FeedbackTrack: Visual-Cortex-Inspired Cross-Frame Feedback for Transformer Tracking

Visual object tracking requires effective temporal integration, yet most Transformer trackers still rely on predominantly feed-forward feature extraction. Existing temporal mechanisms typically update templates, prompts, queries, or prediction states, while intermediate representations are rarely reused to modulate corresponding processing stages. We propose \textbf{FeedbackTrack}, a visual-cortex-inspired framework that introduces sparse, group-level layer-aligned cross-frame feedback into pretrained Transformer trackers. Previous-frame intermediate states are detached, cached, and returned to corresponding Transformer groups in the current frame through two lightweight pathways: Query Feedback for token-level query modulation and Gate Feedback for context-dependent feature modulation. FeedbackTrack preserves the original tracking pipeline with only a fixed-size one-frame cache. Across SPMTrack and ARTrackV2, FeedbackTrack consistently improves five backbone configurations on LaSOT and GOT-10k, achieving 83.4 AO and 79.1 AUC with SPMTrack-G while adding less than 1\% parameters. Controlled comparisons show that cross-frame feedback outperforms same-frame modulation by 1.8--3.2 AO points, demonstrating that the gains mainly come from recurrent historical information. Further analysis reveals a non-uniform depth-dependent organization of learned feedback strengths, highlighting the effectiveness of recurrent feedback for Transformer tracking.

Recall Before You Rank: Similarity-Guided Top-$K$ Reuse for Efficient Long-Context Attention

Top-$K$ sparse attention reduces the cost of Softmax and value aggregation by attending to only a small subset of key--value (KV) entries. However, identifying this subset still requires scoring the current query against the full KV cache and performing global Top-$K$ selection, leaving selector cost linear in context length and limiting the practical efficiency of sparse attention for long-context decoding. In this paper, we introduce ReTopK, a training-free method that accelerates dynamic Top-$K$ attention by reusing historical retrieval decisions. ReTopK builds on the observation that similar queries often attend to overlapping supports and that partially overlapping supports can still preserve most of the Exact Top-$K$ attention mass. For each attention head, it maintains a bounded cache of historical query--support pairs, retrieves the most similar cached queries for each new query, unions their stored supports with a recent window, and reranks only the resulting compact candidate set using exact current-query scores. A similarity-based fallback invokes full-history Exact Top-$K$ when reuse is unreliable, while periodic exact refreshes limit cache drift. ReTopK retains the complete KV cache and reuses only selected indices, rather than historical scores, attention weights, or outputs. Across 16K--128K contexts, ReTopK achieves the lowest PG19 perplexity and the highest NIAH and LongBench scores among the evaluated approximate methods. At 128K with $K=512$, ReTopK incurs only a 0.50\% perplexity increase over Exact Top-$K$ while accelerating attention computation by $3.07\times$.

Beyond Paper-to-Paper: Structured Profiling and Rubric Scoring for Paper-Reviewer Matching

As conference submission volumes continue to grow, accurately recommending suitable reviewers has become a challenge. Most existing methods follow a ``Paper-to-Paper'' matching paradigm, implicitly representing a reviewer by their publication history. However, effective reviewer matching requires capturing multi-dimensional expertise, and textual similarity to past papers alone is often insufficient. To address this gap, we propose P2R, a training-free framework that shifts from implicit paper-to-paper matching to explicit profile-based matching. P2R uses general-purpose LLMs to construct structured profiles for both submissions and reviewers, disentangling them into Topics, Methodologies, and Applications. Building on these profiles, P2R adopts a coarse-to-fine pipeline to balance efficiency and depth. It first performs hybrid retrieval that combines semantic and aspect-level signals to form a high-recall candidate pool, and then applies an LLM-based committee to evaluate candidates under strict rubrics, integrating both multi-dimensional expert views and a holistic Area Chair perspective. Experiments on NeurIPS, SIGIR, and SciRepEval show that P2R consistently outperforms state-of-the-art baselines. Ablation studies further verify the necessity of each component. Overall, P2R highlights the value of explicit, structured expertise modeling and offers practical guidance for applying LLMs to reviewer matching.

Graph-GRPO: Stabilizing Multi-Agent Topology Learning via Group Relative Policy Optimization

Optimizing communication topology is fundamental to the efficiency and effectiveness of Large Language Model (LLM)-based Multi-Agent Systems (MAS). While recent approaches utilize reinforcement learning to dynamically construct task-specific graphs, they typically rely on single-sample policy gradients with absolute rewards (e.g., binary correctness). This paradigm suffers from severe gradient variance and the credit assignment problem: simple queries yield non-informative positive rewards for suboptimal structures, while difficult queries often result in failures that provide no learning signal. To address these challenges, we propose Graph-GRPO, a novel topology optimization framework that integrates Group Relative Policy Optimization. Instead of evaluating a single topology in isolation, Graph-GRPO samples a group of diverse communication graphs for each query and computes the advantage of specific edges based on their relative performance within the group. By normalizing rewards across the sampled group, our method effectively mitigates the noise derived from task difficulty variance and enables fine-grained credit assignment. Extensive experiments on reasoning and code generation benchmarks demonstrate that Graph-GRPO significantly outperforms state-of-the-art baselines, achieving superior training stability and identifying critical communication pathways previously obscured by reward noise.

MOVA: Towards Scalable and Synchronized Video-Audio Generation

Audio is indispensable for real-world video, yet generation models have largely overlooked audio components. Current approaches to producing audio-visual content often rely on cascaded pipelines, which increase cost, accumulate errors, and degrade overall quality. While systems such as Veo 3 and Sora 2 emphasize the value of simultaneous generation, joint multimodal modeling introduces unique challenges in architecture, data, and training. Moreover, the closed-source nature of existing systems limits progress in the field. In this work, we introduce MOVA (MOSS Video and Audio), an open-source model capable of generating high-quality, synchronized audio-visual content, including realistic lip-synced speech, environment-aware sound effects, and content-aligned music. MOVA employs a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture, with a total of 32B parameters, of which 18B are active during inference. It supports IT2VA (Image-Text to Video-Audio) generation task. By releasing the model weights and code, we aim to advance research and foster a vibrant community of creators. The released codebase features comprehensive support for efficient inference, LoRA fine-tuning, and prompt enhancement.

Distilling Closed-Source LLM's Knowledge for Locally Stable and Economic Biomedical Entity Linking

Biomedical entity linking aims to map nonstandard entities to standard entities in a knowledge base. Traditional supervised methods perform well but require extensive annotated data to transfer, limiting their usage in low-resource scenarios. Large language models (LLMs), especially closed-source LLMs, can address these but risk stability issues and high economic costs: using these models is restricted by commercial companies and brings significant economic costs when dealing with large amounts of data. To address this, we propose ``RPDR'', a framework combining closed-source LLMs and open-source LLMs for re-ranking candidates retrieved by a retriever fine-tuned with a small amount of data. By prompting a closed-source LLM to generate training data from unannotated data and fine-tuning an open-source LLM for re-ranking, we effectively distill the knowledge to the open-source LLM that can be deployed locally, thus avoiding the stability issues and the problem of high economic costs. We evaluate RPDR on two datasets, including one real-world dataset and one publicly available dataset involving two languages: Chinese and English. RPDR achieves 0.019 Acc@1 improvement and 0.036 Acc@1 improvement on the Aier dataset and the Ask A Patient dataset when the amount of training data is not enough. The results demonstrate the superiority and generalizability of the proposed framework.

Disentangled Multi-span Evolutionary Network against Temporal Knowledge Graph Reasoning

Temporal Knowledge Graphs (TKGs), as an extension of static Knowledge Graphs (KGs), incorporate the temporal feature to express the transience of knowledge by describing when facts occur. TKG extrapolation aims to infer possible future facts based on known history, which has garnered significant attention in recent years. Some existing methods treat TKG as a sequence of independent subgraphs to model temporal evolution patterns, demonstrating impressive reasoning performance. However, they still have limitations: 1) In modeling subgraph semantic evolution, they usually neglect the internal structural interactions between subgraphs, which are actually crucial for encoding TKGs. 2) They overlook the potential smooth features that do not lead to semantic changes, which should be distinguished from the semantic evolution process. Therefore, we propose a novel Disentangled Multi-span Evolutionary Network (DiMNet) for TKG reasoning. Specifically, we design a multi-span evolution strategy that captures local neighbor features while perceiving historical neighbor semantic information, thus enabling internal interactions between subgraphs during the evolution process. To maximize the capture of semantic change patterns, we design a disentangle component that adaptively separates nodes' active and stable features, used to dynamically control the influence of historical semantics on future evolution. Extensive experiments conducted on four real-world TKG datasets show that DiMNet demonstrates substantial performance in TKG reasoning, and outperforms the state-of-the-art up to 22.7% in MRR.

scSiameseClu: A Siamese Clustering Framework for Interpreting single-cell RNA Sequencing Data

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) reveals cell heterogeneity, with cell clustering playing a key role in identifying cell types and marker genes. Recent advances, especially graph neural networks (GNNs)-based methods, have significantly improved clustering performance. However, the analysis of scRNA-seq data remains challenging due to noise, sparsity, and high dimensionality. Compounding these challenges, GNNs often suffer from over-smoothing, limiting their ability to capture complex biological information. In response, we propose scSiameseClu, a novel Siamese Clustering framework for interpreting single-cell RNA-seq data, comprising of 3 key steps: (1) Dual Augmentation Module, which applies biologically informed perturbations to the gene expression matrix and cell graph relationships to enhance representation robustness; (2) Siamese Fusion Module, which combines cross-correlation refinement and adaptive information fusion to capture complex cellular relationships while mitigating over-smoothing; and (3) Optimal Transport Clustering, which utilizes Sinkhorn distance to efficiently align cluster assignments with predefined proportions while maintaining balance. Comprehensive evaluations on seven real-world datasets demonstrate that~\methodname~outperforms state-of-the-art methods in single-cell clustering, cell type annotation, and cell type classification, providing a powerful tool for scRNA-seq data interpretation.

Rethinking Graph Contrastive Learning through Relative Similarity Preservation

Graph contrastive learning (GCL) has achieved remarkable success by following the computer vision paradigm of preserving absolute similarity between augmented views. However, this approach faces fundamental challenges in graphs due to their discrete, non-Euclidean nature -- view generation often breaks semantic validity and similarity verification becomes unreliable. Through analyzing 11 real-world graphs, we discover a universal pattern transcending the homophily-heterophily dichotomy: label consistency systematically diminishes as structural distance increases, manifesting as smooth decay in homophily graphs and oscillatory decay in heterophily graphs. We establish theoretical guarantees for this pattern through random walk theory, proving label distribution convergence and characterizing the mechanisms behind different decay behaviors. This discovery reveals that graphs naturally encode relative similarity patterns, where structurally closer nodes exhibit collectively stronger semantic relationships. Leveraging this insight, we propose RELGCL, a novel GCL framework with complementary pairwise and listwise implementations that preserve these inherent patterns through collective similarity objectives. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method consistently outperforms 20 existing approaches across both homophily and heterophily graphs, validating the effectiveness of leveraging natural relative similarity over artificial absolute similarity.

Collaborative Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning for Automated Feature Transformation with Graph-Driven Path Optimization

Feature transformation methods aim to find an optimal mathematical feature-feature crossing process that generates high-value features and improves the performance of downstream machine learning tasks. Existing frameworks, though designed to mitigate manual costs, often treat feature transformations as isolated operations, ignoring dynamic dependencies between transformation steps. To address the limitations, we propose TCTO, a collaborative multi-agent reinforcement learning framework that automates feature engineering through graph-driven path optimization. The framework's core innovation lies in an evolving interaction graph that models features as nodes and transformations as edges. Through graph pruning and backtracking, it dynamically eliminates low-impact edges, reduces redundant operations, and enhances exploration stability. This graph also provides full traceability to empower TCTO to reuse high-utility subgraphs from historical transformations. To demonstrate the efficacy and adaptability of our approach, we conduct comprehensive experiments and case studies, which show superior performance across a range of datasets.
