Cardiac discharge phenotyping informs post-discharge treatment and follow-up, but real-world records are often incomplete and class-imbalanced, increasing the risk of missed high-risk phenotypes. We propose CW-B, a clinical risk-aligned class-weighted XGBoost pipeline for five-class cardiac discharge phenotyping under real-world class imbalance and missingness. CW-B combines fold-specific class-balanced instance weighting, missingness-indicator augmentation, and classwise error auditing to improve recognition of clinically prioritized phenotypes while preserving interpretable and auditable decision logic. In five-fold stratified cross-validation, CW-B achieves the best Accuracy, Macro-F1, Balanced Accuracy, and Prioritized F1 among tree-based, ensemble, and neural baselines. Overall, CW-B provides a practical and deployment-oriented approach for more reliable cardiac discharge phenotyping in real-world clinical settings.

Modern vision-language models (VLMs) for driving assistants typically treat vehicle dynamics as a black box, resulting in decisions that lack awareness of the vehicle's real-time electro-mechanical state. To bridge this gap, we introduce the Electro-Visual-Language Assistant (EVLA) -- a novel framework that combines multi-modal scene understanding with real-time perception of the electrified powertrain state (e.g., motor torque, battery SOC). Our approach features two key innovations: first, a Unified Co-State Encoder (UCSE) that fuses visual, textual, and vehicle-state inputs into a shared latent representation, augmented with an Energy-Efficiency Field to model spatial energy costs; and second, an Electro-aware Structured Reasoning Chain (ESRC), which replaces external chain-of-thought prompting with an internal, deterministic reasoning process grounded in physical constraints and optimization objectives. Trained end-to-end with a physics-guided joint loss, EVLA learns to generate context-aware and energy-optimal driving decisions. Extensive evaluations on a driving QA benchmark demonstrate that EVLA substantially outperforms strong fine-tuned VLM baselines, improving the final score by +0.0871 and accuracy by +5.6\%. Ablation studies validate the necessity of each component, and efficiency analyses show that EVLA achieves 36\% faster inference than multi-stage pipelines. This work underscores that integrating vehicle-state awareness and structured physical reasoning is crucial for developing next-generation, physically-grounded driving assistants.
