Examining the Role of Chloride Ligands on Defect Removal in Imperfectly Attached Semiconductor Nanocrystals for 1D and 2D Attachment Cases

Posted by klaurent Berkeley

Kavli Affiliate: Paul Alivisatos | Summary:Semiconducting, core-shell nanocrystals (NCs) are promising building blocks for the construction of higher dimensional artificial nanostructures using oriented attachment. However, the assembly and epitaxial attachment steps critical to this construction introduce disorder and defects which inhibit the observation of desirable emergent electronic phenomena. Consequently, understanding defect formation and remediation in […]

Polarisation of magnetospheric curvature radiation in repeating fast radio bursts

Posted by klaurent Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Kejia Lee | First 5 Authors: Wei-Yang Wang, Jin-Chen Jiang, Kejia Lee, Renxin Xu, Bing Zhang | Summary: Fast radio busts (FRBs) can exhibit a wide variety of polarisation properties, not only between sources but also from burst to burst for a same one. In this work, we revisit the polarisation characters of […]

Learning to Decompose Visual Features with Latent Textual Prompts

Posted by klaurent Berkeley

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Feng Wang, Manling Li, Xudong Lin, Hairong Lv, Alexander G. Schwing | Summary: Recent advances in pre-training vision-language models like CLIP have shown great potential in learning transferable visual representations. Nonetheless, for downstream inference, CLIP-like models suffer from either 1) degraded accuracy and robustness in the case […]

Biogeography of human-health associated butyrate-producing bacteria

Posted by klaurent UCSF

Kavli Affiliate: Robert Edwards | Authors: Joel E Brame, Craig Liddicoat, Catherine A Abbott, Robert A Edwards, Jake M Robinson, Nicolas E Gauthier and Martin F Breed | Summary: Abstract Butyrate-producing bacteria are found in many ecosystems and organisms, including humans. They ferment organic matter, producing the by-product butyrate, a short-chain fatty acid with important […]

Unweighted estimation based on optimal sample under measurement constraints

Posted by klaurent Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Jing Wang, HaiYing Wang, Shifeng Xiong, , | Summary: To tackle massive data, subsampling is a practical approach to select the more informative data points. However, when responses are expensive to measure, developing efficient subsampling schemes is challenging, and an optimal sampling approach under measurement constraints was […]

Multi-Modal Human Authentication Using Silhouettes, Gait and RGB

Posted by klaurent UCAS

Kavli Affiliate: Cheng Peng | First 5 Authors: Yuxiang Guo, Cheng Peng, Chun Pong Lau, Rama Chellappa, | Summary: Whole-body-based human authentication is a promising approach for remote biometrics scenarios. Current literature focuses on either body recognition based on RGB images or gait recognition based on body shapes and walking patterns; both have their advantages […]

Dopamine signaling regulates predator-driven behavioral changes in Caenorhabditis elegans

Posted by klaurent UCSD / Salk

Kavli Affiliate: Sreekanth Chalasani | Authors: Amy Pribadi, Kaila Rosales, Kirthi C Reddy and Sreekanth H Chalasani | Summary: Abstract Prey respond to predators by altering their behavior to optimize their own fitness and survival. We probe the interactions between Caenorhabditis elegans and its naturally cohabiting predator Pristionchus uniformis to reveal the pathways driving changes […]

Oscillations and aperiodic activity: Evidence for dynamic changes in both during memory encoding

Posted by klaurent UCSD / Salk

Kavli Affiliate: Bradley Voytek | Authors: Michael Preston, Natalie Schaworonkow and Bradley Voytek | Summary: Abstract Electrical recordings of human brain activity via electroencephalography (EEG) show prominent, rhythmic voltage fluctuations. These periodic oscillations have been linked to nearly every cognitive and perceptual process, as well numerous disease states. Recent methodological and theoretical advances, however, have […]
