Accurate prediction of lithium-ion battery remaining useful life (RUL) is essential for reliable health monitoring and data-driven analysis of battery degradation. However, the robustness and generalization capabilities of existing RUL prediction models are significantly challenged by complex operating conditions and limited data availability. To address these limitations, this study proposes a hybrid deep learning model, CDFormer, which integrates convolutional neural networks, deep residual shrinkage networks, and Transformer encoders extract multiscale temporal features from battery measurement signals, including voltage, current, and capacity. This architecture enables the joint modeling of local and global degradation dynamics, effectively improving the accuracy of RUL prediction.To enhance predictive reliability, a composite temporal data augmentation strategy is proposed, incorporating Gaussian noise, time warping, and time resampling, explicitly accounting for measurement noise and variability. CDFormer is evaluated on two real-world datasets, with experimental results demonstrating its consistent superiority over conventional recurrent neural network-based and Transformer-based baselines across key metrics. By improving the reliability and predictive performance of RUL prediction from measurement data, CDFormer provides accurate and reliable forecasts, supporting effective battery health monitoring and data-driven maintenance strategies.

Generalized Category Discovery (GCD) aims to classify old categories and discover new ones from unlabeled data. Recent multi-modal approaches introduce retrieved or synthesized texts into a dual-branch architecture to provide semantic cues complementary to visual features. However, the cross-modal synergy in existing dual-branch methods remains coarse and incomplete: the two modalities are encoded independently with the bias and noise in the derived text left unaddressed during encoding, and existing mutual learning strategies operate only on global class-level anchors, lacking fine-grained relational supervision. To address these limitations, we propose the Synergistic Dual-Branch Adaptation (SDBA) framework, which serves as a plug-and-play enhancement compatible with existing dual-branch methods such as GET and TextGCD. SDBA comprises two components: the cross-modal synergistic adapter inserts lightweight adapters into both branches and further injects visual information into the text adapter at each encoder layer to enhance text feature learning during encoding; the neighborhood mutual learning module enforces consistent local neighborhood distributions between the two branches via bidirectional KL divergence, providing fine-grained relational supervision for both old and new classes. Extensive experiments on six benchmarks demonstrate state-of-the-art performance, and consistent improvements on different baselines validate the broad scalability of the proposed framework.
