    Cardiac motion tracking drops manual atlas alignment: CardioDrift beats every baseline on UK Biobank and M&M

    Cardiac motion tracking from cine magnetic resonance previously either lacked anatomical correspondence across subjects or relied on a slow, error-prone manual atlas fit. CardioDrift generalises coherent point drift to jointly register the left-ventricular endocardium, epicardium and right-ventricular atlas surfaces, and estimates per-slice translations inside the same probabilistic model to correct slice misalignment, fitting and propagating the atlas automatically from short-axis segmentation contours alone. On 1,301 UK Biobank subjects and the M&M dataset, its rigid fitting and non-rigid propagation lead every distance and overlap metric against the strongest baseline.

    Cloth dynamics leaves the fixed timestep behind: ContinuousCloth writes motion as a continuous function of time and evaluates dense trajectories up to 17.4x faster

    Cloth simulators usually cut motion into fixed timesteps and return states only on the solver grid, so querying arbitrary times or derivatives means re-running or finite differences. ContinuousCloth represents the cloth trajectory as a differentiable function of time, trained under the residual of a spring-mass ordinary differential equation, and answers position and derivative queries at any timestamp. Across six boundary-condition scenarios its trajectory accuracy matches a high-precision fourth-order Runge-Kutta reference while dense-time evaluation runs up to 17.4 times faster.

    Lung adenocarcinoma survival models stop letting molecular data dominate: clinical anchoring plus sparse correction lifts C-index from 0.697 to 0.7246

    Molecular data in lung adenocarcinoma are high-dimensional relative to the number of observed events, so concatenating them into a survival model invites overfitting and unstable feature selection. CAISL writes predicted risk as a clinical Cox risk plus a sparse molecular correction, and penalizes how much that correction varies across resampled training cohorts. On 470 TCGA-LUAD patients with 119 observed deaths, mean C-index across five independent cross-validation runs was 0.7246 versus 0.6970 for clinical Cox, a paired gain of 0.0276 (95% CI 0.005–0.050); this is internal validation and still needs an independent cohort.

  4. Three agents argue a Supreme Court case: precedent retrieval lifts criminal petitioner Legal-sim to 0.8921

    Judgment prediction has mostly reasoned over case facts, yet real proceedings are shaped by exchanges among judge, petitioner and respondent. ArguGenCourt assigns three independent GPT-4o agents these roles and lets them converse in rounds, seeding prompts with courtroom utterances retrieved from the factually closest precedent document. On criminal petitioner arguments, local precedent retrieval in the multi-agent setting reaches a Legal-sim of 0.8921 against 0.8288 for fact-based conversation under the same retrieval; feeding the generated arguments into judgment prediction gives 0.55 accuracy versus 0.48 for zero-shot.

    Bacterial ID stops chasing exact species: pooling 13-species single-cell images into AST-routing groups lifts accuracy from 65.4% to 77.1%

    Single-cell image classification struggles to name species on unseen strains. SC-MAPS aligns phase-contrast, bright-field and three fluorescence channels on 916,435 cells from 13 species and fuses them with deep learning; on held-out strains single-cell species accuracy is 65.4%, pooling species probabilities into eight AST-routing groups raises it to 77.1%, and combining five cells from one sample reaches 91.1%.

    Flow-of-Thought generates intermediate visual sketches via trajectory flow fields, reaching 100% on Tetris, 99% on colored shapes, and 72.2% versus a 63.9% endpoint-only control on BLINK Multi-view

    The work introduces Flow-of-Thought (FoT), a framework that trains coordinate-, time-, and action-conditioned spatial U-Nets with flow matching on rotation orbits and cumulative shortest-path prefixes, then freezes the learned dynamics; at inference, the source and its horizontal reflection serve as competing hypotheses selected by foreground-weighted reconstruction energy. On locked tests FoT reaches 100.0% on Tetris and 99.0% on colored shapes, with maze endpoint IoU 97.5% and 100% goal reach; under frozen transfer to 133 BLINK Multi-view public validation pairs, the orbit-trained flow reaches 72.2% versus 63.9% for its endpoint-only control.

    AlphaFold database adds more than 8,000 viral protein dimers and launches a pandemic preparedness portal

    On 24 September, researchers added more than 8,000 predicted viral protein dimers from 23 virus families to the AlphaFold Protein Structure Database as part of a new pandemic preparedness portal; the structures were generated with AlphaFold2 from an analysis of 41,774 proteins from about 2,800 viruses, and 2,749 homodimers and 5,279 heterodimers were judged accurate enough to be included.
