Unsupervised Surrogate-Assisted Synthesis of Free-Form Planar Antenna Topologies for IoT Applications

This paper proposes an unsupervised, surrogate-assisted framework that automatically generates and optimizes free-form planar antenna topologies for IoT applications by combining a classifier for topology selection with a bi-stage gradient-based tuning process, as validated through numerical experiments on bandwidth-enhanced patch antennas.

Implicit-Explicit Trust Region Method for Computing Second-Order Stationary Points of A Class of Landau Models

This paper proposes an implicit-explicit trust region method that leverages the specific Hessian structure of Landau-type free energy functionals to efficiently compute second-order stationary points, enabling the identification of physically stable phases like the FDDD structure in the Landau-Brazovskii model with provable convergence guarantees.
