Auditing Training-Free 3D Shape Retrieval with Diffused Geodesic MomentsZhicheng Du, Changyue Liu, Wenji Xi et al.
Reported retrieval scores for training-free shape descriptors conflate local signal design, normalization, aggregation, codebook fitting, and metric choices, making isolated component evaluation difficult. This paper reframes descriptor evaluation as a {\em protocol audit}. We introduce Diffused Geodesic Moments (DGM), a seed-conditioned descriptor that computes sparse implicit heat responses, converts them to distance-like fields, and summarizes each vertex by low-order moments across seeds and scales. DGM is used both as a practical non-spectral baseline and as an instrument for isolating protocol effects. On the registered FAUST benchmark split (FAUST-Reg) and the TOSCA shape collection, aggregation-matched experiments show that an independent Geometric Moment Shape Descriptor baseline built on Heat Kernel Signature features (GMSD-HKS) obtains the highest scores in this implementation ($0.621/0.820$ and $0.865/0.963$ mean average precision (mAP)/top-1), Wave Kernel Signature (WKS) remains a strong classical signal, and DGM is useful mainly when sparse solves, non-spectral deployment, or symmetry-informative seed frames are priorities. The broader finding is methodological: the input field and aggregation protocol can dominate the moment formula. The paper contributes a reproducible protocol-cascade analysis, a cross-shape alignment diagnostic for functional-map compatibility, and concrete recommendations for designing and reporting training-free shape descriptors.

Prime Certificates for Exact Vertex-Coprime Ramsey NumbersZhicheng Du, Wenji Xi, Zhuo Deng et al.
Let $G_n$ be the coprime graph on $\{1,\ldots,n\}$. We prove that the mixed vertex-coloring coprime Ramsey number satisfies \[ \Rcop(k_1,\ldots,k_c)=p_{\sum_{i=1}^c(k_i-1)}, \] where $p_m$ is the $m$-th prime. The proof is elementary: the prime clique $\{1\}\cup\{p\le n:p\text{ prime}\}$ gives the upper bound by pigeonhole, while a prime-bin partition gives the matching lower bound by coloring each composite with a bin containing one of its prime divisors. We reserve $\Rcop$ for this vertex-coloring parameter; the edge-coloring parameter on the same host graph is denoted $\Redge$. The same certificate viewpoint yields three extensions: a support-disjointness generalization, a polynomial-time certificate-extraction primitive, and an exact reduction of the edge-coloring variant to classical Ramsey numbers: $\Redge(k_1,\ldots,k_c)=p_{\Rcl(k_1,\ldots,k_c)-1}$. These two formulas are rank transfers from the same clique-label certificate. We also prove that the balanced two-color diagonal threshold equals the unrestricted threshold $p_{2k-2}$ for all $k\ge2$, via a deterministic prime-bin split requiring only the weak inequality $2p_m<p_{2m}<3p_m$; for fixed $c$, a Hall argument plus a standard Selberg--Delange estimate gives eventual multicolor balanced certificates.

SenseRay-3D: Generalizable and Physics-Informed Framework for End-to-End Indoor Propagation ModelingYu Zheng, Kezhi Wang, Wenji Xi et al.
Modeling indoor radio propagation is crucial for wireless network planning and optimization. However, existing approaches often rely on labor-intensive manual modeling of geometry and material properties, resulting in limited scalability and efficiency. To overcome these challenges, this paper presents SenseRay-3D, a generalizable and physics-informed end-to-end framework that predicts three-dimensional (3D) path-loss heatmaps directly from RGB-D scans, thereby eliminating the need for explicit geometry reconstruction or material annotation. The proposed framework builds a sensing-driven voxelized scene representation that jointly encodes occupancy, electromagnetic material characteristics, and transmitter-receiver geometry, which is processed by a SwinUNETR-based neural network to infer environmental path-loss relative to free-space path-loss. A comprehensive synthetic indoor propagation dataset is further developed to validate the framework and to serve as a standardized benchmark for future research. Experimental results show that SenseRay-3D achieves a mean absolute error of 4.27 dB on unseen environments and supports real-time inference at 217 ms per sample, demonstrating its scalability, efficiency, and physical consistency. SenseRay-3D paves a new path for sense-driven, generalizable, and physics-consistent modeling of indoor propagation, marking a major leap beyond our pioneering EM DeepRay framework.
