This research introduces a novel, deep-learning-enabled approach for designing complex multi-port radio-frequency and sub-terahertz circuits and electromagnetic structures. The methodology overcomes limitations of traditional design methods by using deep learning models to achieve rapid synthesis of arbitrary-shaped structures with desired radiative and scattering properties. The key innovation lies in using a convolutional neural network (CNN) to predict the spectral response of electromagnetic structures, thereby eliminating the need for time-consuming electromagnetic simulations. Experimental results validate the approach through the design, fabrication, and measurement of various components, including antennas, filters, and a broadband mm-Wave amplifier. The developed method enables a new era of automated design for RF/sub-THz systems, promising enhanced performance and reduced design time.

This research addresses the challenge of improving monocular depth estimation (MDE) using unlabeled data through a novel distillation framework. The core innovation is Cross-Context Distillation, which combines local and global depth cues to enhance pseudo-label quality and model accuracy. A multi-teacher distillation approach further leverages complementary strengths of different depth estimation models for more robust predictions. The paper systematically analyzes the impact of various depth normalization strategies on pseudo-label distillation, revealing that Cross-Context Distillation significantly outperforms existing methods on benchmark datasets.Experiments validate the effectiveness of their approach, improving both fine details and overall depth consistency in MDE.

The research introduces MHA2MLA, a novel fine-tuning framework designed to adapt existing MHA-based language models to the more efficient MLA architecture. MLA achieves economical inference by compressing the key-value (KV) cache. MHA2MLA employs partial RoPE and low-rank approximation techniques to minimize performance degradation during the adaptation. Experiments demonstrate that MHA2MLA, requiring only a fraction of the original training data, significantly reduces KV cache size while preserving performance in commonsense reasoning and long-context tasks. The study further shows MHA2MLA is compatible with quantization techniques, offering compound efficiency gains. Ablation studies explore different RoPE removal strategies and SVD methods to optimize performance.

This paper introduces SWE-RL, a reinforcement learning (RL) method to improve large language models (LLMs) for software engineering tasks using software evolution data and rule-based rewards. The approach trains LLMs to autonomously learn from open-source software's lifecycle, including code snapshots, changes, and events. The resulting model, Llama3-SWE-RL-70B, achieves state-of-the-art performance among medium-sized models on SWE-bench Verified, a benchmark for solving real-world GitHub issues. Surprisingly, training with SWE-RL on software evolution data enhances the LLM's generalized reasoning skills, leading to improved performance on out-of-domain tasks like math and code generation. This highlights the potential of RL on software engineering data to improve LLM reasoning and the paper also introduces Agentless Mini, a framework that prioritizes straightforward component decomposition, parallelization, and scalability. Ultimately, this research paves the way for developing more powerful and reliable LLMs for software engineering.
