Accurate modeling of the divertor temperature field is essential for preventing material melting and damage and for extending the service life of fusion devices. However, conventional numerical methods, such as the Finite Element Method (FEM), are computationally expensive and therefore unsuitable for real-time applications. Therefore, a fast and generalizable method is required for real-time reconstruction of the divertor temperature field and subsequent real-time control. To address the above issue, we propose a Physics-aware Neural Operator Transformer (PNOT) to characterize the spatiotemporal evolution of the divertor temperature field. It models boundary heat-flux relations as a structured graph and employs graph attention to explicitly capture spatial physical dependencies. Inspired by physics-aware attention, we further develop a physics-aware neural operator module to aggregate query points with similar physical conditions via slicing and model heat diffusion, while a gradient-constrained Sobolev regularization loss enforces consistency between function values and their derivatives. Experimental results show that these physical constraints improve prediction accuracy while preserving physical consistency.

RGB-Event tracking improves localization robustness by fusing RGB appearance textures and dense temporal motion cues from event sensors. While this multi-modal scheme broadens tracking applicability, real-world scenes suffer diverse structured signal degradations that hinder traditional multi-modal fusion. In harsh environments, either modality can lose reliability drastically, and targets frequently appear incomplete due to occlusion, edge truncation and foreground clutter.To tackle the above challenges, we present a hierarchical perturbation and retrieval framework tailored for RGB-Event tracking with robustness against partial target missing and modal degradation, termed APRTrack. To mimic real-world signal corruption, APRTrack constructs structured degradation via two adversarial perturbation branches at the modality and spatial levels, which separately simulate full-modal failure and localized target region absence. A hierarchical routing mechanism is designed to disentangle the training pipelines of the two perturbation types, effectively eliminating feature collapse induced by superimposed degradation constraints. Furthermore, we devise Footprint-guided Channel-calibrated Hopfield Retrieval (FCHR) for reliable historical information compensation. This module evaluates retrieval confidence based on association footprints between queries and memory banks, and calibrates the retrieval metric space prior to Hopfield matching, realizing controllable historical feature compensation bounded to target regions. Extensive experiments on FE108, COESOT, VisEvent, and FELT datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed strategies for the RGB-Event visual object tracking.

Pedestrian Attribute Recognition is a foundational computer vision task that provides essential support for downstream applications, including person retrieval in video surveillance and intelligent retail analytics. However, existing research is frequently constrained by the ``one-model-per-dataset" paradigm and struggles to handle significant discrepancies across domains in terms of modalities, attribute definitions, and environmental scenarios. To address these challenges, we propose UniPAR, a unified Transformer-based framework for PAR. By incorporating a unified data scheduling strategy and a dynamic classification head, UniPAR enables a single model to simultaneously process diverse datasets from heterogeneous modalities, including RGB images, video sequences, and event streams. We also introduce an innovative phased fusion encoder that explicitly aligns visual features with textual attribute queries through a late deep fusion strategy. Experimental results on the widely used benchmark datasets, including MSP60K, DukeMTMC, and EventPAR, demonstrate that UniPAR achieves performance comparable to specialized SOTA methods. Furthermore, multi-dataset joint training significantly enhances the model's cross-domain generalization and recognition robustness in extreme environments characterized by low light and motion blur.
