Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Abhijit Biswas, Qiyuan Ruan, Frank Lee, Chenxi Li, Sathvik Ajay Iyengar | Summary: Two-dimensional van der Waals (2D-vdW) layered hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) has gained tremendous research interest over recent years due to its unconventional domain growth morphology, fascinating properties and application potentials as an excellent dielectric […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Abhijit Biswas, Rishi Maiti, Frank Lee, Cecilia Y. Chen, Tao Li | Summary: Room temperature growth of two-dimensional van der Waals (2D-vdW) materials is indispensable for state-of-the-art nanotechnology as it supersedes the requirement of elevated growth temperature accompanied with additional high thermal budgets, and the possibility of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Nergis Mavalvala | Summary:Today’s most precise optical instruments — gravitational-wave interferometers and optical atomic clocks — rely on long storage times for photons to realize their exquisite sensitivity. Optical fiber technology is the most widely deployed platform for realizing long-distance optical propagation. Yet, their application to precision optical measurements is sparse. We review […]

Kavli Affiliate: Zheng Zhu | First 5 Authors: Xiaofeng Wang, Zheng Zhu, Guan Huang, Xu Chi, Yun Ye | Summary: Self-supervised monocular methods can efficiently learn depth information of weakly textured surfaces or reflective objects. However, the depth accuracy is limited due to the inherent ambiguity in monocular geometric modeling. In contrast, multi-frame depth estimation […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Ziqi Xu, Jixue Liu, Debo Cheng, Jiuyong Li, Lin Liu | Summary: Much research has been devoted to the problem of learning fair representations; however, they do not explicitly the relationship between latent representations. In many real-world applications, there may be causal relationships between latent representations. Furthermore, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Zheqi Lv, Feng Wang, Shengyu Zhang, Kun Kuang, Hongxia Yang | Summary: In an era of information explosion, recommendation systems play an important role in people’s daily life by facilitating content exploration. It is known that user activeness, i.e., number of behaviors, tends to follow a long-tail […]
