Machine learning (ML) can facilitate efficient thermoelectric (TE) material discovery essential to address the environmental crisis. However, ML models often suffer from poor experimental generalizability despite high metrics. This study presents a robust workflow, applied to the half-Heusler (hH) structural prototype, for figure of merit (zT) prediction, to improve the generalizability of ML models. To resolve challenges in dataset handling and feature filtering, we first introduce a rigorous PCA-based splitting method that ensures training and test sets are […]

Informed Machine Learning has emerged as a viable generalization of Machine Learning (ML) by building a unified conceptual and algorithmic setting for constructing models on a unified basis of knowledge and data. Physics-informed ML involving physics equations is one of the developments within Informed Machine Learning. This study proposes a novel direction of Knowledge-Data ML, referred to as KD-ML, where numeric data are integrated with knowledge tidbits expressed in the form of granular knowledge landmarks. We advocate that […]

Early warning of intraoperative adverse events plays a vital role in reducing surgical risk and improving patient safety. While deep learning has shown promise in predicting the single adverse event, several key challenges remain: overlooking adverse event dependencies, underutilizing heterogeneous clinical data, and suffering from the class imbalance inherent in medical datasets. To address these issues, we construct the first Multi-label Adverse Events dataset (MuAE) for intraoperative adverse events prediction, covering six critical events. Next, we propose a […]

Sign language translation (SLT) aims to convert sign language videos into spoken language text, serving as a critical bridge for communication between the Deaf and hearing communities. While recent advances in Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have shown promising results in gloss-free SLT, existing methods typically rely on single-modality visual features, failing to fully exploit the complementary nature of appearance and structural cues inherent in sign language. In this architectural proposition paper, we introduce SignFuse, a novel dual-stream […]

arXiv:2603.20200v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The fields of human-robot interaction (HRI) and embodied conversational agents (ECAs) have long studied how empathy could be implemented in machines. One of the major drivers has been the goal of giving multimodal social and emotional intelligence to these artificially intelligent agents, which interact with people through facial expressions, body, gesture, and speech. What empathic behaviors and models have these fields implemented by mimicking human and animal behavior? In what ways have they […]
