Constraints on Lightly Ionizing Particles from CDMSlite

Posted by klaurent Stanford

Kavli Affiliate: Paul Brink | Summary:The Cryogenic Dark Matter Search low ionization threshold experiment (CDMSlite) achieved efficient detection of very small recoil energies in its germanium target, resulting in sensitivity to Lightly Ionizing Particles (LIPs) in a previously unexplored region of charge, mass, and velocity parameter space. We report first direct-detection limits calculated using the […]

Shaping Deep Feature Space towards Gaussian Mixture for Visual Classification

Posted by klaurent Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Jiansheng Chen | First 5 Authors: Weitao Wan, Jiansheng Chen, Cheng Yu, Tong Wu, Yuanyi Zhong | Summary: The softmax cross-entropy loss function has been widely used to train deep models for various tasks. In this work, we propose a Gaussian mixture (GM) loss function for deep neural networks for visual classification. Unlike […]
