TimeXer provides an Endo/Exo dual-branch architecture that separates target-sequence modeling from auxiliary-variable interaction, but its patch-level tokenization may underrepresent fine-grained local transitions, while standard Exo-branch attention may be sensitive to redundant or weakly informative variables. This paper proposes DAT-TimeXer, a structure-aware adaptation of TimeXer for closing-price forecasting. The model introduces a temporal convolutional network before tokenization to encode causal and dilated local temporal patterns at the original resolution, and applies multi-head differential attention exclusively to the Exo branch. By contrasting two independently learned attention maps, the Exo-side module refines auxiliary-variable dependencies before Endo–Exo interaction while preserving target-sequence dynamics in the Endo branch. Experiments are conducted on three Chinese A-share series and nine U.S.-listed stocks using chronological splits, training-only feature screening, and one-step and multi-step forecasting settings. DAT-TimeXer achieves the lowest mean forecasting errors among the compared models in the one-step evaluations and maintains lower errors at horizons of 1, 3, 5, and 10 in the evaluated multi-step tasks. Cross-asset ablation, chronological subperiod, statistical, and attention analyses provide further evidence for the complementary contributions of pre-tokenization TCN enhancement and Exo-specific differential attention. The added components introduce moderate computational overhead relative to TimeXer.","PeriodicalId":10524,"journal":{"name":"Complex & Intelligent Systems","volume":"68 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2026-09-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148932514","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While existing approaches typically address these challenges through independent mechanisms, their interactions remain insufficiently exploited. We present H3C-BEACON ( Hierarchical Hybrid Heterogeneous Control with Bayesian-Elite Adaptive Coalition Network ), a unified hierarchical framework for coordination and control in cooperative MARL that jointly integrates communication, probabilistic belief inference, adaptive coalition formation, and policy stabilisation. The framework combines six complementary components: (i) Dynamic Graph Attention Networks (DGAT) for distance-aware communication, (ii) Bayesian belief fusion for hidden-state estimation under partial observability, (iii) spectral coalition formation for adaptive role specialisation, (iv) a dual-critic architecture that separates global coordination from local decision making, (v) RTD++ elite-trajectory anchoring to improve policy optimisation stability, and (vi) bounded entropy control to balance exploration and exploitation. We evaluate H3C-BEACON on three widely used cooperative MARL benchmarks spanning communication-intensive, coordination, and imperfect-information settings. On the Multi-Agent Particle Environments, H3C-BEACON consistently improves coordination quality over MAPPO, achieving a perfect win rate across all five independent random seeds on while improving the best episode reward from $$-6.06pm 0.70$$ - 6.06 ± 0.70 to $$-2.35pm 0.62$$ - 2.35 ± 0.62 . On , the framework substantially reduces performance variability, producing a $$95%$$ 95 % confidence interval approximately $$28times $$ 28 × narrower than MAPPO ( $$pm 0.57$$ ± 0.57 versus $$pm 15.90$$ ± 15.90 ), indicating significantly improved reproducibility across random initialisations. Ablation experiments indicate that each architectural component contributes to overall performance, with win-rate reductions ranging from $$28%$$ 28 % (−DGAT) to $$70%$$ 70 % (−RTD++ or −Coalitions) when individual modules are removed. Under partial observability in Hanabi-full, H3C-BEACON increases the mean score from $$2.29pm 0.23$$ 2.29 ± 0.23 to $$3.96pm 0.82$$ 3.96 ± 0.82 ( $$+73%$$ + 73 % ) while avoiding policy collapse across all runs, suggesting that RTD++ provides effective stabilisation during cooperative learning. Although MAPPO remains superior on StarCraft combat scenarios, a result consistent with the structural characteristics of that environment (homogeneous units, dense global state, and no explicit communication channel that would benefit from DGAT or coalition formation), the overall results indicate that jointly modelling communication, belief estimation, adaptive coalition formation, and stable optimisation provides a robust and effective framework for cooperative MARL in en","PeriodicalId":10524,"journal":{"name":"Complex & Intelligent Systems","volume":"6 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2026-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148932516","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
