Through the Theory of Mind’s Eye: Reading Minds with Multimodal Video Large Language Models

Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Zhawnen Chen, Tianchun Wang, Yizhou Wang, Michal Kosinski, Xiang Zhang | Summary: Can large multimodal models have a human-like ability for emotional and social reasoning, and if so, how does it work? Recent research has discovered emergent theory-of-mind (ToM) reasoning capabilities in large language models (LLMs). LLMs […]

On the dark matter content of ultra-diffuse galaxies

Kavli Affiliate: Andrey Kravtsov | First 5 Authors: Andrey Kravtsov, , , , | Summary: I compare the dark matter content within stellar half-mass radius expected in a $Lambda$CDM-based galaxy formation model with existing observational estimates for the observed dwarf satellites of the Milky Way and ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs). The model reproduces the main properties […]

Solving k-SAT problems with generalized quantum measurement

Kavli Affiliate: Birgitta Whaley | First 5 Authors: Yipei Zhang, Philippe Lewalle, K. Birgitta Whaley, , | Summary: We generalize the projection-based quantum measurement-driven $k$-SAT algorithm of Benjamin, Zhao, and Fitzsimons (BZF, arxiv:1711.02687) to arbitrary strength quantum measurements, including the limit of continuous monitoring. In doing so, we clarify that this algorithm is a particular […]
