Kavli Affiliate: Edvard Moser and May-Britt Moser | Authors: Abraham Z. Vollan, Richard J. Gardner, May-Britt Moser and Edvard I. Moser | Summary: Place cells in the hippocampus and grid cells in the entorhinal cortex are elements of a neural map of self- position. To benefit navigation, this representation must be dynamically related to surrounding […]
Kavli Affiliate: Masahiro Kawasaki | Summary:We study a primordial black hole (PBH) formation model based on the framework of the inhomogeneous Affleck-Dine (AD) mechanism, which can explain the seeds of supermassive black holes (SMBHs). This model, however, predicts strong clustering of SMBHs that is inconsistent with the observation of angular correlation of quasars. In this […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kristina Nielsen Loyal Goff | Authors: Soraia Barao, Yijun Xu, Rachel Vistein, Loyal Goff, Kristina Nielsen, Byoung-Il Bae, Richard S. Smith, Christopher A Walsh, Genevieve Stein O Brien and Ulrich Muller | Summary: The mammalian neocortex differs vastly in size and complexity between mammalian species, yet the mechanisms that lead to an increase […]
Kavli Affiliate: Carlos Bustamante | Summary:Oceania and Island Southeast Asia have a rich, yet understudied, human genomic landscape. This region encompasses some of the first areas inhabited by humans following the out-of-Africa expansion, includes populations with the highest levels of archaic hominin introgression, and contains Pacific islands that are among the most remote continuously inhabited […]
Kavli Affiliate: Cees Dekker | Summary:Synchronization plays a crucial role in the dynamics of living organisms, from fireflies flashing in unison to pacemaker cells that jointly generate heartbeats. Uncovering the mechanism behind these phenomena requires an understanding of individual biological oscillators and the coupling forces between them. Here, we develop a single-cell assay that studies […]
Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Feng Wang, M. Cenk Gursoy, Senem Velipasalar, , | Summary: In this paper, we propose feature-based federated transfer learning as a novel approach to improve communication efficiency by reducing the uplink payload by multiple orders of magnitude compared to that of existing approaches in federated learning and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Sreekanth Chalasani | Authors: Kathleen T Quach, Gillian A Hughes and Sreekanth H Chalasani | Summary: Prey must balance the need to avoid predators with the need to feed, a dilemma central to prey refuge theory. Additionally, prey must also assess predatory imminence, or how close predator threats are in space and time. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jean Fan | Authors: Jude Marvin Phillip, Pratik Kamat, Nico Macaluso, Chanhong Min, Yukang Li, Anshika Agrawal, Aaron Winston, Lauren Pan, Bartholomew Marvin Starich, Teasia Stewert, Pei-Hsun Wu, Jean Fan and Jeremy Walston | Summary: Cellular senescence is an established driver of aging, exhibiting context-dependent phenotypes across multiple biological length-scales. Despite its mechanistic […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Lingdong Kong, Shaoyuan Xie, Hanjiang Hu, Yaru Niu, Wei Tsang Ooi | Summary: In the realm of autonomous driving, robust perception under out-of-distribution conditions is paramount for the safe deployment of vehicles. Challenges such as adverse weather, sensor malfunctions, and environmental unpredictability can severely impact the performance […]
