Tube-Balloon Logic for the Exploration of Fluidic Control Elements

Kavli Affiliate: George M. Whitesides | First 5 Authors: Jovanna A. Tracz, Lukas Wille, Dylan Pathiraja, Savita V. Kendre, Ron Pfisterer | Summary: The control of pneumatically driven soft robots typically requires electronics. Microcontrollers are connected to power electronics that switch valves and pumps on and off. As a recent alternative, fluidic control methods have […]

Detecting Preformed-Pair Current through Nonequilibrium Noise in the BCS–BEC Crossover

Kavli Affiliate: Mamoru Matsuo | First 5 Authors: Hiroyuki Tajima, Daigo Oue, Mamoru Matsuo, Takeo Kato, | Summary: We theoretically propose a method to identify the tunneling current carrier in interacting fermions from nonequilibrium noise in the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer to Bose–Einstein condensate crossover. The noise-to-current ratio, the Fano factor, can be a crucial probe for the […]

InferGrad: Improving Diffusion Models for Vocoder by Considering Inference in Training

Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Zehua Chen, Xu Tan, Ke Wang, Shifeng Pan, Danilo Mandic | Summary: Denoising diffusion probabilistic models (diffusion models for short) require a large number of iterations in inference to achieve the generation quality that matches or surpasses the state-of-the-art generative models, which invariably results in slow inference […]

Predicting the Exoplanet Yield of the TESS Prime and Extended Missions Through Years 1-7

Kavli Affiliate: Roland Vanderspek | First 5 Authors: Michelle Kunimoto, Joshua N. Winn, George R. Ricker, Roland Vanderspek, | Summary: The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has discovered $sim$5000 planets and planet candidates after three and a half years of observations. With a planned second Extended Mission spanning Years 5 – 7 on the horizon, […]

Emergence of Crystalline Few-body Correlations in Mass-imbalanced Fermi Polarons

Kavli Affiliate: Cheng Peng | First 5 Authors: Ruijin Liu, Cheng Peng, Xiaoling Cui, , | Summary: Identifying few-body correlations is an efficient tool to solve complex many-body problems. Polarons, interpolating between few- and many-body systems, serve as an ideal platform to achieve the goal. In this work, we reveal the emergence of various crystalline […]

On Unbalanced Optimal Transport: Gradient Methods, Sparsity and Approximation Error

Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Quang Minh Nguyen, Hoang H. Nguyen, Yi Zhou, Lam M. Nguyen, | Summary: We study the Unbalanced Optimal Transport (UOT) between two measures of possibly different masses with at most $n$ components, where the marginal constraints of standard Optimal Transport (OT) are relaxed via Kullback-Leibler divergence with […]
