RAG-R1:Incentivizing the Search and Reasoning Capabilities of LLMs Through Multi-Query Parallelism

Large Language Models (LLMs), despite their remarkable capabilities, are prone to generating hallucinated or outdated content due to their static internal knowledge. While Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) integrated with Reinforcement Learning (RL) offers a solution, these methods are fundamentally constrained by a single-query mode, leading to prohibitive latency and inherent brittleness. To overcome these limitations, we introduce RAG-R1, a novel two-stage training framework centered around multi-query parallelism. Our framework enables LLMs to adaptively leverage internal and external knowledge during the reasoning process while transitioning from the single-query mode to multi-query parallelism. This architectural shift bolsters reasoning robustness while significantly reducing inference latency. Extensive experiments on seven question-answering benchmarks confirm the superiority of our method, which outperforms the strongest baseline by up to 13.7% and decreases inference time by 11.1%.

SemanticNN: Compressive and Error-Resilient Semantic Offloading for Extremely Weak Devices

With the rapid growth of the Internet of Things (IoT), integrating artificial intelligence (AI) on extremely weak embedded devices has garnered significant attention, enabling improved real-time performance and enhanced data privacy. However, the resource limitations of such devices and unreliable network conditions necessitate error-resilient device-edge collaboration systems. Traditional approaches focus on bit-level transmission correctness, which can be inefficient under dynamic channel conditions. In contrast, we propose SemanticNN, a semantic codec that tolerates bit-level errors in pursuit of semantic-level correctness, enabling compressive and resilient collaborative inference offloading under strict computational and communication constraints. It incorporates a Bit Error Rate (BER)-aware decoder that adapts to dynamic channel conditions and a Soft Quantization (SQ)-based encoder to learn compact representations. Building on this architecture, we introduce Feature-augmentation Learning, a novel training strategy that enhances offloading efficiency. To address encoder-decoder capability mismatches from asymmetric resources, we propose XAI-based Asymmetry Compensation to enhance decoding semantic fidelity. We conduct extensive experiments on STM32 using three models and six datasets across image classification and object detection tasks. Experimental results demonstrate that, under varying transmission error rates, SemanticNN significantly reduces feature transmission volume by 56.82–344.83× while maintaining superior inference accuracy.

Multi-modal salient object detection (MSOD), which integrates complementary modalities such as depth or thermal data, primarily faces two challenges: accurately preserving salient object details and effectively aligning cross-modal features. Recent advances in using Stable Diffusion to generate images with fine edge details have inspired researchers to reformulate MSOD as a conditional mask generation process guided by salient features, which has achieved excellent visual results. However, these approaches often overlook the high computational cost and large-scale architecture of Stable Diffusion, both of which render it unsuitable for real-world MSOD applications. Therefore, we propose SimpleDiffusion, the first lightweight and efficient conditional diffusion model for MSOD that does not rely on Stable Diffusion. Specifically, we propose an Adaptive Cross-Modal Fusion Conditional Network and a Latent Denoising Network to reduce the complexity of diffusion models. Furthermore, we design a Multi-modal Feature Rectification and Fusion Module to enhance the representational capacity of cross-modal salient features. Customized training and sampling strategies are also developed to improve inference efficiency and reduce erroneous object segmentations. Experiments on multiple MSOD datasets demonstrate that SimpleDiffusion reduces model size by over tenfold and improves inference speed by more than fivefold compared to other diffusion-based methods, while maintaining comparable or superior performance.

DiMSOD: A Diffusion-Based Framework for Multi-Modal Salient Object Detection

Multi-modal salient object detection (SOD) through the integration of additional data such as depth or thermal information has become a significant task in computer vision during recent years. Traditionally, the challenges of identifying salient objects in RGB, RGB-D (Depth), and RGB-T (Thermal) images are tackled separately. However, without intricate cross-modal fusion strategies, such approaches struggle to effectively integrate multi-modal information, often resulting in poorly defined object edges or overconfident inaccurate predictions. Recent studies have shown that designing a unified end-to-end framework to handle all three types of SOD tasks simultaneously is both necessary and difficult. To address this need, we propose a novel approach that treats multi-modal SOD as a conditional mask generation task utilizing diffusion models. We introduce DiMSOD, which enables the concurrent use of local (depth maps, thermal maps) and global controls (original images) within a unified model for progressive denoising and refined prediction. DiMSOD is efficient, only requiring fine-tuning of our newly introduced modules on the existing stable diffusion, which not only reduces the fine-tuning cost, making it more viable for practical use, but also enhances the integration of multi-modal conditional controls. Specifically, we have developed modules including SOD-ControlNet, Feature Adaptive Network (FAN), and Feature Injection Attention Network (FIAN) to enhance the model's performance. Extensive experiments demonstrate that DiMSOD efficiently detects salient objects across RGB, RGB-D, and RGB-T datasets, achieving superior performance compared to previous well-established methods.

Collaboration Based Multi-Label Propagation for Fraud Detection

Detecting fraud users, who fraudulently promote certain target items, is a challenging issue faced by e-commerce platforms. Generally, many fraud users have different spam behaviors simultaneously, e. g. spam transactions, clicks, reviews and so on. Existing solutions have two main limitations: 1) the correlations among multiple spam behaviors are neglected; 2) large-scale computations are intractable when dealing with an enormous user set. To remedy these problems, this work proposes a collaboration based multi-label propagation (CMLP) algorithm. We first introduce a general-purpose version that involves collaboration technique to exploit label correlations. Specifically, it breaks the final prediction into two parts: 1) its own prediction part; 2) the prediction of others, i. e. collaborative part. Then, to accelerate it on large-scale e-commerce data, we propose a heterogeneous graph based variant that detects communities on the user-item graph directly. Both theoretical analysis and empirical results clearly validate the effectiveness and scalability of our proposals.

ei, 1 xi, 1 In this paper, we study the unsupervised multi-view graph embedding (UMGE) problem, which aims to learn graph embedding from multiple perspectives in an unsupervised manner. However, the vast majority of multiview learning work focuses on non-graph data, and surprisingly there are limited work on UMGE. By systematically analyzing different existing methods for UMGE, we discover that cross-view and nonlinearity play a vital role in efficiently improving graph embedding quality. Motivated by this concept, we develop an unsupervised Multi-viEw nonlineaR Graph Embedding (MERGE) approach to model relational multi-view consistency. Experimental results on five benchmark datasets demonstrate that MERGE significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art baselines in terms of accuracy in node classification tasks without sacrificing the computational efficiency.
