Hyper Suprime-Cam Year 3 Results: Measurements of Clustering of SDSS-BOSS Galaxies, Galaxy-Galaxy Lensing and Cosmic Shear

Posted by dbos Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: Hitoshi Murayama | First 5 Authors: Surhud More, Sunao Sugiyama, Hironao Miyatake, Markus Michael Rau, Masato Shirasaki | Summary: We use the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) BOSS galaxies and their overlap with approximately 416 sq. degree of deep $grizy$-band imaging from the Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam Survey (HSC). We measure three two-point correlations […]

High-throughput colocalization pipeline quantifies efficacy of mitochondrial targeting signals across different protein types

Posted by klaurent UCSF

Kavli Affiliate: Seth Shipman | Authors: Sierra K Lear, Jose A Nunez and Seth L Shipman | Summary: Efficient metabolic engineering and the development of mitochondrial therapeutics often rely upon the specific and strong import of foreign proteins into mitochondria. Fusing a protein to a mitochondria-bound signal peptide is a common method to localize proteins […]

Human Connectomes Are Heritable

Posted by klaurent Hopkins

Kavli Affiliate: Joshua Vogelstein | Authors: Jaewon Chung, Eric W Bridgeford, Michael Powell and Joshua T Vogelstein | Summary: The heritability of human connectomes is crucial for understanding the genetic and environmental factors that influence variations in connectomes, which can provide insights into behavior and disease. However, current approaches to studying connectome heritability assume an […]

Weakly-Supervised Text-driven Contrastive Learning for Facial Behavior Understanding

Posted by klaurent Berkeley

Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Xiang Zhang, Taoyue Wang, Xiaotian Li, Huiyuan Yang, Lijun Yin | Summary: Contrastive learning has shown promising potential for learning robust representations by utilizing unlabeled data. However, constructing effective positive-negative pairs for contrastive learning on facial behavior datasets remains challenging. This is because such pairs inevitably encode […]
