Fueled by applications in sensor networks, these years have witnessed a surge of interest in distributed estimation and filtering. A new approach is hereby proposed for the Distributed Kalman Filter (DKF) by integrating a local covariance computation scheme. Compared to existing well-established DKF methods, the virtue of the present approach lies in accelerating the convergence of the state estimates to those of the Centralized Kalman Filter (CKF). Meanwhile, an algorithm is proposed that allows each node to compute the averaged measurement noise covariance matrix within a minimal discrete-time running steps in a distributed way. Both theoretical analysis and extensive numerical simulations are conducted to show the feasibility and superiority of the proposed method.

Graph Chain-of-Thought (Graph-CoT) enables large language models (LLMs) to perform step-by-step reasoning over graph-structured knowledge, but existing pipelines suffer from low accuracy, excessive token usage, high latency, and low throughput due to single-agent monolithic prompts, repeated context re-encoding, and inefficient serving execution. We present GLM, the first multi-agent Graph-CoT system co-designed with an optimized LLM serving architecture. GLM decomposes reasoning into specialized agents for classification, reasoning, action generation, and graph retrieval, enabling branching and selective context sharing to reduce prompt length and reasoning iterations while preserving reasoning quality, thereby improving accuracy and reducing overall token consumption. To scale inference, we introduce a Graph-CoT-aware LLM inference mechanism with graph-specific KV-cache management, priority-based eviction, and pipelined execution to improve serving efficiency. Experiments demonstrate that GLM improves answer accuracy by up to 38%, reduces token cost by up to 95.7%, lowers inference latency by 90.3%, and achieves up to 15.1x higher throughput compared to state-of-the-art Graph-CoT baselines, enabling efficient adoption for complex real-world reasoning at scale.

Deep multi-view clustering seeks to utilize the abundant information from multiple views to improve clustering performance. However, most of the existing clustering methods often neglect to fully mine multi-view structural information and fail to explore the distribution of multi-view data, limiting clustering performance. To address these limitations, we propose a structure-guided deep multi-view clustering model. Specifically, we introduce a positive sample selection strategy based on neighborhood relationships, coupled with a corresponding loss function. This strategy constructs multi-view nearest neighbor graphs to dynamically redefine positive sample pairs, enabling the mining of local structural information within multi-view data and enhancing the reliability of positive sample selection. Additionally, we introduce a Gaussian distribution model to uncover latent structural information and introduce a loss function to reduce discrepancies between view embeddings. These two strategies explore multi-view structural information and data distribution from different perspectives, enhancing consistency across views and increasing intra-cluster compactness. Experimental evaluations demonstrate the efficacy of our method, showing significant improvements in clustering performance on multiple benchmark datasets compared to state-of-the-art multi-view clustering approaches.
