Introspective Deep Metric Learning

Kavli Affiliate: Zheng Zhu | First 5 Authors: Chengkun Wang, Wenzhao Zheng, Zheng Zhu, Jie Zhou, Jiwen Lu | Summary: This paper proposes an introspective deep metric learning (IDML) framework for uncertainty-aware comparisons of images. Conventional deep metric learning methods focus on learning a discriminative embedding to describe the semantic features of images, which ignore […]

Line profile of nuclear de-excitation gamma-ray emission from very hot plasma

Kavli Affiliate: Tadayuki Takahashi | First 5 Authors: Hiroki Yoneda, Felix Aharonian, Paolo Coppi, Thomas Siegert, Tadayuki Takahashi | Summary: De-excitation gamma-ray lines, produced by nuclei colliding with protons, provide information about astrophysical environments where particles have kinetic energies of $10-100$ MeV per nucleon. In general, such environments can be categorized into two types: the […]

Fully scalable randomized benchmarking without motion reversal

Kavli Affiliate: Birgitta Whaley | First 5 Authors: Jordan Hines, Daniel Hothem, Robin Blume-Kohout, Birgitta Whaley, Timothy Proctor | Summary: We introduce binary randomized benchmarking (BiRB), a protocol that streamlines traditional RB by using circuits consisting almost entirely of i.i.d. layers of gates. BiRB reliably and efficiently extracts the average error rate of a Clifford […]

Approximate Lie symmetries and singular perturbation theory

Kavli Affiliate: L. Mahadevan | First 5 Authors: Alexander J. Dear, L. Mahadevan, , , | Summary: Singular perturbation theory plays a central role in the approximate solution of nonlinear differential equations. However, applying these methods is a subtle art owing to the lack of globally applicable algorithms. Inspired by the fact that all exact […]

Approximate Lie symmetries and singular perturbation theory

Kavli Affiliate: L. Mahadevan | First 5 Authors: Alexander J. Dear, L. Mahadevan, , , | Summary: Perturbation theory plays a central role in the approximate solution of nonlinear differential equations. The resultant series expansions are usually divergent and require treatment by singular perturbation methods to generate uniformly valid solutions. However, applying these methods is […]

Ambiguity, Invisibility, and Negativity

Kavli Affiliate: Frank Wilczek | First 5 Authors: Frank Wilczek, , , , | Summary: Many widely different problems have a common mathematical structure wherein limited knowledge lead to ambiguity that can be captured conveniently using a concept of invisibility that requires the introduction of negative values for quantities that are inherently positive. Here I […]
