Accelerated MR Elastography Using Learned Neural Network Representation

To develop a deep-learning method for achieving fast high-resolution MR elastography from highly undersampled data without the need of high-quality training dataset. We first framed the deep neural network representation as a nonlinear extension of the linear subspace model, then used it to represent and reconstruct MRE image repetitions from undersampled k-space data. The network weights were learned using a multi-level k-space consistent loss in a self-supervised manner. To further enhance reconstruction quality, phase-contrast specific magnitude and phase priors were incorporated, including the similarity of anatomical structures and smoothness of wave-induced harmonic displacement. Experiments were conducted using both 3D gradient-echo spiral and multi-slice spin-echo spiral MRE datasets. Compared to the conventional linear subspace-based approaches, the nonlinear network representation method was able to produce superior image reconstruction with suppressed noise and artifacts from a single in-plane spiral arm per MRE repetition (e.g., total R=10), yielding comparable stiffness estimation to the fully sampled data. This work demonstrated the feasibility of using deep network representations to model and reconstruct MRE images from highly-undersampled data, a nonlinear extension of the subspace-based approaches.

Semantic-Consistent Bidirectional Contrastive Hashing for Noisy Multi-Label Cross-Modal Retrieval

Cross-modal hashing (CMH) facilitates efficient retrieval across different modalities (e.g., image and text) by encoding data into compact binary representations. While recent methods have achieved remarkable performance, they often rely heavily on fully annotated datasets, which are costly and labor-intensive to obtain. In real-world scenarios, particularly in multi-label datasets, label noise is prevalent and severely degrades retrieval performance. Moreover, existing CMH approaches typically overlook the partial semantic overlaps inherent in multi-label data, limiting their robustness and generalization. To tackle these challenges, we propose a novel framework named Semantic-Consistent Bidirectional Contrastive Hashing (SCBCH). The framework comprises two complementary modules: (1) Cross-modal Semantic-Consistent Classification (CSCC), which leverages cross-modal semantic consistency to estimate sample reliability and reduce the impact of noisy labels; (2) Bidirectional Soft Contrastive Hashing (BSCH), which dynamically generates soft contrastive sample pairs based on multi-label semantic overlap, enabling adaptive contrastive learning between semantically similar and dissimilar samples across modalities. Extensive experiments on four widely-used cross-modal retrieval benchmarks validate the effectiveness and robustness of our method, consistently outperforming state-of-the-art approaches under noisy multi-label conditions.

Towards In-Depth Root Cause Localization for Microservices with Multi-Agent Recursion-of-Thought

As modern microservice systems grow increasingly complex due to dynamic interactions and evolving runtime environments, they experience failures with rising frequency. Ensuring system reliability therefore critically depends on accurate root cause localization (RCL). While numerous traditional machine learning and deep learning approaches have been explored for this task, they often suffer from limited interpretability and poor transferability across deployments. More recently, large language model (LLM)-based methods have been proposed to address these issues. However, existing LLM-based approaches still face two fundamental limitations: context explosion, which dilutes critical evidence and degrades localization accuracy, and serial reasoning structures, which hinder deep causal exploration and impair inference efficiency. In this paper, we conduct a comprehensive study of both how human SREs perform root cause localization in practice and why existing LLM-based methods fall short. Motivated by these findings, we introduce RCLAgent, an in-depth root cause localization framework for microservice systems that realizes multi-agent recursion-of-thought with parallel reasoning. RCLAgent decomposes the diagnostic process along the trace graph by assigning each span to a Dedicated Agent and organizing agents recursively and in parallel according to the graph topology, with the final diagnosis obtained by synthesizing the Root-Level Diagnosis Report and the Global Evidence Graph. Extensive experiments on multiple public benchmarks demonstrate that RCLAgent consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods in both localization accuracy and inference efficiency.
