Search for non-Newtonian interactions at micrometer scale with a levitated test mass

Kavli Affiliate: Giorgio Gratta | Summary:We report on a search for non-Newtonian forces that couple to mass, with a characteristic scale of $sim10~μ$m, using an optically levitated microsphere as a precision force sensor. A silica microsphere trapped in an upward-propagating, single-beam, optical tweezer is utilized to probe for interactions sourced from a nanofabricated attractor mass […]

Rethinking the Optimization of Average Precision: Only Penalizing Negative Instances before Positive Ones is Enough

Kavli Affiliate: Zhuo Li | First 5 Authors: Zhuo Li, Weiqing Min, Jiajun Song, Yaohui Zhu, Liping Kang | Summary: Optimising the approximation of Average Precision (AP) has been widely studied for image retrieval. Limited by the definition of AP, such methods consider both negative and positive instances ranking before each positive instance. However, we […]
