OCH3R: Object-Centric Holistic 3D Reconstruction

Object-centric scene understanding is a fundamental challenge in computer vision. Existing approaches often rely on multi-stage pipelines that first apply pre-trained segmentors to extract individual objects, followed by per-object 3D reconstruction. Such methods are computationally expensive, fragile to segmentation errors, and scale poorly with scene complexity. We introduce OCH3R, a unified framework for Object-Centric Holistic 3D Reconstruction from a single RGB image. OCH3R performs one forward pass to simultaneously predict all object instances with their 6D poses and detailed 3D reconstructions. The key idea is a transformer architecture that predicts per-pixel attributes, including CLIP-based category embeddings, metric depth, normalized object coordinates (NOCS), and a fixed number of 3D Gaussians representing each object. To supervise these Gaussian reconstructions, we transform them into canonical space using the predicted 6D poses and align them with pre-rendered canonical ground truth, avoiding costly per-image Gaussian label generation. On standard indoor benchmarks, OCH3R achieves state-of-the-art performance across monocular depth estimation, open-vocabulary semantic segmentation, and RGB-only category-level 6D pose estimation, while producing high-fidelity, editable per-object reconstructions. Crucially, inference is fully feed-forward and scales independently of the number of objects, offering orders-of-magnitude speedups over conventional multi-stage pipelines in cluttered scenes.

NEEDED: Introducing Hierarchical Transformer to Eye Diseases Diagnosis

With the development of natural language processing techniques(NLP), automatic diagnosis of eye diseases using ophthalmology electronic medical records (OEMR) has become possible. It aims to evaluate the condition of both eyes of a patient respectively, and we formulate it as a particular multi-label classification task in this paper. Although there are a few related studies in other diseases, automatic diagnosis of eye diseases exhibits unique characteristics. First, descriptions of both eyes are mixed up in OEMR documents, with both free text and templated asymptomatic descriptions, resulting in sparsity and clutter of information. Second, OEMR documents contain multiple parts of descriptions and have long document lengths. Third, it is critical to provide explainability to the disease diagnosis model. To overcome those challenges, we present an effective automatic eye disease diagnosis framework, NEEDED. In this framework, a preprocessing module is integrated to improve the density and quality of information. Then, we design a hierarchical transformer structure for learning the contextualized representations of each sentence in the OEMR document. For the diagnosis part, we propose an attention-based predictor that enables traceable diagnosis by obtaining disease-specific information. Experiments on the real dataset and comparison with several baseline models show the advantage and explainability of our framework.

RPT: Toward Transferable Model on Heterogeneous Researcher Data via Pre-Training

With the growth of the academic engines, the mining and analysis acquisition of massive researcher data, such as collaborator recommendation and researcher retrieval, has become indispensable. It can improve the quality of services and intelligence of academic engines. Most of the existing studies for researcher data mining focus on a single task for a particular application scenario and learning a task-specific model, which is usually unable to transfer to out-of-scope tasks. The pre-training technology provides a generalized and sharing model to capture valuable information from enormous unlabeled data. The model can accomplish multiple downstream tasks via a few fine-tuning steps. In this paper, we propose a multi-task self-supervised learning-based researcher data pre-training model named RPT. Specifically, we divide the researchers' data into semantic document sets and community graph. We design the hierarchical Transformer and the local community encoder to capture information from the two categories of data, respectively. Then, we propose three self-supervised learning objectives to train the whole model. Finally, we also propose two transfer modes of RPT for fine-tuning in different scenarios. We conduct extensive experiments to evaluate RPT, results on three downstream tasks verify the effectiveness of pre-training for researcher data mining.

Two-dimensional ZIF-L nanosheets as high performance non-enzymatic glucose sensor

An effective biosensor based on two-dimensional (2D) Co-ZIF-L nanosheets for sensitive electrochemical non-enzymatic glucose detection is developed, which exhibits high electrocalalytic activities towards glucose due to the ordered porous structure as well as ultrahigh specific surface area. The fabricated Co-ZIF-L nanosheets electrodes present an outstanding performance with higher sensitivity of 769.5 *10$^{-6}$ A mM$^{-1}$ cm$^{-2}$ and lower detect limit of 90.4 nM, while the constructed 3D ZIF-67 nanoparticles electrodes show a weaker sensitivity of 697.4 *10$^{-6}$ A mM$^{-1}$ cm$^{-2}$ and a limited detection range from 2 *10$^{-6}$ M to 414 *10$^{-6}$ M. Furthermore, the Co-ZIF-L based non-enzymatic glucose biosensors possess an acceptable selectivity, long-term stability as well as reproducibility. This work may offer a new approach to develop 2D ZIF nanosheets as a potential candidate in electrochemical biosensors.

Who Should Review Your Proposal? Interdisciplinary Topic Path Detection for Research Proposals

The peer merit review of research proposals has been the major mechanism to decide grant awards. Nowadays, research proposals have become increasingly interdisciplinary. It has been a longstanding challenge to assign proposals to appropriate reviewers. One of the critical steps in reviewer assignment is to generate accurate interdisciplinary topic labels for proposals. Existing systems mainly collect topic labels manually reported by discipline investigators. However, such human-reported labels can be non-accurate and incomplete. What role can AI play in developing a fair and precise proposal review system? In this evidential study, we collaborate with the National Science Foundation of China to address the task of automated interdisciplinary topic path detection. For this purpose, we develop a deep Hierarchical Interdisciplinary Research Proposal Classification Network (HIRPCN). We first propose a hierarchical transformer to extract the textual semantic information of proposals. We then design an interdisciplinary graph and leverage GNNs to learn representations of each discipline in order to extract interdisciplinary knowledge. After extracting the semantic and interdisciplinary knowledge, we design a level-wise prediction component to fuse the two types of knowledge representations and detect interdisciplinary topic paths for each proposal. We conduct extensive experiments and expert evaluations on three real-world datasets to demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed model.

Facet Dependent Topological Phase Transition in Bi4Br4

The realization of the coexistence of various topologically nontrivial surface states in one material is expected to lay a foundation for new electric applications with selective robust spin current. Here we apply the magnetoconductivity characteristic and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) to visualize the surface-selected electronic features evolution of quasi-one-dimensional material Bi4Br4. The transport measurements indicate the quantum interference correction to conductivity possesses symbolic spin rotational characteristic correlated to the value of Berry phase with the effects of weak localization and weak antilocalization for (001) and (100) surfaces, respectively. The ARPES spectra provide the experimental evidence for quasi-one-dimensional massless Dirac surface state at the side (100) surface and anisotropic massive Dirac surface state at the top (001) surface, respectively, which is highly coincide with the angle-dependent scaling behavior of magnetoconductivity. Our results reveal the facet dependent topological phases in quasi-one-dimensional Bi4Br4, stimulating the further investigations of this dual topology classes and the applications of the feasible technologies of topological spintronics.

LightCAKE: A Lightweight Framework for Context-Aware Knowledge Graph Embedding

Knowledge graph embedding (KGE) models learn to project symbolic entities and relations into a continuous vector space based on the observed triplets. However, existing KGE models cannot make a proper trade-off between the graph context and the model complexity, which makes them still far from satisfactory. In this paper, we propose a lightweight framework named LightCAKE for context-aware KGE. LightCAKE explicitly models the graph context without introducing redundant trainable parameters, and uses an iterative aggregation strategy to integrate the context information into the entity/relation embeddings. As a generic framework, it can be used with many simple KGE models to achieve excellent results. Finally, extensive experiments on public benchmarks demonstrate the efficiency and effectiveness of our framework.

TWIST-GAN: Towards Wavelet Transform and Transferred GAN for Spatio-Temporal Single Image Super Resolution

Single Image Super-resolution (SISR) produces high-resolution images with fine spatial resolutions from aremotely sensed image with low spatial resolution. Recently, deep learning and generative adversarial networks(GANs) have made breakthroughs for the challenging task of single image super-resolution (SISR). However, thegenerated image still suffers from undesirable artifacts such as, the absence of texture-feature representationand high-frequency information. We propose a frequency domain-based spatio-temporal remote sensingsingle image super-resolution technique to reconstruct the HR image combined with generative adversarialnetworks (GANs) on various frequency bands (TWIST-GAN). We have introduced a new method incorporatingWavelet Transform (WT) characteristics and transferred generative adversarial network. The LR image hasbeen split into various frequency bands by using the WT, whereas, the transfer generative adversarial networkpredicts high-frequency components via a proposed architecture. Finally, the inverse transfer of waveletsproduces a reconstructed image with super-resolution. The model is first trained on an external DIV2 Kdataset and validated with the UC Merceed Landsat remote sensing dataset and Set14 with each image sizeof 256x256. Following that, transferred GANs are used to process spatio-temporal remote sensing images inorder to minimize computation cost differences and improve texture information. The findings are comparedqualitatively and qualitatively with the current state-of-art approaches. In addition, we saved about 43% of theGPU memory during training and accelerated the execution of our simplified version by eliminating batchnormalization layers.

Experimental Realization of Two-Dimensional Buckled Lieb lattice

Two-dimensional (2D) materials with a Lieb lattice can host exotic electronic band structures. Such a system does not exist in nature, and it is also difficult to obtain in the laboratory due to its structural instability. Here, we experimentally realized a 2D system composed of a tin overlayer on an aluminum substrate by molecular beam epitaxy. The specific arrangement of Sn atoms on the Al(100) surface, which benefits from favorable interface interactions, forms a stabilized buckled Lieb lattice. Our theoretical calculations indicate a partially broken nodal line loop protected by its mirror reflection symmetry and a topologically nontrivial insulating state with a spin-orbital coupling (SOC) effect in the band structure of this Lieb lattice. The electronic structure of this system has also been experimentally characterized by scanning tunnelling spectroscopy and angle-resolved photoemmision spectroscopy. Our work provides an appealing method for constructing 2D quantum materials based on the Lieb lattice.

Tree Structure-Aware Graph Representation Learning via Integrated Hierarchical Aggregation and Relational Metric Learning

While Graph Neural Network (GNN) has shown superiority in learning node representations of homogeneous graphs, leveraging GNN on heterogeneous graphs remains a challenging problem. The dominating reason is that GNN learns node representations by aggregating neighbors' information regardless of node types. Some work is proposed to alleviate such issue by exploiting relations or meta-path to sample neighbors with distinct categories, then use attention mechanism to learn different importance for different categories. However, one limitation is that the learned representations for different types of nodes should own different feature spaces, while all the above work still project node representations into one feature space. Moreover, after exploring massive heterogeneous graphs, we identify a fact that multiple nodes with the same type always connect to a node with another type, which reveals the many-to-one schema, a.k.a. the hierarchical tree structure. But all the above work cannot preserve such tree structure, since the exact multi-hop path correlation from neighbors to the target node would be erased through aggregation. Therefore, to overcome the limitations of the literature, we propose T-GNN, a tree structure-aware graph neural network model for graph representation learning. Specifically, the proposed T-GNN consists of two modules: (1) the integrated hierarchical aggregation module and (2) the relational metric learning module. The integrated hierarchical aggregation module aims to preserve the tree structure by combining GNN with Gated Recurrent Unit to integrate the hierarchical and sequential neighborhood information on the tree structure to node representations. The relational metric learning module aims to preserve the heterogeneity by embedding each type of nodes into a type-specific space with distinct distribution based on similarity metrics.
