Accurate phase equilibria are foundational to alloy design because they encode the underlying thermodynamics governing stability, transformations, and processing windows. However, while the CALculation of Phase Diagrams (CALPHAD) provides a rigorous thermodynamic framework, exploring multicomponent composition-temperature space remains computationally expensive and is typically limited to sparse section. To enable rapid phase mapping and alloy screening, we propose a physics-informed graph attention network (GAT) that learns element-aware representations and couples them with thermodynamic constraints for multi-label phase-set prediction in the Ag-Bi-Cu-Sn alloy system. Using about 25,000 equilibrium states generated with pycalphad, each composition-temperature point is represented as a four-node element graph with atomic fractions and elemental descriptors as node features. The model combines graph attention, global pooling, and a multilayer perceptron to predict nine relevant phases. To improve physical consistency, we incorporate thermodynamic constraints, applied as training penalties or as an inference-time projection. Across six binary and three ternary subsystems, the baseline model achieves a macro-F1 score of 0.951 and 93.98% exact-set match, while physics-informed decoding improves robustness and raises exact-set accuracy to about 96% on dense in-domain grids. The surrogate also generalizes to an unseen ternary section with 99.32% exact-set accuracy and to a quaternary section at 700 °C with 91.78% accuracy. These results demonstrate that attention-based graph learning coupled with thermodynamic constraint enforcement provides an effective and physically consistent surrogate for high-resolution phase mapping and extrapolative alloy screening.

Unsupervised machine translation, which utilizes unpaired monolingual corpora as training data, has achieved comparable performance against supervised machine translation. However, it still suffers from data-scarce domains. To address this issue, this paper presents a novel meta-learning algorithm for unsupervised neural machine translation (UNMT) that trains the model to adapt to another domain by utilizing only a small amount of training data. We assume that domain-general knowledge is a significant factor in handling data-scarce domains. Hence, we extend the meta-learning algorithm, which utilizes knowledge learned from high-resource domains, to boost the performance of low-resource UNMT. Our model surpasses a transfer learning-based approach by up to 2-4 BLEU scores. Extensive experimental results show that our proposed algorithm is pertinent for fast adaptation and consistently outperforms other baseline models.

With the tremendous growth in the number of scientific papers being published, searching for references while writing a scientific paper is a time-consuming process. A technique that could add a reference citation at the appropriate place in a sentence will be beneficial. In this perspective, context-aware citation recommendation has been researched upon for around two decades. Many researchers have utilized the text data called the context sentence, which surrounds the citation tag, and the metadata of the target paper to find the appropriate cited research. However, the lack of well-organized benchmarking datasets and no model that can attain high performance has made the research difficult. In this paper, we propose a deep learning based model and well-organized dataset for context-aware paper citation recommendation. Our model comprises a document encoder and a context encoder, which uses Graph Convolutional Networks (GCN) layer and Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT), which is a pre-trained model of textual data. By modifying the related PeerRead dataset, we propose a new dataset called FullTextPeerRead containing context sentences to cited references and paper metadata. To the best of our knowledge, This dataset is the first well-organized dataset for context-aware paper recommendation. The results indicate that the proposed model with the proposed datasets can attain state-of-the-art performance and achieve a more than 28% improvement in mean average precision (MAP) and recall@k.

This paper presents an empirical exploration of the use of capsule networks for text classification. While it has been shown that capsule networks are effective for image classification, their validity in the domain of text has not been explored. In this paper, we show that capsule networks indeed have the potential for text classification and that they have several advantages over convolutional neural networks. We further suggest a simple routing method that effectively reduces the computational complexity of dynamic routing. We utilized seven benchmark datasets to demonstrate that capsule networks, along with the proposed routing method provide comparable results.
