Kavli Affiliate: Luis C. Ho | First 5 Authors: Ze-Zhong Liang, Jing Wang, Hua Gao, Luis C. Ho, E. Athanassoula | Summary: Non-axisymmetric structures, such as bars and spiral arms, are known to concentrate molecular gas and star formation in galaxy centers, actively building up the pseudo-bulges. However, a direct link between the neutral (i.e., […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Zhiqiang Kou, Haoyuan Xuan, Jing Wang, Yuheng Jia, Xin Geng | Summary: Label Distribution Learning (LDL) is a novel machine learning paradigm that addresses the problem of label ambiguity and has found widespread applications. Obtaining complete label distributions in real-world scenarios is challenging, which has led to […]
Kavli Affiliate: Zheng Zhu | First 5 Authors: Guosheng Zhao, Chaojun Ni, Xiaofeng Wang, Zheng Zhu, Xueyang Zhang | Summary: Closed-loop simulation is essential for advancing end-to-end autonomous driving systems. Contemporary sensor simulation methods, such as NeRF and 3DGS, rely predominantly on conditions closely aligned with training data distributions, which are largely confined to forward-driving […]

Kavli Affiliate: Long Zhang | First 5 Authors: Xiao-Dong Lin, Long Zhang, , , | Summary: While non-Hermitian (NH) topological phases and phenomena have been observed across various quantum systems, directly measuring NH topological invariants remains a significant challenge. In this study, we present a generic and unified framework for the direct measurement of various […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Shihan Lin, Yi Zhou, Xiao Zhang, Todd Arnold, Ramesh Govindan | Summary: Despite efforts from cloud and content providers to lower latency to acceptable levels for current and future services (e.g., augmented reality or cloud gaming), there are still opportunities for improvement. A major reason that traffic […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael Miller | Authors: Emmanuel C Ijezie, Michael J Miller, Celine Hardy, Ava R Jarvis, Timothy Czajka, Lianna D’Brant, Natasha Rugenstein, Adam Waickman, Eain Murphy and David Butler | Summary: INTRODUCTION Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) infection alters critical markers of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) in neurons. One key marker of AD is the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Cheng Peng | First 5 Authors: Jingxiang Sun, Cheng Peng, Ruizhi Shao, Yuan-Chen Guo, Xiaochen Zhao | Summary: We introduce DreamCraft3D++, an extension of DreamCraft3D that enables efficient high-quality generation of complex 3D assets. DreamCraft3D++ inherits the multi-stage generation process of DreamCraft3D, but replaces the time-consuming geometry sculpting optimization with a feed-forward multi-plane […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: Genta Indra Winata, Frederikus Hudi, Patrick Amadeus Irawan, David Anugraha, Rifki Afina Putri | Summary: Vision Language Models (VLMs) often struggle with culture-specific knowledge, particularly in languages other than English and in underrepresented cultural contexts. To evaluate their understanding of such knowledge, we introduce WorldCuisines, a massive-scale […]
Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | First 5 Authors: Zifan Lin, Saverio Cambioni, Sara Seager, , | Summary: Some exoplanets have much higher densities than expected from stellar abundances of planet-forming elements. There are two theories – metal-rich formation hypothesis and naked core hypothesis – that explain how formation and evolution can alter the compositions and […]
