EGL-SCA: Structural Credit Assignment for Co-Evolving Instructions and Tools in Graph Reasoning Agents

Graph reasoning agents operating from natural-language inputs must solve a coupled problem: they must reconstruct a structured graph instance from text, decide whether existing computational assets are sufficient, interact with tools under a strict execution protocol, and satisfy an external verifier that checks structured correctness rather than textual plausibility. Existing approaches usually improve either the instruction side or the tool side in isolation, which leaves unclear what should be updated after failure. We propose EGL-SCA, a verifier-centric dual-space framework that models a graph reasoning agent using two collaborative components: an instruction-side policy space for reasoning strategies, and a tool-side program space for executable algorithmic tools. Our central mechanism is structural credit assignment, which maps trajectory evidence to conditional updates, precisely routing failures to either prompt optimization or tool synthesis and repair. To provide sufficient learning signals for dual-space adaptation, we introduce a training distribution stratified by task family, coupled with a Pareto-style retention strategy to balance success, generality, and parsimony. Experiments on four graph reasoning benchmarks show that EGL-SCA achieves a state-of-the-art 92.0\% average success rate. By effectively co-evolving instructions and tools, our framework significantly outperforms both pure-prompting and fixed-toolbox baselines.

Fairness risk and its privacy-enabled solution in AI-driven robotic applications

Complex decision-making by autonomous machines and algorithms could underpin the foundations of future society. Generative AI is emerging as a powerful engine for such transitions. However, we show that Generative AI-driven developments pose a critical pitfall: fairness concerns. In robotic applications, although intuitions about fairness are common, a precise and implementable definition that captures user utility and inherent data randomness is missing. Here we provide a utility-aware fairness metric for robotic decision making and analyze fairness jointly with user-data privacy, deriving conditions under which privacy budgets govern fairness metrics. This yields a unified framework that formalizes and quantifies fairness and its interplay with privacy, which is tested in a robot navigation task. In view of the fact that under legal requirements, most robotic systems will enforce user privacy, the approach shows surprisingly that such privacy budgets can be jointly used to meet fairness targets. Addressing fairness concerns in the creative combined consideration of privacy is a step towards ethical use of AI and strengthens trust in autonomous robots deployed in everyday environments.

Foreground Object Structure Transfer for Unsupervised Domain Adaptation

Unsupervised domain adaptation aims to train a classification model from the labeled source domain for the unlabeled target domain. Since the data distributions of the two domains are different, the model often performs poorly on the target domain. Existing methods align the feature distributions of the source and target domains and learn domain-invariant features to improve the performance of the model. However, the features are usually aligned as a whole, and the domain adaptation task fails to serve the classification, which will ignore the class information and lead to misalignment.In this paper, we investigate those features that should be used for domain alignment, introduce prior knowledge to extract foreground features to guide the domain adaptation task for classification tasks, and perform alignment in the local structure of objects. We propose a method called Foreground Object Structure Transfer(FOST). The key to FOST is the new clustering based condition, which combines the relative position relationship of foreground objects. Based on this conditions, FOST makes the data distribution of the same class more compact in geometry. In practice, since the label of the target domain is not available, we use the clustering information of the source domain to assign pseudo labels to the target domain samples, and then according to the source domain data prior knowledge guides those positive features to maximum the inter-class distance between different classes and mimimum the intra-class distance. Extensive experimental results on various benchmarks ($i.e.$ ImageCLEF-DA, Office-31, Office-Home, Visda-2017) under different domain adaptation settings prove that our FOST compares favorably against the existing state-of-the-art domain adaptation methods.

Temperature-linear Resistivity in Twisted Double Bilayer Graphene

We report an experimental study of carrier density (n), displacement field (D) and twist angle (θ) dependence of temperature (T)-linear resistivity in twisted double bilayer graphene (TDBG). For a large twist angle (θ>1.5°) where correlated insulating states are absent, we observe a T-linear resistivity (with the slope of the order ~10Ω/K) over a wide range of carrier density and its slope decreases with increasing of n, in agreement with acoustic phonon scattering model semi-quantitatively. The slope of T-linear resistivity is non-monotonically dependent on the displacement field with a single peak structure. For device with θ~1.23° at which correlated states emerge, the slope of T-linear resistivity is found maximum (~100Ω/K) at the boundary of the halo structure where phase transition occurs, with signatures of continuous phase transition, Planckian dissipation, and the diverging effective mass; these observations are in line with quantum critical behaviors, which might be due to the symmetry-breaking instability at the critical points. Our results shed new light on correlated physics in TDBG and other twisted moiré systems.

Isospin competitions and valley polarized correlated insulators in twisted double bilayer graphene

New phase of matter usually emerges when a given symmetry breaks spontaneously, which can involve charge, spin, and valley degree of freedoms. Here, we report an observation of new correlated insulators evolved from spin polarized states to valley polarized states in AB-BA stacked twisted double bilayer graphene (TDBG). The transition of the isospin polarization is a result of the competition between spin and valley, driven by the displacement field (D). At a high field |D| > 0.7 V/nm, we observe valley polarized correlated insulators with a big Zeeman g factor of ~10, both at v = 2 in the moiré conduction band and more surprisingly at v = -2 in the moiré valence band. At a medium field |D| < 0.6 V/nm, by contrast, it is a conventional spin polarized correlated insulator at v = 2 and a featureless metal at v = -2. Moreover, we observe a valley polarized Chern insulator with C = 2 emanating at v = 2 in the electron side and a valley polarized Fermi surface around v = -2 in the hole side. The valley Chern insulator with C = 2 is evident from a well quantized Hall conductance plateau at 2e^2/h and correspondingly a vanishing longitudinal component. The valley polarized Fermi surface is topologically trivial with C = 0, and it shows a series of quantized Landau levels with v_LL = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and others. These observations are in good agreements with our band and topology calculations. Our results demonstrate a feasible way to realize isospin control and to obtain new phases of matter in TDBG by the displacement field, and might benefit other twisted or non-twisted multilayer systems.

Spatially indirect intervalley excitons in bilayer WSe2

Spatially indirect excitons with displaced wavefunctions of electrons and holes play a pivotal role in a large portfolio of fascinating physical phenomena and emerging optoelectronic applications, such as valleytronics, exciton spin Hall effect, excitonic integrated circuit and high-temperature superfluidity. Here, we uncover three types of spatially indirect excitons (including their phonon replicas) and their quantum-confined Stark effects in hexagonal boron nitride encapsulated bilayer WSe2, by performing electric field-tunable photoluminescence measurements. Because of different out-of-plane electric dipole moments, the energy order between the three types of spatially indirect excitons can be switched by a vertical electric field. Remarkably, we demonstrate, assisted by first-principles calculations, that the observed spatially indirect excitons in bilayer WSe2 are also momentum-indirect, involving electrons and holes from Q and K/Γ valleys in the Brillouin zone, respectively. This is in contrast to the previously reported spatially indirect excitons with electrons and holes localized in the same valley. Furthermore, we find that the spatially indirect intervalley excitons in bilayer WSe2 can exhibit considerable, doping-sensitive circular polarization. The spatially indirect excitons with momentum-dark nature and highly tunable circular polarization open new avenues for exotic valley physics and technological innovations in photonics and optoelectronics.
