Modeling Phonon-mediated Quasiparticle Poisoning in Superconducting Qubit Arrays

Posted by dbos February 23, 2024March 4, 2024Stanford

Kavli Affiliate: Noah Kurinsky | First 5 Authors: Eric Yelton, Clayton P. Larson, Vito Iaia, Kenneth Dodge, Guglielmo La Magna | Summary: Correlated errors caused by ionizing radiation impacting superconducting qubit chips are problematic for quantum error correction. Such impacts generate quasiparticle (QP) excitations in the qubit electrodes, which temporarily reduce qubit coherence significantly. The […]

DEEM: Dynamic Experienced Expert Modeling for Stance Detection

Posted by dbos February 23, 2024UCAS

Kavli Affiliate: Cheng Peng | First 5 Authors: Xiaolong Wang, Yile Wang, Sijie Cheng, Peng Li, Yang Liu | Summary: Recent work has made a preliminary attempt to use large language models (LLMs) to solve the stance detection task, showing promising results. However, considering that stance detection usually requires detailed background knowledge, the vanilla reasoning […]

AGN feedback in isolated galaxies with a SMUGGLE multiphase ISM

Posted by dbos February 23, 2024March 4, 2024MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Mark Vogelsberger | First 5 Authors: Aneesh Sivasankaran, Laura Blecha, Paul Torrey, Luke Zoltan Kelley, Aklant Bhowmick | Summary: Feedback from active galactic nuclei (AGN) can strongly impact the host galaxies by driving high-velocity winds that impart substantial energy and momentum to the interstellar medium (ISM). In this work, we study the impact […]

PEMT: Multi-Task Correlation Guided Mixture-of-Experts Enables Parameter-Efficient Transfer Learning

Posted by dbos February 23, 2024March 4, 2024Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Zhuo Li | First 5 Authors: Zhisheng Lin, Han Fu, Chenghao Liu, Zhuo Li, Jianling Sun | Summary: Parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) has emerged as an effective method for adapting pre-trained language models to various tasks efficiently. Recently, there has been a growing interest in transferring knowledge from one or multiple tasks to the […]

Spatial context non-uniformly modulates inter-laminar communication in the primary visual cortex

Posted by dbos February 23, 2024March 4, 2024Yale

Kavli Affiliate: Anirvan Nandy | Authors: Xize Xu, Mitchell P Morton, Nyomi Hudson, Anirvan Nandy and Monika P. Jadi | Summary: Our visual experience is a result of the concerted activity of neuronal ensembles in the sensory hierarchy. Yet how the spatial organization of objects influences neural activity in this hierarchy remains poorly understood. We […]

The Origin and Evolution of Sex Peptide and Sex Peptide Receptor Interactions

Posted by dbos February 23, 2024March 4, 2024Rockefeller

Kavli Affiliate: Li Zhao | Authors: Junhui Peng, Nicolas Svetec, Henrik Molina and Li Zhao | Summary: Post-mating responses play a vital role in successful reproduction across diverse species. In fruit flies, sex peptide (SP) binds to sex peptide receptor (SPR), triggering a series of post-mating responses. However, the origin of SPR predates the emergence […]

Rejuvenating silicon probes for acute electrophysiology

Posted by dbos February 23, 2024March 4, 2024Hopkins

Kavli Affiliate: Reza Shadmehr | Authors: Alden Shoup, Natasha Porwal, Mohammad Amin Fakharian, Paul Hage, Simon P Orozco and Reza Shadmehr | Summary: Electrophysiological recording with a new probe often yields better signal quality than with a used probe. Why does the signal quality degrade after only a few experiments? Here, we considered silicon probes […]

Inhibition of Indirect Pathway Activity Causes Abnormal Decision-Making In a Mouse Model of Impulse Control Disorder in Parkinson’s Disease

Posted by dbos February 23, 2024March 4, 2024UCSF

Kavli Affiliate: Alexandra Nelson | Authors: Xiaowen Zhuang, Julia Lemak, Sadhana Sridhar and Alexandra B Nelson | Summary: Healthy action selection relies on the coordinated activity of striatal direct and indirect pathway neurons. In Parkinson’s disease (PD), in which loss of midbrain dopamine neurons is associated with progressive motor and cognitive deficits, this coordination is […]
