A key objective in the field of artificial intelligence is to develop cognitive models that can exhibit human-like intellectual capabilities. One promising approach to achieving this is through neural-symbolic systems, which combine the strengths of deep learning and symbolic reasoning. However, current methodologies in this area face limitations in integration, generalization, and interpretability. To address these challenges, we propose a neural-symbolic framework based on statistical relational learning, referred to as NSF-SRL. This framework effectively integrates deep learning models with symbolic reasoning in a mutually beneficial manner.In NSF-SRL, the results of symbolic reasoning are utilized to refine and correct the predictions made by deep learning models, while deep learning models enhance the efficiency of the symbolic reasoning process. Through extensive experiments, we demonstrate that our approach achieves high performance and exhibits effective generalization in supervised learning, weakly supervised and zero-shot learning tasks. Furthermore, we introduce a quantitative strategy to evaluate the interpretability of the model's predictions, visualizing the corresponding logic rules that contribute to these predictions and providing insights into the reasoning process. We believe that this approach sets a new standard for neural-symbolic systems and will drive future research in the field of general artificial intelligence.

Graph learning is a prevalent field that operates on ubiquitous graph data. Effective graph learning methods can extract valuable information from graphs. However, these methods are non-robust and affected by missing attributes in graphs, resulting in sub-optimal outcomes. This has led to the emergence of incomplete graph learning, which aims to process and learn from incomplete graphs to achieve more accurate and representative results. In this paper, we conducted a comprehensive review of the literature on incomplete graph learning. Initially, we categorize incomplete graphs and provide precise definitions of relevant concepts, terminologies, and techniques, thereby establishing a solid understanding for readers. Subsequently, we classify incomplete graph learning methods according to the types of incompleteness: (1) attribute-incomplete graph learning methods, (2) attribute-missing graph learning methods, and (3) hybrid-absent graph learning methods. By systematically classifying and summarizing incomplete graph learning methods, we highlight the commonalities and differences among existing approaches, aiding readers in selecting methods and laying the groundwork for further advancements. In addition, we summarize the datasets, incomplete processing modes, evaluation metrics, and application domains used by the current methods. Lastly, we discuss the current challenges and propose future directions for incomplete graph learning, with the aim of stimulating further innovations in this crucial field. To our knowledge, this is the first review dedicated to incomplete graph learning, aiming to offer valuable insights for researchers in related fields.We developed an online resource to follow relevant research based on this review, available at https://github.com/cherry-a11y/Incomplete-graph-learning.git

Vision-language pretraining models have made significant progress in bridging remote sensing imagery with natural language. However, existing approaches often fail to effectively integrate multi-granular visual and textual information, relying primarily on global image-text alignment. This limitation hinders the model's ability to accurately capture fine-grained details in images, thus restricting its performance in complex, fine-grained tasks. To address this, we propose GeoAlignCLIP, a unified framework that achieves fine-grained alignment in remote sensing tasks by learning multi-granular semantic alignments and incorporating intra-modal consistency, enabling more precise visual-semantic alignment between image regions and text concepts. Additionally, we construct RSFG-100k, a fine-granular remote sensing dataset containing scene descriptions, region-level annotations, and challenging hard-negative samples, providing hierarchical supervision for model training. Extensive experiments conducted on multiple public remote-sensing benchmarks demonstrate that GeoAlignCLIP consistently outperforms existing RS-specific methods across diverse tasks, exhibiting more robust and accurate fine-grained vision-language alignment.

While Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have significantly advanced remote sensing interpretation, enabling them to perform complex, step-by-step reasoning remains highly challenging. Recent efforts to introduce Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning to this domain have shown promise, yet ensuring the visual faithfulness of these intermediate steps remains a critical bottleneck. To address this, we introduce GeoSolver, a novel framework that transitions remote sensing reasoning toward verifiable, process-supervised reinforcement learning. We first construct Geo-PRM-2M, a large-scale, token-level process supervision dataset synthesized via entropy-guided Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) and targeted visual hallucination injection. Building upon this dataset, we train GeoPRM, a token-level process reward model (PRM) that provides granular faithfulness feedback. To effectively leverage these verification signals, we propose Process-Aware Tree-GRPO, a reinforcement learning algorithm that integrates tree-structured exploration with a faithfulness-weighted reward mechanism to precisely assign credit to intermediate steps. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our resulting model, GeoSolver-9B, achieves state-of-the-art performance across diverse remote sensing benchmarks. Crucially, GeoPRM unlocks robust Test-Time Scaling (TTS). Serving as a universal geospatial verifier, it seamlessly scales the performance of GeoSolver-9B and directly enhances general-purpose VLMs, highlighting its remarkable cross-model generalization.

Class-imbalanced graph node classification is a practical yet underexplored research problem. Although recent studies have attempted to address this issue, they typically assume clean and reliable labels when processing class-imbalanced graphs. This assumption often violates the nature of real-world graphs, where labels frequently contain noise. Given this gap, this paper systematically investigates robust node classification for class-imbalanced graphs with noisy labels. We propose GraphALP, a novel Graph Augmentation framework based on Large language models (LLMs) and Pseudo-labeling techniques. Specifically, we design an LLM-based oversampling method to generate synthetic minority nodes, producing label-accurate minority nodes to alleviate class imbalance. Based on the class-balanced graphs, we develop a dynamically weighted pseudo-labeling method to obtain high-confidence pseudo labels to reduce label noise ratio. Additionally, we implement a secondary LLM-guided oversampling mechanism to mitigate potential class distribution skew caused by pseudo labels. Experimental results show that GraphALP achieves superior performance over state-of-the-art methods on class-imbalanced graphs with noisy labels.

Signed network embedding methods aim to learn vector representations of nodes in signed networks. However, existing algorithms only managed to embed networks into low-dimensional Euclidean spaces whereas many intrinsic features of signed networks are reported more suitable for non-Euclidean spaces. For instance, previous works did not consider the hierarchical structures of networks, which is widely witnessed in real-world networks. In this work, we answer an open question that whether the hyperbolic space is a better choice to accommodate signed networks and learn embeddings that can preserve the corresponding special characteristics. We also propose a non-Euclidean signed network embedding method based on structural balance theory and Riemannian optimization, which embeds signed networks into a Poincaré ball in a hyperbolic space. This space enables our approach to capture underlying hierarchy of nodes in signed networks because it can be seen as a continuous tree. We empirically compare our method against six Euclidean-based baselines in three tasks on seven real-world datasets, and the results show the effectiveness of our method.
