Noisy node classification problem is a fundamental yet challenging task for real-world graph-related web services, where node labels are often corrupted or unreliable due to weak supervision or automatic annotation. However, existing methods typically train models based on one-hot labels, which not only makes models susceptible to overfitting on noisy labels, but also leads to error accumulation after pseudo-label-guided enhancement. In this paper, we propose a novel Partial label-based Self-training framework (PaSta for short) that leverages partial label learning technique to overcome the limitations of existing methods. Specifically, PaSta first trains multiple annotators to comprehensively capture the class distribution of nodes and aggregates their predictions to construct high-quality partial labels. Subsequently, we design a partial label-based classification model with two well-crafted loss functions to guide the model learning at both label and representation spaces. To further enhance the robustness against noisy labels, we introduce a self-training strategy where the labels refined by partial label learning are then used to further optimize the annotators in a closed-loop iterative manner. Extensive experiments on five datasets demonstrate that, compared with existing state-of-the-art methods, PaSta achieves an average improvement of 1.1% in classification performance under various noise settings.

Tabular anomaly detection (TAD), which focuses on identifying abnormal samples that deviate from the majority in tabular data, has received growing attention. Recently, there has been an emerging trend towards unified TAD, which seeks to detect anomalies across different datasets using a single generalizable model. In unified TAD, aligning heterogeneous data remains challenging. While existing methods often rely on distance-based unified feature construction, they may obscure the semantics of the original features. Moreover, existing approaches typically formulate anomaly detection as a binary classification task, which may overlook diverse anomaly patterns from various datasets and be misled by unrepresentative synthetic anomalies. To address these challenges, we propose an in-COntext REconstruction approach for unified TAD (CORE for short). It introduces a decorrelated feature alignment module to directly align heterogeneous features into a unified representation space, which retains their semantic information. Meanwhile, CORE formulates unified TAD as an in-context reconstruction problem, eliminating the need for labeled or synthesized anomalies. Specifically, the in-context reconstruction module reconstructs each sample by leveraging contextual normal samples to capture dataset-specific distributions, such that reconstruction errors reflect its deviation from normality, facilitating unified TAD on arbitrary unseen datasets.

A D-LLM hallucination detection framework that formulates the Denoising trajectories as Multivariate Time Series over learnable latent variables (DeMTS for short) that outperforms existing hallucination detection methods while maintaining strong robustness, efficiency, and cross-task transferability.
TRE is a parameter-free and single-run metric that estimates hallucination risk directly from the entropy signals of a single generation, without requiring any detector training or repeated sampling, and enjoys strong generalizability, efficiency, and robustness.
