Kavli Affiliate: Michael M. Fausnaugh | First 5 Authors: Krzysztof A. Rybicki, Yossi Shvartzvald, Jennifer C. Yee, Sebastiano Calchi Novati, Eran O. Ofek | Summary: In the pursuit of understanding the population of stellar remnants within the Milky Way, we analyze the sample of $sim 950$ microlensing events observed by the Spitzer Space Telescope between […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alireza Marandi | First 5 Authors: Rajveer Nehra, Changhun Oh, Liang Jiang, Alireza Marandi, | Summary: Distributed quantum sensing (DQS) leverages quantum resources to estimate an unknown global property of a networked quantum sensor beyond the classical limit. We propose and analyze an all-optical resource-efficient scheme for the next-generation DQS systems. Our method […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Jinhu Qi, Shuai Yan, Wentao Zhang, Yibo Zhang, Zirui Liu | Summary: Tibet, ensconced within China’s territorial expanse, is distinguished by its labyrinthine and heterogeneous topography, a testament to its profound historical heritage, and the cradle of a unique religious ethos. The very essence of these attributes, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alireza Marandi | First 5 Authors: Anni Li, Mehran Bahri, Robert M. Gray, Seowon Choi, Sajjad Hoseinkhani | Summary: Frequency comb and field-resolved broadband absorption spectroscopy are promising techniques for rapid, precise, and sensitive detection of short-lived atmospheric pollutants on-site. Enhancing detection sensitivity in absorption spectroscopy hinges on bright sources that cover molecular […]
Kavli Affiliate: Zhuo Li | First 5 Authors: Xishui Tian, Zhuo Li, Quanbu Gou, Hengying Zhang, Huihai He | Summary: Composition measurement of cosmic rays (CRs) around the knee of the CR energy spectrum is crucial for studying the processes of particle acceleration and propagation of Galactic CRs. The Square Kilometer Array (KM2A) of Large […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ran Wang | First 5 Authors: Rixin Wu, Ran Wang, Jie Hao, Qiang Wu, Ping Wang | Summary: This paper proposes a weight-aware deep reinforcement learning (WADRL) approach designed to address the multiobjective vehicle routing problem with time windows (MOVRPTW), aiming to use a single deep reinforcement learning (DRL) model to solve the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Hu Zhan | First 5 Authors: Chengqi Liu, Youhua Xu, Xianmin Meng, Xin Zhang, Shi-Yu Li | Summary: The China Space Station Telescope (CSST, also known as Xuntian) is a serviceable two-meter-aperture wide-field telescope operating in the same orbit as the China Space Station. The CSST plans to survey a sky area of […]
Kavli Affiliate: Bo Gu | First 5 Authors: Ziqi Lin, Xu Zhang, Shimin Gong, Lanhua Li, Zhou Su | Summary: Long-range (LoRa) communication technology, distinguished by its low power consumption and long communication range, is widely used in the Internet of Things. Nevertheless, the LoRa MAC layer adopts pure ALOHA for medium access control, which […]
Kavli Affiliate: Ting Xu | First 5 Authors: Haowei Yang, Yuxiang Hu, Shuyao He, Ting Xu, Jiajie Yuan | Summary: This study introduces an innovative application of Conditional Generative Adversarial Networks (C-GAN) integrated with Stacked Hourglass Networks (SHGN) aimed at enhancing image segmentation, particularly in the challenging environment of medical imaging. We address the problem […]
Kavli Affiliate: Edward Callaway | Authors: Rachel M. Cassidy, Angel V. Macias, Willian N. Lagos, Chiamaka Ugorji and Edward M. Callaway | Summary: Corticocortical (CC) projections in the visual system facilitate the hierarchical processing of sensory information. In addition to direct CC connections, indirect cortico-thalamo-cortical (CTC) pathways through the pulvinar nucleus of the thalamus can […]
