Data-Efficient Low-Complexity Acoustic Scene Classification via Distilling and Progressive Pruning

Kavli Affiliate: Jia Liu | First 5 Authors: Bing Han, Wen Huang, Zhengyang Chen, Anbai Jiang, Pingyi Fan | Summary: The goal of the acoustic scene classification (ASC) task is to classify recordings into one of the predefined acoustic scene classes. However, in real-world scenarios, ASC systems often encounter challenges such as recording device mismatch, […]

Superposition- and interference-induced optical spectrum distortion in the figure-9 fiber laser

Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Xiang Zhang, Guochao Wang, Kangrui Chang, Haobin Zheng, Yongzhuang Zhou | Summary: The spectrum of the output pulses from the figure-9 laser typically exhibits more distortion than the spectra from mode-locked lasers based on other saturable absorbers and the spectrum of its intracavity pulses. Here, we demonstrate […]

Evidence for a shock-compressed magnetic field in the northwestern rim of Vela Jr. from X-ray polarimetry

Kavli Affiliate: Herman L. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Dmitry A. Prokhorov, Yi-Jung Yang, Riccardo Ferrazzoli, Jacco Vink, Patrick Slane | Summary: Synchrotron X-ray emission has been detected from nearly a dozen young supernova remnants (SNRs). X-rays of synchrotron origin exhibit linear polarization in a regular, non-randomly oriented magnetic field. The significant polarized X-ray emission […]

A simple accurate way to model noise-seeded ultrafast nonlinear processes

Kavli Affiliate: Frank Wise | First 5 Authors: Yi-Hao Chen, Frank Wise, , , | Summary: Noise can play an important role in nonlinear pulse propagation. It is not only the origin of fluctuations in supercontinuum but can also determine the generated signal amplitude and phase, as seen in phenomena such as noise-seeded four-wave mixing […]

Drosophila Trus, the orthologue of mammalian PDCD2L, is required for proper cell proliferation, larval developmental timing, and oogenesis

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Goldberg | Authors: Saeko Takada, Bonnie J. Bolkan, MaryJane O’Connor, Michael Goldberg and Michael B. O’Connor | Summary: Toys are us (Trus) is the Drosophila ortholog of mammalian Programmed Cell Death 2-Like (PDCD2L), a protein that has been implicated in ribosome biogenesis, cell cycle regulation, and oncogenesis. In this study, we examined […]

Encoding manifolds constructed from grating responses organize responses to natural scenes in cortical visual areas

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Stryker | Authors: Luciano Dyballa, Greg D Field, Michael P Stryker and Steven W Zucker | Summary: We have created “encoding manifolds” to reveal the overall responses of a brain area to a variety of stimuli. Encoding manifolds organize response properties globally: each point on an encoding manifold is a neuron, and […]

Improving Galaxy Cluster Selection with the Outskirt Stellar Mass of Galaxies

Kavli Affiliate: Eli Rykoff | First 5 Authors: Matthew Kwiecien, Tesla Jeltema, Alexie Leauthaud, Song Huang, Eli Rykoff | Summary: The number density and redshift evolution of optically selected galaxy clusters offer an independent measurement of the amplitude of matter fluctuations, $S_8$. However, recent results have shown that clusters chosen by the redMaPPer algorithm show […]
