Large scale data storage is susceptible to failure. As disks are damaged and replaced, traditional machine learning models, which rely on historical data to make predictions, struggle to accurately predict disk failures. This paper presents a novel method for predicting disk failures by leveraging multi-layer domain adaptive learning techniques. First, disk data with numerous faults is selected as the source domain, and disk data with fewer faults is selected as the target domain. A training of the feature extraction network is performed with the selected origin and destination domains. The contrast between the two domains facilitates the transfer of diagnostic knowledge from the domain of source and target. According to the experimental findings, it has been demonstrated that the proposed technique can generate a reliable prediction model and improve the ability to predict failures on disk data with few failure samples.

To address the problem of insufficient failure data generated by disks and the imbalance between the number of normal and failure data. The existing Conditional Tabular Generative Adversarial Networks (CTGAN) deep learning methods have been proven to be effective in solving imbalance disk failure data. But CTGAN cannot learn the internal information of disk failure data very well. In this paper, a fault diagnosis method based on improved CTGAN, a classifier for specific category discrimination is added and a discriminator generate adversarial network based on residual network is proposed. We named it Residual Conditional Tabular Generative Adversarial Networks (RCTGAN). Firstly, to enhance the stability of system a residual network is utilized. RCTGAN uses a small amount of real failure data to synthesize fake fault data; Then, the synthesized data is mixed with the real data to balance the amount of normal and failure data; Finally, four classifier (multilayer perceptron, support vector machine, decision tree, random forest) models are trained using the balanced data set, and the performance of the models is evaluated using G-mean. The experimental results show that the data synthesized by the RCTGAN can further improve the fault diagnosis accuracy of the classifier.

Real-world user-generated videos, especially on platforms like TikTok, often feature rich and intertwined audio visual content. However, existing video captioning benchmarks and models remain predominantly visual centric, overlooking the crucial role of audio in conveying scene dynamics, speaker intent, and narrative context. This lack of omni datasets and lightweight, capable models hampers progress in fine grained, multimodal video understanding. To address these challenges, we introduce UGC-VideoCap, a new benchmark and model framework specifically designed for detailed omnimodal captioning of short form user-generated videos. Unlike prior datasets, UGC-VideoCap emphasizes balanced integration of audio and visual modalities, featuring 1000 TikTok videos annotated through a structured three stage human-in-the-loop pipeline covering audio only, visual only, and joint audio visual semantics. The benchmark also includes 4000 carefully crafted QA pairs probing both unimodal and cross modal understanding. Alongside the dataset, we propose UGC-VideoCaptioner(3B), a 3B parameter captioning model distilled from Gemini 2.5 Flash. Using a novel two-stage training strategy supervised fine tuning followed by Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO), our approach enables efficient adaptation from limited data while maintaining competitive performance. Together, our benchmark and model offer a high-quality foundation and a data-efficient solution for advancing omnimodal video captioning in unconstrained real-world UGC settings.
