Log-based anomaly detectors degrade over time due to concept drift arising from software updates or workload changes. Existing systems typically react by retraining entire models, leading to catastrophic forgetting and inefficiencies. We propose an adaptive framework that first classifies drift in log data into semantic (frequency shifts within known templates) …

Financial text extraction faces serious challenges in multi-entity sentiment attribution and numerical sensitivity, often leading to pitfalls in real-world deployment. In this work, we propose ConFIT (Contrastive Financial Information Tuning), a knowledge-guided contrastive learning framework that employs a Semantic-Preserving Perturbation (SPP) engine to generate high-quality, programmatically synthesized hard negatives. By …

Industrial fault detection systems often struggle to distinguish benign operational drifts (e.g., tool wear, recipe changes) from incipient faults, frequently adapting to faults as new ``normal'' states and risking catastrophic failures. This work proposes a hierarchical framework that decouples change detection from change characterization. When a drift is detected, the …

Wearable Human Activity Recognition (HAR) systems face significant performance degradation when sensors are placed at different body locations or orientations. We introduce a hierarchical adaptive normalization method that addresses these challenges through a two-stage cascade. The first stage combines gravity-based orientation correction with placement context inference using signal variance analysis, …

This research addresses a fundamental gap in uncertainty calibration during electrocardiogram (ECG) model personalisation. We propose \emph{Adaptive Evidential Meta-Learning}, a framework that attaches a lightweight evidential head with hyper-network-conditioned priors to a frozen ECG foundation model. The hyper-network dynamically sets the evidential prior using robust, class-conditional statistics computed from a …
