Optimized Dual Temporal Gated Multi-Graph Convolution Network for Land Use and Land Cover Classification Incorporating Temporal Feature Tracking and High Resolution Satellite Imagery Analysis

Despite a title suggesting a focus on land use classification via satellite imagery, the paper actually proposes a secure and energy-efficient routing and clustering framework for edge-assisted Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) that integrates a Spatial Bayesian Neural Network, Forward Private Verifiable Dynamic Searchable Symmetric Encryption, a Humboldt Squid Optimization Algorithm for cluster head selection, and a Twin Actor Twin Delayed Deep Deterministic policy gradient for duty cycling to significantly improve energy efficiency, network lifetime, and packet delivery ratio.

Cost-Aware Evaluation of Time-Series Foundation Models for Urban Air-Quality and Temperature Forecasting

This study demonstrates that for urban air-quality and temperature forecasting in resource-constrained cities, zero-shot foundation models often match or outperform specialized and transfer-learning approaches when evaluated under realistic data and compute constraints, challenging the assumption that heavy foundation models are unsuitable for such deployments.

Adaptive Lagrangian Attention for Constrained Multimodal Multi-objective Optimization

This paper proposes an adaptive attention-driven Lagrangian relaxation evolutionary algorithm (AALR-CMMOEA) that employs a dual-population co-evolution framework, dynamic constraint pressure adjustment, and an adaptive resource allocation strategy to effectively solve constrained multimodal multi-objective optimization problems by balancing feasibility, diversity, and convergence.

Data leakage inflates reported accuracy of deep learning for kidney stone detection on CT: a leakage-free, calibrated and uncertainty-aware reassessment across three centers

This study demonstrates that image-level data splitting in deep learning models for kidney stone detection on CT artificially inflates reported accuracy by approximately nine percentage points due to data leakage, and advocates for patient-wise, calibrated, and uncertainty-aware evaluation protocols to ensure reliable clinical performance.
