Investigating the sightline of a highly scattered FRB through a filamentary structure in the local Universe

Kavli Affiliate: Kiyoshi W. Masui | First 5 Authors: Kaitlyn Shin, Calvin Leung, Sunil Simha, Bridget C. Andersen, Emmanuel Fonseca | Summary: Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are unique probes of extragalactic ionized baryonic structure as each signal, through its burst properties, holds information about the ionized matter it encounters along its sightline. FRB 20200723B is […]

Bridge the Points: Graph-based Few-shot Segment Anything Semantically

Kavli Affiliate: Anqi Zhang| Summary:The recent advancements in large-scale pre-training techniques have significantly enhanced the capabilities of vision foundation models, notably the Segment Anything Model (SAM), which can generate precise masks based on point and box prompts. Recent studies extend SAM to Few-shot Semantic Segmentation (FSS), focusing on prompt generation for SAM-based automatic semantic segmentation. […]
