, we apply these results to present analytical vacuum stability conditions for vacuum stability for $\mathbb{Z}_3$ scalar dark matter.
