With the rapid development of mobile networks, the people's social contacts have been considerably facilitated. However, the rise of mobile social network fraud upon those networks, has caused a great deal of distress, in case of depleting personal and social wealth, then potentially doing significant economic harm. To detect fraudulent users, call detail record (CDR) data, which portrays the social behavior of users in mobile networks, has been widely utilized. But the imbalance problem in the aforementioned data, which could severely hinder the effectiveness of fraud detectors based on graph neural networks(GNN), has hardly been addressed in previous work. In this paper, we are going to present a novel Cost-Sensitive Graph Neural Network (CSGNN) by creatively combining cost-sensitive learning and graph neural networks. We conduct extensive experiments on two open-source realworld mobile network fraud datasets. The results show that CSGNN can effectively solve the graph imbalance problem and then achieve better detection performance than the state-of-the-art algorithms. We believe that our research can be applied to solve the graph imbalance problems in other fields. The CSGNN code and datasets are publicly available at https://github.com/xxhu94/CSGNN.

Along with the rapid evolution of mobile communication technologies, such as 5G, there has been a drastically increase in telecom fraud, which significantly dissipates individual fortune and social wealth. In recent years, graph mining techniques are gradually becoming a mainstream solution for detecting telecom fraud. However, the graph imbalance problem, caused by the Pareto principle, brings severe challenges to graph data mining. This is a new and challenging problem, but little previous work has been noticed. In this paper, we propose a Graph ATtention network with COst-sensitive BOosting (GAT-COBO) for the graph imbalance problem. First, we design a GAT-based base classifier to learn the embeddings of all nodes in the graph. Then, we feed the embeddings into a well-designed cost-sensitive learner for imbalanced learning. Next, we update the weights according to the misclassification cost to make the model focus more on the minority class. Finally, we sum the node embeddings obtained by multiple cost-sensitive learners to obtain a comprehensive node representation, which is used for the downstream anomaly detection task. Extensive experiments on two real-world telecom fraud detection datasets demonstrate that our proposed method is effective for the graph imbalance problem, outperforming the state-of-the-art GNNs and GNN-based fraud detectors. In addition, our model is also helpful for solving the widespread over-smoothing problem in GNNs. The GAT-COBO code and datasets are available at https://github.com/xxhu94/GAT-COBO.

Single-edit updates in large language models can trigger ripple effects across local knowledge neighborhoods: desirable propagation to related facts and unintended perturbation of preserved ones. Existing methods address these two effects separately, without explicitly modeling their coupling. We challenge this separation through an analysis of ripple responses across typical baselines, identifying two coupled design pressures: editable-side coordination and preserved-side leakage. We propose Joint Neighborhood Optimization (JNO), a new knowledge-editing framework to formalize and jointly address both pressures at the target-planning stage. JNO instantiates this principle through Pressure-Aware Coordination (PAC), which jointly optimizes neighborhood target representations under coupled constraints, and a semantic pre-execution gate that rejects high-risk target plans before parameter execution. Experiments on RippleEdits show JNO improves propagation and preservation metrics by at least 7.0% while preserving cross-backbone editing stability.

Knowledge editing (KE) aims to precisely rectify specific knowledge in Large Language Models (LLMs) without disrupting general capabilities. State-of-the-art methods suffer from an open-loop control mismatch. We identify a critical "Semantic-Execution Disconnect": the semantic target is derived independently without feedback from the downstream's feasible region. This misalignment often causes valid semantic targets to fall within the prohibited space, resulting in gradient truncation and editing failure. To bridge this gap, we propose MetaKE (Meta-learning Aligned Knowledge Editing), a new framework that reframes KE as a bi-level optimization problem. Departing from static calculation, MetaKE treats the edit target as a learnable meta-parameter: the upper-level optimizer seeks a feasible target to maximize post-edit performance, while the lower-level solver executes the editing. To address the challenge of differentiating through complex solvers, we derive a Structural Gradient Proxy, which explicitly backpropagates editability constraints to the target learning phase. Theoretical analysis demonstrates that MetaKE automatically aligns the edit direction with the model's feasible manifold. Extensive experiments confirm that MetaKE significantly outperforms strong baselines, offering a new perspective on knowledge editing.

Spatial phase unwrapping is a key technique for extracting phase information to obtain 3D morphology and other features. Modern industrial measurement scenarios demand high precision, large image sizes, and high speed. However, conventional methods struggle with noise resistance and processing speed. Current deep learning methods are limited by the receptive field size and sparse semantic information, making them ineffective for large size images. To address this issue, we propose a mutual self-distillation (MSD) mechanism and adaptive boosting ensemble segmenters to construct a universal multi-size phase unwrapping network (UMSPU). MSD performs hierarchical attention refinement and achieves cross-layer collaborative learning through bidirectional distillation, ensuring fine-grained semantic representation across image sizes. The adaptive boosting ensemble segmenters combine weak segmenters with different receptive fields into a strong one, ensuring stable segmentation across spatial frequencies. Experimental results show that UMSPU overcomes image size limitations, achieving high precision across image sizes ranging from 256*256 to 2048*2048 (an 8 times increase). It also outperforms existing methods in speed, robustness, and generalization. Its practicality is further validated in structured light imaging and InSAR. We believe that UMSPU offers a universal solution for phase unwrapping, with broad potential for industrial applications.

The development of graph neural networks (GCN) makes it possible to learn structural features from evolving complex networks. Even though a wide range of realistic networks are directed ones, few existing works investigated the properties of directed and temporal networks. In this paper, we address the problem of temporal link prediction in directed networks and propose a deep learning model based on GCN and self-attention mechanism, namely TSAM. The proposed model adopts an autoencoder architecture, which utilizes graph attentional layers to capture the structural feature of neighborhood nodes, as well as a set of graph convolutional layers to capture motif features. A graph recurrent unit layer with self-attention is utilized to learn temporal variations in the snapshot sequence. We run comparative experiments on four realistic networks to validate the effectiveness of TSAM. Experimental results show that TSAM outperforms most benchmarks under two evaluation metrics.
