Efficient multi-UAV exploration under limited communication is severely bottlenecked by inadequate task representation and allocation. Previous task representations either impose heavy communication requirements for coordination or lack the flexibility to handle complex environments, often leading to inefficient traversal. Furthermore, short-horizon allocation strategies neglect spatiotemporal contiguity, causing non-contiguous assignments and frequent cross-region detours. To address this, we propose C$^2$-Explorer, a decentralized framework that constructs a connectivity graph to decompose disconnected unknown components into independent task units. We then introduce a contiguity-driven allocation formulation with a graph-based neighborhood penalty to discourage non-adjacent assignments, promoting more contiguous task sequences over time. Extensive simulation experiments show that C$^2$-Explorer consistently outperforms state-of-the-art (SOTA) baselines, reducing average exploration time by 43.1\% and path length by 33.3\%. Real-world flights further demonstrate the system's feasibility. The code will be released at https://github.com/Robotics-STAR-Lab/C2-Explorer

Multimodal Emotion Recognition in Conversations (MERC) enhances emotional understanding through the fusion of multimodal signals. However, unpredictable modality absence in real-world scenarios significantly degrades the performance of existing methods. Conventional missing-modality recovery approaches, which depend on training with complete multimodal data, often suffer from semantic distortion under extreme data distributions, such as fixed-modality absence. To address this, we propose the Federated Dialogue-guided and Semantic-Consistent Diffusion (FedDISC) framework, pioneering the integration of federated learning into missing-modality recovery. By federated aggregation of modality-specific diffusion models trained on clients and broadcasting them to clients missing corresponding modalities, FedDISC overcomes single-client reliance on modality completeness. Additionally, the DISC-Diffusion module ensures consistency in context, speaker identity, and semantics between recovered and available modalities, using a Dialogue Graph Network to capture conversational dependencies and a Semantic Conditioning Network to enforce semantic alignment. We further introduce a novel Alternating Frozen Aggregation strategy, which cyclically freezes recovery and classifier modules to facilitate collaborative optimization. Extensive experiments on the IEMOCAP, CMUMOSI, and CMUMOSEI datasets demonstrate that FedDISC achieves superior emotion classification performance across diverse missing modality patterns, outperforming existing approaches.

This work presents a novel hybrid approach that integrates Deep Operator Networks (DeepONet) with the Neural Tangent Kernel (NTK) to solve complex inverse problem. The method effectively addresses tasks such as source localization governed by the Navier-Stokes equations and image reconstruction, overcoming challenges related to nonlinearity, sparsity, and noisy data. By incorporating physics-informed constraints and task-specific regularization into the loss function, the framework ensures solutions that are both physically consistent and accurate. Validation on diverse synthetic and real datasets demonstrates its robustness, scalability, and precision, showcasing its broad potential applications in computational physics and imaging sciences.

This work presents TV-LoRA, a novel method for low-dose sparse-view CT reconstruction that combines a diffusion generative prior (NCSN++ with SDE modeling) and multi-regularization constraints, including anisotropic TV and nuclear norm (LoRA), within an ADMM framework. To address ill-posedness and texture loss under extremely sparse views, TV-LoRA integrates generative and physical constraints, and utilizes a 2D slice-based strategy with FFT acceleration and tensor-parallel optimization for efficient inference. Experiments on AAPM-2016, CTHD, and LIDC datasets with $N_{\mathrm{view}}=8,4,2$ show that TV-LoRA consistently surpasses benchmarks in SSIM, texture recovery, edge clarity, and artifact suppression, demonstrating strong robustness and generalizability. Ablation studies confirm the complementary effects of LoRA regularization and diffusion priors, while the FFT-PCG module provides a speedup. Overall, Diffusion + TV-LoRA achieves high-fidelity, efficient 3D CT reconstruction and broad clinical applicability in low-dose, sparse-sampling scenarios.
