DialogConv: A Lightweight Fully Convolutional Network for Multi-view Response Selection

Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Yongkang Liu, Shi Feng, Wei Gao, Daling Wang, Yifei Zhang | Summary: Current end-to-end retrieval-based dialogue systems are mainly based on Recurrent Neural Networks or Transformers with attention mechanisms. Although promising results have been achieved, these models often suffer from slow inference or huge number of parameters. […]

Experimental observations of fractal landscape dynamics in a dense emulsion

Kavli Affiliate: Vinothan N. Manoharan | First 5 Authors: Clary Rodriguez-Cruz, Mehdi Molaei, Amruthesh Thirumalaiswamy, Klebert Feitosa, Vinothan N. Manoharan | Summary: Many soft and biological materials display so-called ‘soft glassy’ dynamics; their constituents undergo anomalous random motions and complex cooperative rearrangements. A recent simulation model of one soft glassy material, a coarsening foam, suggested […]

Fractal landscape dynamics in dense emulsions and stock prices

Kavli Affiliate: Vinothan N. Manoharan | First 5 Authors: Clary Rodriguez-Cruz, Mehdi Molaei, Amruthesh Thirumalaiswamy, Klebert Feitosa, Vinothan N. Manoharan | Summary: Many soft and biological materials display so-called ‘soft glassy’ dynamics; their constituents undergo anomalous random motion and intermittent cooperative rearrangements. Stock prices show qualitatively similar dynamics, whose origins also remain poorly understood. Recent […]

Mechanotransduction events at the physiological site of touch detection

Kavli Affiliate: Elena Gracheva | Authors: Luke H. Ziolkowski, Elena O. Gracheva and Sviatoslav N. Bagriantsev | Summary: Abstract Afferents of peripheral mechanoreceptors innervate the skin of vertebrates, where they detect physical touch via mechanically gated ion channels (mechanotransducers). While the afferent terminal is generally understood to be the primary site of mechanotransduction, the functional […]

Electro-optic transduction in silicon via GHz-frequency nanomechanics

Kavli Affiliate: Mohammad Mirhosseini | First 5 Authors: Han Zhao, Alkim Bozkurt, Mohammad Mirhosseini, , | Summary: Interfacing electronics with optical fiber networks is key to the long-distance transfer of classical and quantum information. Piezo-optomechanical transducers enable such interfaces by using GHz-frequency acoustic vibrations as mediators for converting microwave photons to optical photons via the […]

Bounded multiplicity branching for symmetric pairs

Kavli Affiliate: Toshiyuki Kobayashi | First 5 Authors: Toshiyuki Kobayashi, , , , | Summary: We prove that any simply connected non-compact semisimple Lie group $G$ admits an infinite-dimensional irreducible representation $Pi$ with bounded multiplicity property of the restriction $Pi|_{G’}$ for all symmetric pairs $(G, G’)$. We also discuss which irreducible representations $Pi$ satisfy the […]
