Cooperative ISAC for LAE: Joint Trajectory Planning, Power allocation, and Dynamic Time DivisionFangzhi Li, Zhichu Ren, Cunhua Pan et al.
To enhance the performance of aerial-ground networks, this paper proposes an integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) framework for multi-UAV systems. In our model, ground base stations (BSs) cooperatively serve multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), employing a dynamic time-division strategy where beam scanning for sensing precedes data communication in each time slot. To maximize the sum communication rate while satisfying a mission-level cumulative radar mutual information (MI) requirement, we jointly optimize the UAV trajectories, communication and sensing power allocation, and the time-division ratio. The resulting highly coupled non-convex optimization problem is efficiently solved using an alternating optimization (AO) and successive convex approximation (SCA) framework, which yields a non-decreasing objective sequence and convergence to a finite objective value under the adopted surrogate-based iterative procedure. Extensive simulation results demonstrate that our proposed joint design significantly outperforms benchmark schemes with static trajectories, partially optimized resources, or non-cooperative single-BS transmission. Furthermore, a comprehensive sensitivity analysis reveals the distinct mechanisms by which sensing thresholds and the number of UAVs influence resource allocation and spatial organization, highlighting the critical importance of dynamic, multi-dimensional resource management for effectively navigating the sensing-communication trade-off in low-altitude economies.

Human-in-the-Loop Multi-Agent Ventilator Decision Support with Contextual Bandit Preference LearningSijia Li, Xiaoyu Tan, Qixing Wang et al.
Ventilator decision support requires sequential decisions that track evolving physiology and disease trajectories while respecting safety boundaries and clinician specific tuning styles. Rule based approaches rarely generalize personalization, and end to end reinforcement learning or single large language model systems remain difficult to control and audit. We propose the Ventilator Decision Support System (VDSS), a human in the loop multi agent framework that coordinates modular decision components through contract driven structured interfaces and produces traceable evidence for review. VDSS performs online preference adaptation with a contextual bandit, updating clinician specific preferences from the final accepted decision at each adjustment cycle and using them to guide subsequent recommendations. Structured rejection feedback triggers targeted replanning to reduce unproductive iterations and improve interaction stability. Retrospective ICU trajectory replay with expert review indicates higher recommendation acceptability and fewer interaction rounds to reach an acceptable plan, supporting clinically deployable human AI collaboration.

Augmenting Channel Simulator and Semi- Supervised Learning for Efficient Indoor PositioningYupeng Li, Xinyu Ning, Shijian Gao et al.
This work aims to tackle the labor-intensive and resource-consuming task of indoor positioning by proposing an efficient approach. The proposed approach involves the introduction of a semi-supervised learning (SSL) with a biased teacher (SSLB) algorithm, which effectively utilizes both labeled and unlabeled channel data. To reduce measurement expenses, unlabeled data is generated using an updated channel simulator (UCHS), and then weighted by adaptive confidence values to simplify the tuning of hyperparameters. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed strategy achieves superior performance while minimizing measurement overhead and training expense compared to existing benchmarks, offering a valuable and practical solution for indoor positioning.

A dataset of primary nasopharyngeal carcinoma MRI with multi-modalities segmentationYin Li, Qi Chen, Kai Wang et al.
Multi-modality magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) data facilitate the early diagnosis, tumor segmentation, and disease staging in the management of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). The lack of publicly available, comprehensive datasets limits advancements in diagnosis, treatment planning, and the development of machine learning algorithms for NPC. Addressing this critical need, we introduce the first comprehensive NPC MRI dataset, encompassing MR axial imaging of 277 primary NPC patients. This dataset includes T1-weighted, T2-weighted, and contrast-enhanced T1-weighted sequences, totaling 831 scans. In addition to the corresponding clinical data, manually annotated and labeled segmentations by experienced radiologists offer high-quality data resources from untreated primary NPC.
