Joint Optimization of Hadamard Sensing and Reconstruction in Compressed Sensing Fluorescence Microscopy

Kavli Affiliate: Chris Xu | First 5 Authors: Alan Q. Wang, Aaron K. LaViolette, Leo Moon, Chris Xu, Mert R. Sabuncu | Summary: Compressed sensing fluorescence microscopy (CS-FM) proposes a scheme whereby less measurements are collected during sensing and reconstruction is performed to recover the image. Much work has gone into optimizing the sensing and […]

Learning Gaussian Graphical Models with Latent Confounders

Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Ke Wang, Alexander Franks, Sang-Yun Oh, , | Summary: Gaussian Graphical models (GGM) are widely used to estimate the network structures in many applications ranging from biology to finance. In practice, data is often corrupted by latent confounders which biases inference of the underlying true graphical structure. […]

The Sizes of Quasar Host Galaxies with the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program

Kavli Affiliate: John D. Silverman | First 5 Authors: Junyao Li, John D. Silverman, Xuheng Ding, Michael A. Strauss, Andy Goulding | Summary: The relationship between quasars and their host galaxies provides clues on how supermassive black holes (SMBHs) and massive galaxies are jointly assembled. To elucidate this connection, we measure the structural and photometric […]

Thermal anyon interferometry in phonon-coupled Kitaev spin liquids

Kavli Affiliate: Joel E. Moore | First 5 Authors: Kai Klocke, Joel E. Moore, Jason Alicea, Gábor B. Halász, | Summary: Recent theoretical studies inspired by experiments on the Kitaev magnet $alpha$-RuCl$_3$ highlight the nontrivial impact of phonons on the thermal Hall conductivity of chiral topological phases. Here we introduce mixed mesoscopic-macroscopic devices that allow […]

Design of a frequency-independent optic axis Pancharatnam-based achromatic half-wave plate

Kavli Affiliate: Nobuhiko Katayama | Summary:Pancharatnam-based achromatic half-wave plates (AHWP) achieve high polarization efficiency over a broad waveband. These AWHPs generally contain a property whereby the optic axis is dependent on the electromagnetic frequency of the incident radiation. When the AHWP is used to measure incident polarized radiation with a finite detection bandwidth, this frequency […]
